Duties of Executive Subject to the approvals by and the ultimate supervision of the Board, Executive during the term hereof shall serve as Employer’s Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. Subject to the control of the Board, Executive shall have the responsibilities commensurate with Executive’s title and as otherwise provided in Employer’s bylaws and other governing documents, but in any event, construed in a manner generally consistent with the responsibilities of Executive that existed immediately prior to the Effective Date. During the period of employment hereunder, Executive shall devote to the business of Employer substantially the same amount of Executive’s time and efforts that Executive devoted to the business of Employer prior to the Effective Date; provided, however, that this Section shall not be construed as preventing Executive from investing Executive’s personal assets in business ventures that do not compete with Employer or Employer’s Affiliates (as hereinafter defined) or are not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement, and spending reasonable amounts of personal time in the management thereof. Employer acknowledges that Executive owns a material ownership interest in HealthTronics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“HTRN”), and that Executive serves as a director and may serve as an officer of HTRN. Employer agrees that Executive may continue to serve HTRN in such capacities and devote Executive’s time and efforts to such service in a manner generally consistent with the time and efforts devoted by Executive prior to the Effective Date. Consistent with the foregoing, Executive shall use Executive’s best efforts to promote the interests of Employer and Employer’s Affiliates, and to preserve their goodwill with respect to their employees, customers, suppliers and other persons having business relations with Employer. Executive agrees to accept and hold all such offices and/or directorships with Employer and Employer’s Affiliates as to which Executive may, from time to time, be elected. For purposes of this Agreement, Employer’s subsidiaries, parent companies and other affiliates are collectively referred to as “Affiliates.”
Duties and Responsibilities of Executive (a) During the Employment Period, Executive shall devote his full time and attention during normal business hours to the business of the Employers, will act in the best interests of the Employers and will perform with due care his duties and responsibilities. Executive’s duties will include those normally incidental to the positions set forth in Section 1 hereof as well as whatever additional duties may be assigned to him by the Board of Directors of MEI (the “MEI Board”), the Chief Executive Officer of MEI, the Board of Directors of MERI (the “MERI Board”), or the Chief Executive Officer of MERI. Executive agrees to cooperate fully with the MEI Board, the Chief Executive Officer of MEI, the MERI Board, and the Chief Executive Officer of MEI, and not to engage in any activity that materially interferes with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder. During the Employment Period, Executive will not hold employment other than that set forth in Section 1 hereof without the advance written approval of the Board of MEI and the Board of MERI. It shall not be a violation of this Agreement for Executive to (1) serve on corporate, civic, or charitable boards or committees (except for boards or committees of a business organization that competes with an Employer in any business in which the Employer is regularly engaged), which are listed on Exhibit A so long as such service does not materially interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, as determined in the good faith opinion of the Board of MEI and the Board of MERI, (2) manage personal investments, or (3) take vacation days and reasonable absences due to injury or illness, as set forth herein and/or permitted by the general policies of the Employers.
(b) Executive represents and covenants to the Employers that he is not subject or a party to any employment agreement, noncompetition covenant, nondisclosure agreement, or any other agreement, covenant, understanding, or restriction that would prohibit Executive from executing this Agreement and fully performing his duties and responsibilities hereunder, or would in any manner, directly or indirectly, limit or affect the duties and responsibilities that may now or in the future be assigned to Executive hereunder.
(c) Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive owes the Employers a duty of loyalty and that the obligations described in this Agreement are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the obligations Executive owes the Employers under the common law. MEI and MERI each acknowledge that Executive’s simultaneous employment with the Employers will not be considered a violation of any provision of this Section 2.
