Each such Annual Bonus shall be payable, to the extent earned, on, or at such date as is determined by the Board within 120 days following, the last day of the fiscal year with respect to which it relates. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3(b)

Company or the Executive, as applicable, without any breach of this Agreement only under the following circumstances:

(b) Notice of Termination. Any termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company or by the Executive under this Section 4 (other than a termination pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) above) shall be communicated by a written notice to the other party hereto (a “Notice of Termination”): (i) indicating the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, and (ii) specifying a Date of Termination which, if submitted by the Executive, shall be at least thirty (30) days following the date of such notice; provided, however, that a Notice of Termination delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii) shall not be required to specify a Date of Termination, in which case the Date of Termination shall be determined pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii); and provided, further, that in the event that the Executive delivers a Notice of Termination to the Company, the Company may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the Date of Termination to any date that occurs following the date of Company’s receipt of such Notice of Termination (even if such date is prior to the date specified in such Notice of Termination). A Notice of Termination submitted by the Company (other than a Notice of Termination under Section 4(a)(ii)) may provide for a Date of Termination on the date the Executive receives the Notice of Termination, or any date thereafter elected by the Company in its sole discretion. The failure by the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Cause shall not waive any right of the Company hereunder or preclude the Company from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Company’s rights hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a termination pursuant to Section 4(a)(iii) shall be deemed to occur if following Executive’s termination of employment for any reason the Company determines that circumstances existing prior to such termination would have entitled to the Company to terminate Executive’s employment pursuant to Section 4(a)(iii) (disregarding any applicable cure period).
5. Company Obligations Upon Termination of Employment
(a) In General. Upon a termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, the Executive (or the Executive’s estate) shall be entitled to receive: (i) any portion of the Executive’s Annual Base Salary through the Date of Termination not theretofore paid, (ii) any expenses owed to the Executive under Section 3(d), (iii) any accrued but unused vacation pay owed to the Executive in accordance with applicable law, and (iv) any amount arising from the Executive’s participation in, or benefits under, any employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements under Section 3(c), which amounts shall be payable in accordance with the terms and conditions of such employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 5(b) below, the payments and benefits described in this Section 5(a) shall be the only payments and benefits payable in the event of the Executive’s termination of employment for any reason.
(b) Severance Payments. In the event of the Executive’s termination of employment by the Company without Cause pursuant to Section 4(a)(iv) or by the Executive for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4(a)(v), in addition to the payments and benefits described in Section 5(a) above, the Company shall, subject to Section 21 and Section 5(c) and subject to Executive’s execution and non-revocation of a waiver and release of claims agreement in the Company’s customary form (a “Release”), as of the Release Expiration Date, in accordance with Section 21(c):
(i) Continue to pay the Executive’s Annual Base Salary during the period beginning on the Date of Termination and ending on the one (1) year anniversary
6
of the Date of Termination (the “Severance Period”) in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practice as of the Date of Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that within twelve (12) months of a Change of Control of the Company, the Executive is terminated by the Company without Cause pursuant to Section 4(a)(iv) or by the Executive for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4(a)(v) (a “Change of Control Termination”), then the Company shall continue to pay the Executive’s Annual Base Salary during the period beginning on the Date of Termination and ending on the two (2) year anniversary of the Date of Termination (the “Change of Control Severance Period”); and
(ii) Pay (A) the Annual Bonus for any completed fiscal year as of the Date of Termination that has not yet been paid as of the Date of Termination (the “Prior Year Bonus”), if any, and (B) a pro-rated portion of the Annual Bonus for the year in which the Date of Termination occurs, with such proration being based on the number of full months for which the Executive was employed during such year prior to such Date of Termination (such pro-rated bonus, the “Pro-Rated Bonus” and, collectively with the Prior Year Bonus, the “Bonus Severance Payment”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Change of Control Termination, the Bonus Severance Payment shall instead be equal to the sum of (X) the Prior Year Bonus, if any, and (Y) the product of (I) two (2), multiplied by (II) the Pro-Rated Bonus The bonuses described in this Section 5(b)(ii) shall be payable, to the extent earned, on, or at such date as is determined by the Board within 120 days following, the last day of the fiscal year with respect to which it relates, as set forth in Section 3(b).
(iii) During the Severance Period or the Change of Control Severance Period, as applicable, if the Executive elects to continue coverage under the Company’s group health plan in accordance with the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), continue coverage for the Executive and any eligible dependents under the Company group health benefit plans in which the Executive and any dependents were entitled to participate immediately prior to the Date of Termination. In the event Executive elects to continue with COBRA coverage, provided, that Employee timely submits to the Company evidence of Executive’s payments made to the COBRA administrator, the Company will reimburse Executive for the Company’s share of the premiums associated therewith in an amount equal to what the Company pays for the health insurance premiums of other executive level employees at the Company. The COBRA health continuation period under Section 4980B of the Code shall run concurrently with the period of continued coverage set forth in this Section 5(b)(ii); provided, however, that in the event Employee obtains other employment that offers group health benefits, such continuation of COBRA coverage by the Company under this Section 5(b)(ii) shall immediately cease.
(c) Breach of Restrictive Covenant Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no payment shall be made or benefit provided pursuant to Section 5(b) following the date Executive first violates the Restrictive Covenant Agreement and, in the event of such a violation, Executive shall repay to the Company any benefit provided pursuant to Section 5(b) within ninety (90) days of such violation.
7
(d) Complete Severance. The provisions of this Section 5 shall supersede in their entirety any severance payment or benefit obligations to the Executive pursuant to the provisions in any severance plan, policy, program or other arrangement maintained by the Company.
6. Restrictive Covenant Agreement. The Executive acknowledges that Executive is, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, entering into an agreement with the Company containing confidentiality, non-solicitation, non-competition, intellectual property assignment, and other protective covenants (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement” attached hereto as Exhibit A) and that the Executive shall be bound by the terms and conditions of the Restrictive Covenant Agreement.
7. Injunctive Relief. The Executive recognizes and acknowledges that a breach of the covenants contained in the Restrictive Covenant Agreement will cause irreparable damage to the Company and its goodwill, the exact amount of which will be difficult or impossible to ascertain, and that the remedies at law for any such breach will be inadequate. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that, in the event of a breach of any of the covenants contained in the Restrictive Covenant Agreement, in addition to any other remedy which may be available at law or in equity, the Company will be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief.

(b) Separation from Service under Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement: (i) no amount shall be payable pursuant to Section 5(b) unless the termination of Executive’s employment constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Department of Treasury Regulations; (ii) for purposes of Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive installment payments pursuant to Section 5(b) shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments; and (iii) to the extent that any reimbursement of expenses or in-kind benefits constitutes “deferred compensation” under Section 409A, such reimbursement or benefit shall be provided no later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of expenses
11
reimbursed in one year shall not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement in any subsequent year. The amount of any in-kind benefits provided in one year shall not affect the amount of in-kind benefits provided in any other year. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Executive is deemed at the time of his separation from service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the termination benefits to which the Executive is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of the Executive’s termination benefits shall not be provided to the Executive prior to the earlier of (x) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the Executive’s “separation from service” with the Company (as such term is defined in the Treasury Regulations issued under Section 409A of the Code) or (y) the date of the Executive’s death; upon the earlier of such dates, all payments deferred pursuant to this sentence shall be paid in a lump sum to the Executive, and any remaining payments due under the Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein.
(c) Release. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent that any payments of “nonqualified deferred compensation” (within the meaning of Section 409A) due under this Agreement as a result of Executive’s termination of employment are subject to Executive’s execution and delivery of a Release, (i) the Release shall be reasonable and drafted in good faith, (ii) the Company shall deliver the Release to Executive within ten (10) business days following the Date of Termination, and the Company’s failure to deliver a Release prior to the expiration of such ten (10) business day period shall constitute a waiver of any requirement to execute a Release, (iii) if Executive fails to execute the Release on or prior to the Release Expiration Date (as defined below) or timely revokes his acceptance of the Release thereafter, Executive shall not be entitled to any payments or benefits otherwise conditioned on the Release, and (iv) in any case where the Date of Termination and the Release Expiration Date fall in two separate taxable years, any payments required to be made to Executive that are conditioned on the Release and are treated as nonqualified deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A shall be made in the later taxable year. For purposes of this Section 21(c), “Release Expiration Date” shall mean the date that is twenty-one (21) days following the date upon which the Company timely delivers the Release to Executive, or, in the event that Executive’s termination of employment is “in connection with an exit incentive or other employment termination program” (as such phrase is defined in the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967), the date that is forty-five (45) days following such delivery date. To the extent that any payments of nonqualified deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) due under this Agreement as a result of Executive’s termination of employment are delayed pursuant to Section 5(b) and this Section 21(c), such amounts shall be paid in a lump sum on the first payroll date following the date that Executive executes and does not revoke the Release (and the applicable revocation period has expired) or, in the case of any payments subject to Section 21(c)(iv), on the first payroll period to occur in the subsequent taxable year, if later.
22. Compensation Recovery Policy. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent the Company adopts any clawback or similar policy pursuant to the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or otherwise, and any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, he shall take all action necessary or appropriate to comply with such policy (including, without limitation, entering into any further agreements, amendments or policies necessary or appropriate to implement and/or enforce such policy).
12
23. Whistleblower Protection and Trade Secrets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing in this Agreement prohibits Executive from reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any United States governmental agency or entity in accordance with the provisions of and rules promulgated under Section 21F of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 806 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, or any other whistleblower protection provisions of state or federal law or regulation (including the right to receive an award for information provided to any such government agencies). Furthermore, in accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 1833, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement: (a) Executive shall not be in breach of this Agreement, and shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law (i) for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal; and (b) if Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Executive may disclose the trade secret to Executive’s attorney, and may use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if Executive files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

EXHIBIT A
RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS AGREEMENT
THIS RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated as of the 7th day of July, 2020, is made between GoHealth, Inc. (“GoHealth”), GoHealth Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Partnership” and, together with GoHealth and any subsidiaries, parent companies or affiliates of GoHealth or the Partnership, the “Company”), and Xxxxx Xxxx (the “Executive”), a resident of the State of Illinois.
RECITALS
A. The Company and the Executive have entered into that certain Employment Agreement dated the date hereof (the “Employment Agreement”).
B. The Executive possesses extensive knowledge and experience regarding the business of the Company and shall benefit from the Employment Agreement.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, which includes the Company’s agreement to employ or continue to employ Executive under the Employment Agreement and all payments and benefits available to Executive under the Employment Agreement, and in specific consideration for the Company’s agreement to provide the bonus payments set forth in the Employment Agreement, which Executive acknowledges and agrees is valid and sufficient consideration for the following covenants in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Confidential Information; Non-Disclosure.
a. Non-Use and Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that Executive currently holds and has access to proprietary and confidential information of the Company and its subsidiaries. Executive hereby covenants and agrees that neither Executive nor any of Executive’s Affiliates (as hereinafter defined) will, at any time, divulge, furnish or make accessible to anyone or use in any way other than in the ordinary course of the business of the Company or its subsidiaries, any confidential, proprietary or secret knowledge or information of the Company that Executive has acquired or shall acquire about the Company or its subsidiaries, whether developed by Executive or by others, including, without limitation, knowledge or information concerning (i) any trade secrets, (ii) any confidential, proprietary or secret designs, programs, processes, formulae, plans, devices or material (whether or not patented or patentable) directly or indirectly useful in any aspect of the business of the Company or its subsidiaries, (iii) any customer or supplier lists, (iv) any confidential, proprietary or secret development or research work, (v) any strategic or other business, marketing or sales plans, (vi) any financial data or plans, or (vii) any other confidential or proprietary information or secret aspects of the business of the Company or its subsidiaries. Executive acknowledges that the above-described knowledge and information constitutes a unique and valuable asset of the Company and its subsidiaries and represents a substantial investment of time and expense by the
Company and its subsidiaries, and that any disclosure or other use of such knowledge or information other than for the sole benefit of the Company or its subsidiaries would be wrongful and may cause irreparable harm to the Company and its subsidiaries (“Confidential Information”). Executive shall take reasonable steps to protect the confidentiality of all Confidential Information. The foregoing obligations of confidentiality shall not apply to any knowledge or information that (i) is now or subsequently becomes generally publicly known, other than as a result of the breach of this Agreement, (ii) is independently made available to Executive in good faith by a third party who has not violated a confidential relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (iii) is required to be disclosed by law or legal process. Executive understands and agrees that his obligations under this Agreement to maintain the confidentiality of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ Confidential Information are in addition to any obligations of Executive under applicable statutory or common law. For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” shall mean any person or entity directly or indirectly controlled by the Executive.
b. Company Property. As between the Company and Executive, all Confidential Information will remain the exclusive property of the Company, including, but not limited to, all financial, commercial, operational, technical or business information or data received, obtained, or prepared by Executive in connection with Executive’s employment or engagement and concerning the Company’s business, and all copies and abstracts thereof. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment or engagement with the Company for any reason, Executive will not retain, take, remove, or copy any such property of the Company or any materials containing any Confidential Information whatsoever, and Executive will promptly return all such property and materials to the Company no later than Executive’s termination date or earlier upon the Company’s request.
c. Exceptions; Notice of Legal Obligation to Disclose. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits Executive from filing a charge with, reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to, participating in any investigation by, or otherwise cooperating with any governmental agency or from making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable law or regulation. Further, nothing herein prevents Executive from disclosing Confidential Information if and to the extent required pursuant to any valid subpoena, court order, or other legal obligation; provided, however, Executive agrees to provide prompt written notice of any such subpoena, court order, or other legal obligation prior to disclosing any Confidential Information (unless such notice to the Company is prohibited by applicable law), enclosing a copy of the subpoena, court order or other documents describing the legal obligation. In the event that the Company objects to the disclosure of Confidential Information, by way of a motion to quash or otherwise, Executive agrees to not disclose any Confidential Information while any such objection is pending.
d. Defend Trade Secrets Act Disclaimer. In compliance with the requirements of the Defend Trade Secrets Act, Executive understands that: (i) Executive will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, (ii)
Executive will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal and (iii) if Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Executive may disclose trade secrets to Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if Executive: (a) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (b) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.
2. Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation Covenants.
a. Agreement Not to Compete. Except for Executive’s direct and indirect ownership of the Company, for a period starting as of the date hereof and ending on such date which is one (1) year after Executive’s Date of Termination (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or, in the event of a Change of Control Termination (as defined in the Employment Agreement), such date which is two (2) years after Executive’s Date of Termination (the “Restricted Period”), Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, own, invest in, lend money to, acquire or hold any interest in, render services to, act as agent for, or otherwise engage in any business, in the United States or in any other location in which the Company is then doing business, that is competitive with any business conducted by or under active consideration by the Company or its subsidiaries at any time during the period that the Executive is an employee, director or direct or indirect shareholder of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (the “Protected Business”), it being acknowledged by Executive that the Protected Business includes the design, sale, marketing, or distribution of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ products and services. Ownership by Executive, as a passive investment, of less than two percent (2%) of the outstanding shares of capital stock of any corporation listed on a national securities exchange or publicly traded in the over-the-counter market shall not constitute a breach of this Section 2(a).
b. Agreement Not to Solicit Employees. Executive represents and warrants that Executive has not, directly or indirectly, solicited for employment for any entity or person (other than for the Company) any current employee, consultant or other independent contractor of the Company. For the Restricted Period, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, hire, engage, solicit or attempt to solicit any person who is then an employee, consultant or independent contractor of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company.
c. Agreement Not to Solicit Others. Executive represents and warrants that Executive has not, directly or indirectly, solicited any customer, supplier, distributor or other business contact referred to below for the purposes set forth below (other than on behalf of the Company). For the Restricted Period, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, in any manner or capacity, including without limitation as a proprietor, principal, agent, partner, officer, director, stockholder, employee, member of any association, consultant or otherwise, (x) solicit or attempt to solicit any person or entity who was a customer of the Company during the last twelve (12) months immediately preceding the date hereof or is a customer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company during the Restricted Period, for the purposes of selling, marketing or distributing products or services similar to the products or services designed, sold, marketed or distributed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and (y) solicit, request, advise or induce any supplier,
distributor or other business contact of the Company or any subsidiary to cancel, curtail or otherwise adversely change its relationship with the Company or its subsidiaries as it relates, directly or indirectly, to the Protected Business.
d. Acknowledgment. Executive hereby acknowledges that the provisions of this Section 2 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company and that any violation of this Section 2 by Executive may cause substantial and irreparable harm to the Company to such an extent that monetary damages alone would be an inadequate remedy therefor.
e. Assistance is Prohibited. Executive further agrees that Executive will not, directly or indirectly, assist or encourage any other person in carrying out, directly or indirectly, any activity that would be prohibited by the above provisions of this Section 2 if such activity were carried out by Executive, directly or indirectly, or induce any employee, or former employee of the Company to carry out, directly or indirectly, any such activity.
f. Blue Pencil Doctrine. If the duration of, the scope of or any business activity covered by any provision of this Section 2 is in excess of what is determined to be valid and enforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be construed to cover only that duration, scope or activity that is determined to be valid and enforceable. Executive hereby acknowledges that this Section 2 shall be given the construction which renders its provisions valid and enforceable to the maximum extent, snot exceeding its express terms, possible under applicable law.
3. Non-Disparagement. The Executive agrees not to disparage the Company, any of its products, services, or practices, or any of its directors, officers, agents, representatives, partners, members, equity holders, or affiliates, either orally or in writing, at any time; provided, that the Executive may confer in confidence with the Executive’s legal representatives and make truthful statements as required by law.
4. Ownership of Inventions.
a. Inventions. Subject to the limitations in Section 4(c) below, the Company will own all rights, title and interest in and to (i) any invention, innovation, manufacturing process, trade secret, design, idea or improvement related, directly or indirectly, to the Company’s business, or any part thereof, and (ii) all copyrights, patents, trademarks and trade names which Executive develops or creates, in whole or in part in the course of Executive’s employment or engagement with the Company (referred to as “Inventions”). Subject to the limitations in Section 4(c) below, Executive will, and hereby does, assign to the Company, without requirement of further writing and without royalty or any other further consideration, my entire right, title and interest throughout the world in and to all Inventions created, conceived, made, developed, and/or reduced to practice by Executive in the course of Executive’s employment or engagement with the Company and all intellectual property rights therein. Executive will promptly tell the Company about and give the Company all information relating to any such Inventions. Executive acknowledges that all original works of authorship which are made by Executive (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of Executive’s employment or engagement with the
Company and which are eligible for copyright protection are “works made for hire” as that term is defined in the United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C., Section 101). Executive hereby waives, and agrees to waive, any moral rights Executive may have in any copyrightable work Executive creates or has created on behalf of the Company. Executive will make and maintain adequate and current written records of all Inventions covered by this Section 4(a). These records may be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, flow charts, electronic data or recordings, notebooks and any other format. These records shall be and remain the property of the Company at all times and shall be made available to the Company at all times.
b. Cooperation. Executive will cooperate with the Company in obtaining, maintaining and enforcing copyright, patent, trademark or other relevant protections for Inventions covered by Section 4(a), including executing such documents as the Company may request as necessary for such protection.
c. Executive Inventions. Executive acknowledges that the Company will not own, and the assignment of Inventions set forth in Section 4(a) above does not apply to, Inventions for which no equipment, supplies, facility, or trade secret information of Company were used and which was developed entirely on Executive’s own time (“Executive Inventions”), unless (i) the Invention relates (a) to the Company’s business or (b) to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, or (ii) the Invention results from any work performed by Executive for the Company. If Executive believes an Invention qualifies as an Executive Invention, Executive will provide the Company at the time of creation written evidence to substantiate such belief. If Executive incorporates any Executive Inventions or portions thereof into any Inventions created or developed for the Company, Executive hereby grants the Company a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, transferable license to copy, modify, prepare derivative works of, use, perform, and display such Executive Invention solely in connection with the Invention.
5. Enforcement. Executive hereby specifically acknowledges and agrees that the scope of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement is reasonable and necessary to ensure that the Company receives the value of the Employment Agreement and that violation of this Agreement will harm the Company to such an extent that monetary damages alone would be an inadequate remedy. Therefore, in the event of any violation by Executive or any Affiliate:
a. the Company (in addition to all other remedies the Company may have) shall be entitled to a temporary restraining order, injunction and other equitable relief (without posting any bond or other security) restraining the violator from committing or continuing such violation,
b. in the case of any violation of Section 2 hereof, as determined by a final judgment of court of competent jurisdiction, the duration of the non-compete period referred to therein shall be extended beyond its then-scheduled termination date for a period equal to the duration of the violation, and
c. in the event that the Company must enforce this Agreement pursuant to this Section 5, the Company shall be entitled to recover from Executive its reasonable costs associated therewith, including all reasonable attorneys’ and court fees.
6. Use of Name. Neither Executive nor any Affiliate shall use the name “GoHealth,” any variants thereof, or any confusingly similar name, in any business (other than the Company) in which any of them is associated as shareholder, investor, lender, partner, co-venturer, co-marketer, sole proprietor, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant, independent contractor or in any other capacity.
7. No Violation of Other Agreements. Executive hereby represents and agrees that neither (a) Executive’s entering into this Agreement nor (b) Executive’s carrying out the provisions of this Agreement, will violate any other agreement (oral, written or other) to which Executive is a party or by which Executive is bound.
8. At-Will Employment; No Contract of Employment. Nothing herein shall be deemed to create a contract of employment for any term. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive’s employment with the Company is and shall remain at all times at will, unless otherwise specified by the Employment Agreement.
9. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Executive, the Company and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns (including without limitation any assignee of substantially all of the assets of the Company); provided, however, that this Agreement may not be assigned by Executive.
10. Complete Agreement. This Agreement contains the complete agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the matters covered herein, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties hereto with respect to such matters. This Agreement may be amended, terminated or superseded only by an agreement in writing executed by both parties hereto.
11. Partial Invalidity. If any covenant or other provision of this Agreement is deemed invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or of any public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and no covenant or provision shall be deemed dependent upon any other covenant or provision unless so expressed herein.
12. No Waiver. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel to enforce any provision of this Agreement, except by a statement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver or estoppel is sought. Any written waiver shall not be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated, shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived.
13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but both of which shall constitute but one instrument.
14. Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not be deemed to be a part of this Agreement or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
15. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing delivered personally or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, as follows:
