Post-Employment Restrictions 17.1 For the duration of your employment with the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months after the termination thereof for any cause, you shall not:
Post-Employment Covenants (a) Executive hereby reaffirms and agrees to abide by all confidentiality and nondisclosure obligations, nonsolicitation obligations, noncompetition obligations and any other post-employment obligations to which Executive is subject under any contract or agreement between Executive and the Company as well as the Illinois Trade Secrets Act, any other Illinois statute and Illinois common law.
Restrictive Covenant Agreement The Company’s obligations under this Agreement, including the Company’s agreement to provide severance and to allow Employee to participate in the other compensation programs as provided on Schedule A, is conditioned on Employee signing a Restrictive Covenant Agreement in the form of Schedule B (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”).
Non-Competition Covenant Employee acknowledges that the covenants set forth in this Section 4.3 are reasonable in scope and essential to the preservation of the Business of the Company (as defined herein). Employee also acknowledges that the enforcement of the covenant set forth in this Section 4.3 will not preclude Employee from being gainfully employed in such manner and to the extent as to provide a standard of living for himself or herself, the members of his or her family and the others dependent upon Employee of at least the level to which Employee and they have become accustomed and may expect. In addition, Employee acknowledges that the Company has obtained an advantage over its competitors as a result of its name, location and reputation that is characterized by near permanent relationships with vendors, customers, principals and other contacts which it has developed at great expense. Furthermore, Employee acknowledges that competition by him or her following the termination or expiration of his or her employment would impair the operation of the Company beyond that which would arise from the competition of an unrelated third party with similar skills. Employee hereby agrees that he or she shall not, during his or her employment and for a period of one (1) year after the end of his or her employment, directly or indirectly, engage in or become directly or indirectly interested in any proprietorship, partnership, firm, trust, company, limited liability company or other entity, other than the Company (whether as owner, partner, trustee, beneficiary, stockholder, member, officer, director, employee, independent contractor, agent, servant, consultant, lessor, lessee or otherwise) that competes with the Company in the Business of the Company in the Restricted Territory (as defined herein), other than owning an interest in a company listed on a recognized stock exchange in an amount which does not exceed five percent (5%) of the outstanding stock of such corporation. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the term "Business of the Company" shall include all business activities and ventures related to providing telecommunications services or products in which the Company is engaged, plans to engage in the next twelve (12) months following termination of Employee's employment or has engaged in during the prior twelve (12) months, as determined at any time during the employment of the Employee; and (ii) the term "Restricted Territory" means the geographical area consisting of a seventy mile radius surrounding each city (and including such city) in which the Company maintains either an office or a telecommunications facility.
Restrictive Covenant The Employer and the Executive have jointly reviewed the tenant lists, property submittals, logs, broker lists, and operations of the Employer, and have agreed that as an essential ingredient of and in consideration of this Agreement and the payment of the amounts described in Sections 3 and 4 hereof, the Executive hereby agrees that, except with the express prior written consent of the Employer, for a period equal to the lesser of the number of FULL months the Executive has at any time been employed by the Employer or twenty-four (24) months after the termination of the Executive's employment with the Employer (the "Restrictive Period"), he will not directly or indirectly compete with the business of the Employer, including, but not by way of limitation, by directly or indirectly owning, managing, operating, controlling, financing, or by directly or indirectly serving as an employee, officer or director of or consultant to, or by soliciting or inducing, or attempting to solicit or induce, any employee or agent of Employer to terminate employment with Employer and become employed by any person, firm, partnership, corporation, trust or other entity which owns or operates a business similar to that of the Employer (the "Restrictive Covenant"). For purposes of this subparagraph (a), a business shall be considered "similar" to that of the Employer if it is engaged in the acquisition, development, ownership, operation, management or leasing of suburban office property (i) in any geographic market or submarket in which the Employer owns more than 750,000 s.f. of properties either as of the date hereof or as of the date of termination of the Executive's employment. If the Executive violates the Restrictive Covenant and the Employer brings legal action for injunctive or other relief, the Employer shall not, as a result of the time involved in obtaining such relief, be deprived of the benefit of the FULL period of the Restrictive Covenant. Accordingly, the Restrictive Covenant shall be deemed to have the duration specified in this paragraph (a) computed from the date the relief is granted but reduced by the time between the period when the Restrictive Period began to run and the date of the first violation of the Restrictive Covenant by the Executive. In the event that a successor of the Employer assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement or otherwise acquires the Employer, this Restrictive Covenant shall continue to apply only to the primary service area of the Employer as it existed immediately before such assumption or acquisition and shall not apply to any of the successor's other offices or markets. The foregoing Restrictive Covenant shall not prohibit the Executive from owning, directly or indirectly, capital stock or similar securities which are listed on a securities exchange or quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System which do not represent more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding capital stock of any corporation.
Prior Employment Agreement Effective as of the Agreement Date, this Agreement supersedes any prior employment agreement between the Employee and the Company.
Non-Competition Period The "non-competition period" shall begin on January 1, 2011 and shall end twelve (12) months after the Employee’s termination of employment; provided, however, that the “non-competition period” shall end on the date Employee’s employment ends in the event of Employee’s termination for “good reason” (as defined in paragraph 6(d)), or Employee’s termination without “cause” (as defined in paragraph 3(d)).
Certain Restrictive Covenants The Executive covenants and agrees with the Company and each Affiliate of the Company as follows:
Restrictive Covenant Agreements The Executive agrees to be bound by the Invention and Non-Disclosure Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A and the Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B (Exhibit A and Exhibit B together referred to as the “Restrictive Covenant Agreements”), each of which are incorporated by reference herein. The provisions of the Restrictive Covenant Agreements shall survive the term of this Agreement pursuant to the terms set forth in Exhibit A or Exhibit B, as applicable.
Overbreadth of Restrictive Covenant It is the intention of the parties that if any restrictive covenant in this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be overly broad, then the court should enforce such restrictive covenant to the maximum extent permitted under the law as to area, breadth and duration.
