Remedies for Breach of Restrictive Covenant. If Executive violates the Restrictive Covenant and Employer brings legal action for injunctive or other relief, 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 Section 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 Executive. If a successor assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement, this Restrictive Covenant shall continue to apply only to the offices of Bank as they existed immediately before such assumption and shall not apply to any of the successor’s other offices. The Restrictive Covenant shall not prohibit Executive from owning directly or indirectly capital stock or similar securities that are listed on a securities exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market that do not represent more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding capital stock of any Financial Institution. Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Section 3 and Section 5 of this Agreement are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the legitimate business interests of Employer, that any violation of these restrictions would cause substantial injury to Employer and such interests, that Employer would not have entered into this Agreement with Executive without receiving the additional consideration offered by Executive in binding himself to these restrictions and that such restrictions were a material inducement to Employer to enter into this Agreement. If there is any violation or threatened violation of these restrictions, Employer, in addition to and not in limitation of, any other rights, remedies or damages available to Employer under this Agreement or otherwise at law or in equity, shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent or restrain any such violation by Executive and any and all persons directly or indirectly acting for or with him, as the case may be.
