Release Agreement Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement to the contrary, in order to receive the vesting acceleration provided under Section 6(a)(4)(A) or the severance benefits provided under Section 6(b)(1), (2), or (3), the Executive must first execute an appropriate release agreement (on a form provided by the Company) whereby the Executive agrees to release and waive, in return for such vesting acceleration or severance benefits, any claims that Executive may have against the Company or any of its Affiliates including, without limitation, for unlawful discrimination (e.g., Title VII of the Civil Rights Act); provided, however, such release agreement shall not release any claim or cause of action by or on behalf of the Executive for (a) any payment or benefit that may be due or payable under this Agreement or any vested benefits under any employee benefit plan or program or (b) non-payment of salary or benefits to which Executive is entitled from the Company as of the Termination Date. The release agreement must be provided to Executive within five (5) days following the Termination Date, and signed by Executive and returned to the Company, and any applicable revocation period must have expired, no later than sixty (60) days following the Termination Date; provided, however, the second release agreement required for an Anticipatory Termination Payment under Section 6(b)(1)(B) must be provided to Executive within five (5) days following the Change in Control Date, and signed by Executive and returned to the Company, and any applicable revocation period must have expired, no later than sixty (60) days following the Change in Control Date. Any payments to which Executive becomes entitled pursuant to Section 6(b)(1), shall be paid within ten (10) days after the executed release agreement (or executed second release agreement with respect to an Anticipatory Termination Payment) has been timely returned to the Company for counter-signature and become effective and non-revocable by Executive under the terms of the release agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any severance payments or benefits provided under Section 6(a)(4)(A) or Section 6(b) are deferred compensation under Code Section 409A, and are not otherwise exempt from the application of Section 409A, then, if the period during which Executive may consider and sign the release agreement spans two calendar years, the severance payments or benefits will not be made or begin until the later calendar year.
Non-Disturbance Agreement (a) If Owner mortgages, charges or otherwise encumbers the Site, Owner shall notify Project Co and, at the request of Project Co, provide Project Co with an agreement executed by the mortgagee of the Site, permitting Project Co, Lender and Lender’s Consultant to access and use the Site under the licence granted pursuant to Section 9.1(a) and the Lender’s Direct Agreement, respectively, free from interference from the mortgagee or any person claiming by or through the mortgagee. This Section 9.5 shall not apply in respect of any portion of the Site or Facility used or developed pursuant to Section 9.2(b) if neither the licence granted pursuant to Section 9.1(a) nor the Work pertain to such portion of the Site.
Noncompetition Agreement (a) Employee shall not, during the term of his employment hereunder, be engaged in any other business activity pursued for gain, profit or other pecuniary advantage if such activity interferes with Employee's duties and responsibilities hereunder. The foregoing limitations shall not be construed as prohibiting Employee from making personal investments in such form or manner as will neither require his services in the operation or affairs of the companies or enterprises in which such investments are made nor violate the terms of this paragraph 3. Employee will not, during the period of his employment by or with Employer, and for a period of two (2) years immediately following the termination of his employment under this Agreement, except as provided below, directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, persons, company, partnership, corporation or business of whatever nature:
(i) engage, as an officer, director, shareholder, owner, partner, joint venturer, or in a managerial capacity, whether as an employee, independent contractor, consultant or advisor, or as a sales representative, in any business in direct competition with Employer or the Company within 100 miles of where the Company or any of its subsidiaries conduct business, including any territory serviced by the Company or any of such subsidiaries (the "TERRITORY");
(ii) call upon any person who is, at that time, an employee of Employer or the Company (including the respective subsidiaries thereof) in a sales or managerial capacity for the purpose or with the intent of enticing such employee away from or out of the employ of Employer or the Company (including the respective subsidiaries thereof);
(iii) call upon any person or entity which is, at that time, or which has been, within one (1) year prior to that time, a customer of the Company (including the respective subsidiaries thereof) for the purpose of soliciting or selling products or services in direct competition with the Company; or
(iv) call upon any prospective acquisition candidate, on Employee's own behalf or on behalf of any competitor, which candidate was, to Employee's actual knowledge after due inquiry, either called upon by Employer or the Company (including the respective subsidiaries thereof) or for which Employer or the Company made an acquisition analysis for the purpose of acquiring such entity or all or substantially all of such entity's assets. Notwithstanding the above, the foregoing covenant shall not be deemed to prohibit Employee from acquiring as a passive investment not more than two percent (2%) of the capital stock of a competing business the stock of which is traded on a national securities exchange or on an over-the -counter or similar market.
(b) Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses to Employer or the Company as a result of a breach of the foregoing covenant, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that could be caused to Employer or the Company for which they would have no other adequate remedy, Employee agrees that the foregoing covenant may be enforced by Employer or the Company in the event of breach or threatened breach by Employee, by injunctions, restraining orders and other appropriate equitable relief.
(c) It is agreed by the parties that the foregoing covenants in this paragraph 3 impose a reasonable restraint on Employee in light of the activities and business of the Company (including the Company's subsidiaries) on the date of the execution of this Agreement and the current plans of the Company (including the Company's subsidiaries); but it is also the intent of the Company and Employee that such covenants be construed and enforced in accordance with the changing activities, business and locations of the Company (including the Company's subsidiaries) throughout the term of this covenant, whether before or after the date of termination of the employment of Employee. For example, if, during the term of this Agreement, the Company (including the Company's subsidiaries) engages in new and different activities, enters a new business or establishes new locations for its current activities or business in addition to or other than the activities or business enumerated under the Recitals above or the locations currently established therefor, then Employee will be precluded from soliciting the customers or Employees of such new activities or business or from such new location and from directly competing with such new business within 100 miles of its then-established operating location(s) through the term of this covenant. It is further agreed by the parties hereto that, in the event that Employee shall cease to be employed hereunder, and shall enter into a business or pursue other activities not in competition with the Company (including the Company's subsidiaries), or similar activities or business in locations the operation of which, under such circumstances, does not violate clause (i) of paragraph 3(a), Employee shall not be chargeable with a violation of this paragraph 3 if the Company (including the Company's subsidiaries) shall thereafter enter the same, similar or a competitive (i) business, (ii) course of activities or (iii) location, as applicable.
(d) The covenants in this paragraph 3 are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the provisions of any other covenant. Moreover, in the event any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time or territorial restrictions set forth herein are unreasonable, then it is the intention of the parties that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent which the court deems reasonable, and this Agreement shall thereby be reformed.
(e) All of the covenants in this paragraph 3 shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of Employee against Employer or the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Employer or the Company of such covenants. It is specifically agreed that the period of two (2) years following termination of employment stated at the beginning of this paragraph 3, during which the agreements and covenants of Employee made in this paragraph 3 shall be effective, shall be computed by excluding from such computation any time during which Employee is in violation of any provision of this paragraph 3.
