WHEREAS, Executive is currently employed by the Company as its President and Chief Operating Officer; and
WHEREAS, the Company desires to secure the continued employment of Executive, and Executive desires to continue to be employed by the Company, all on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:
1. SERVICES.
1.1. Employment. During the Term (as defined below), the Company hires Executive to perform such services as the Company may from time to time reasonably request consistent with Executive’s position with the Company (as set forth in Section 1.5 hereof) and Executive’s stature and experience in the motion picture industry (the “Services”).
1.2. Location. During the Term, Executive’s Services shall be performed at the Company’s principal office in Los Angeles, California. The parties acknowledge and agree that the nature of Executive’s duties hereunder may require domestic and international travel from time to time, including without limitation, such travel to New York as his duties may require.
1.3. Term. The term of Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof (the “Commencement Date”) and, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, shall continue for a period of two (2) years thereafter (the “Term”).
1.4. Exclusivity.
1.4.1. During the Term, the Services shall be rendered on a full-time basis during normal working hours and all Services of Executive shall be exclusive to the Company and its Affiliates (as defined in Section 6.15).
1.4.2. Executive agrees that during the Term (the “Non-Compete Period”), Executive shall not, directly or indirectly: (i) engage in any business fur his own account which is competitive with the businesses of the Company or its Affiliates (collectively, “Competitive Business”) so long as the Company or its Affiliates (as the case may be) continue to engage in such business; (ii) enter the employ of, or render any services to, any person engaged in a Competitive Business; (iii) obtain an interest in a Competitive Business in any capacity, including, without limitation, as an individual, partner, shareholder, officer, director, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; (iv) induce any customer or supplier of the Company or its Affiliates to terminate its relationship with the Company or any of its Affiliates (as the case may be); or (v) hire, engage or solicit (or attempt to hire, engage or solicit) any person who is, or at any time during the six-month period preceding the solicitation was, an employee of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in this Agreement, Executive may acquire and/or retain, as an investment, and take customary actions (including the exercise or conversion of any securities or rights) to maintain and preserve Executive’s ownership of any one or more of the following (provided such actions, other than passive investment activities, do not unreasonably interfere with Executive’s Services hereunder): (i) securities of any corporation that are registered under Sections 12(b) or 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and that are publicly traded as long as Executive is not part of any control group of such corporation and, in the case of public corporations in competition with the Company, such securities do not constitute more than one percent (1%) of the voting power of that public company; (ii) any securities of a partnership, trust, corporation or other person so long as Executive remains a passive investor in that entity and so long as such entity is not, directly or indirectly, in competition with the Company; and (iii) securities of the Company or any of its Affiliates. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prevent or restrict Executive’s ownership interest in the Company and its Affiliates or Executive’s ability to render charitable or community services. Any executive producer or similar producer fees earned by Executive from a third party during the Term in connection with the Services shall be assigned by Executive to the Company, and the Company shall fully indemnify Executive with respect to any and all taxes to be paid by Executive in connection therewith (i.e., Executive shall be placed in the same after-tax position that he would have been in had such fees not been paid to Executive).
1.4.3. Executive acknowledges and agrees that his services are of a special, unique and extraordinary character and are vital to the future success and viability of the Company. Executive further acknowledges that because of the nature of the business engaged in by the Company, it is impractical and unreasonable to put a geographic limitation on the covenants contained herein.
1.5. Power and Authority.
1.5.1. During the Term, Executive shall be President and Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) of the Company. All of Executive’s powers and authority in any capacity shall at all times be subject to the direction and control of the Company’s Board of Directors and its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). Executive shall report directly to the CEO of the Company and all other employees of the Company shall report directly to the Executive, subject to the Operating Guidelines as in effect from time to time (as defined in that certain Stockholders’ Agreement, of even date herewith, by and among the Company, Executive and certain other persons, as may be amended from time to time). The Board or the CEO may assign to Executive such general management and supervisory responsibilities and executive duties for the Company or any subsidiary of the Company as are consistent with Executive’s status as President and COO. The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s primary functions and duties as President and COO shall be to manage and supervise the day-to-day administration of the Company’s business.
1.6. [Intentionally Omitted.]
1.7. Injunctive Relief. If Executive breaches, or threatens to commit a breach of, any of the provisions of Section 1.4 of this Agreement, the Company shall have the right to have such provisions specifically enforced by any court having jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and agreed that no adequate remedy of law would be available for any such breach or threatened breach. Such right and remedy shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company.
1.8. Indemnification. The Company shall at all times indemnify, defend and hold harmless Executive to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including without limitation the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, for all actions taken by Executive in good faith, on behalf of the Company, so long as such actions are not knowingly in violation of law. Without limiting the foregoing, Executive shall be entitled to the benefit of the indemnification provisions contained on the date hereof in the Bylaws of the Company and any applicable Bylaws of any Affiliate. The provisions set forth in this Section 1.8 are not intended to limit any of the provisions set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of October 31, 1996 between the Company and Executive.
