Remedies for Breach of Restrictive Covenants. I recognize that if I breach the non-solicitation and non-competition covenants of this Restrictive Covenant Agreement (the “restrictive covenants”), CSX will suffer irreparable injury, the value of which would be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain. Accordingly, in addition to any other remedy which may be available to CSX, if I breach a restrictive covenant, the parties acknowledge and agree that CSX may seek injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction pending the resolution of the matter pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Agreement, provided that CSX simultaneously files a bona fide claim supporting its claim of breach under the arbitration procedures of the Agreement and punctually pursues the resolution of that claim. • If I breach a restrictive covenant containing a specified term, the length of the covenant shall be extended by the period of time between the inception of such a breach and the date a court of competent jurisdiction enters an injunction restraining further breach of the covenant. • If an arbiter or a court reviewing an application for injunctive relief under paragraph 3 above determines that any of the restrictive covenants are overbroad, the parties shall agree to modification of the affected restriction(s) to permit enforcement to the maximum extent allowed by law. • A waiver of any of my obligations under the restrictive covenants shall be ineffective unless it is set forth in writing and signed by me and the Vice President— Chief Human Resource & Diversity Officer for CSX Transportation. • I acknowledge that I previously agreed to the restrictive covenants and that but for my agreeing to comply with them, CSX would not have provided me with the incentive compensation opportunities I have been awarded or included me in the severance protections and benefits that I will receive under the Agreement. Accordingly, the existence of any claim by me against CSX shall not operate as a defense to CSX’s enforcement of any restrictive covenant against me. Furthermore, CSX’s waiver of one breach of this Restrictive Covenant Agreement by me does not constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach(es).
