The Company and Executive desire to enter into an agreement pursuant
to which Executive will purchase from the Company, and the Company will sell
585,585.59 of the Company's Common Units (the "COMMON UNITS"). The Common Units
acquired by Executive pursuant to SECTION 1(a) of this Agreement are referred to
herein as "CARRIED UNITS". Certain definitions are set forth in SECTION 9 of

The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, Employer
and Executive is a condition to the purchase of the Company's Class B Preferred
Units and Common Units by GTCR Fund VII, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
("GTCR FUND VII"), GTCR Fund VII/A, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("GTCR

CO-INVEST", together with GTCR Fund VII, GTCR Fund VII/A and any other
investment fund managed by GTCR Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, L.L.C., each an "INVESTOR" and
collectively, the "INVESTORS") pursuant to a unit purchase agreement between the
Company and the Investors dated as of the date hereof (the "PURCHASE
AGREEMENT"). Certain provisions of this Agreement are intended for the benefit
of, and will be enforceable by, the Investors.
Employer desires to employ Executive on the terms and conditions set
forth herein, and Executive is willing to accept such employment on such terms
and conditions.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained
herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as
follows:
PROVISIONS RELATING TO CARRIED UNITS
1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF CARRIED UNITS.
(a) Upon execution of this Agreement, Executive will purchase, and
the Company will sell, 585,585.59 Common Units at a price of $0.0333 per unit.
The Company will deliver to Executive copies of the certificates representing
such Common Units, and Executive will deliver to the Company a cashier's or
certified check or wire transfer of immediately available funds in an aggregate
amount of $19,500 as payment for such Common Units.
(b) Within 30 days after the purchase of the Carried Units hereunder,
Executive will make an effective election with the Internal Revenue Service
under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder in the form of EXHIBIT A attached hereto.
(c) Until the occurrence of a Sale of the Company, any certificates
evidencing Carried Units shall be held by the Company for the benefit of
Executive and the other holder(s) of Carried Units. Upon the occurrence of a
Sale of the Company, the Company will return any such certificates for the
Carried Units to the record holders thereof. Upon the occurrence of a Public
Offering, the Company will return to the record holders thereof any certificates
representing Vested Units.
(d) In connection with the purchase and sale of the Carried Units,
Executive represents and warrants to the Company that:
(i) The Carried Units to be acquired by Executive pursuant to
this Agreement will be acquired for Executive's own account and not with a
view to, or intention of, distribution thereof in violation of the
Securities Act, or any applicable state securities laws, and the Carried
Units will not be disposed of in contravention of the Securities Act or any
applicable state securities laws.
(ii) Executive is an executive officer of the Employer or a
Subsidiary, is sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate
the risks and benefits of the investment in the Carried Units.
(iii) Executive is able to bear the economic risk of his
investment in the Carried Units for an indefinite period of time because
the Carried Units have not been registered under the Securities Act and,
therefore, cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the
Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.
(iv) Executive has had an opportunity to ask questions and
receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of
Carried Units and has had full access to such other information concerning
the Company as he has requested.
(v) This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Executive does not
and will not conflict with, violate or cause a breach of any agreement,
contract or instrument to which Executive is a party or any judgment, order
or decree to which Executive is subject.
(vi) Executive is a resident of the State of Florida.
(e) As an inducement to the Company to issue the Carried Units to
Executive, and as a condition thereto, Executive acknowledges and agrees that
neither the issuance of the Carried Units to Executive nor any provision
contained herein shall entitle Executive to remain in the employment of the
Company, Employer or their respective Subsidiaries or affect the right of the
Company, Employer or their respective Subsidiaries to terminate Executive's
employment at any time for any reason.
(f) Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Executive
shall execute in blank ten security transfer powers in the form of EXHIBIT B
attached hereto (the "SECURITY POWERS") with respect to the Carried Units and
shall deliver such Security Powers to the Company. The Security Powers shall
authorize the Company to assign, transfer and deliver
2
the Carried Units to the appropriate acquiror thereof pursuant to SECTION 3
below and SECTION 6 of the Securityholders Agreement and under no other
circumstances.
(g) Executive is neither a party to, nor bound by, any other
employment agreement, consulting agreement, noncompete agreement,
nonsolicitation agreement or confidentiality agreement.
2. VESTING OF CARRIED UNITS.
(a) The Carried Units shall be subject to vesting in the manner
specified in this SECTION 2. Except as otherwise provided in SECTION 2(b) below,
5% of the Carried Units will become vested on each Quarter Date such that on
February 14, 2007 the Carried Units will be 100% vested, in each case, however,
if and only if as of each such Quarter Date Executive has been continuously
employed by the Company, Employer or any of their respective Subsidiaries from
the date of this Agreement through and including such Quarter Date.
(b) Upon the occurrence of a Sale of the Company, all Carried Units
that have not yet become vested shall become vested at the time of such event,
if as of the date of such event Executive is still employed by the Company,
Employer or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Carried Units that have become
vested are referred to herein as "VESTED UNITS." All Carried Units that have not
vested are referred to herein as "UNVESTED UNITS."
3. REPURCHASE OPTION.
(a) In the event Executive ceases to be employed by the Company,
Employer or their respective Subsidiaries for any reason (the "SEPARATION"), the
Carried Units (whether held by Executive or one or more of Executive's
transferees, other than the Company and the Investors) will be subject to
repurchase, in each case by the Company and the Investors pursuant to the terms
and conditions set forth in this SECTION 3 (the "REPURCHASE OPTION"). The
Company may assign its repurchase rights set forth in this SECTION 3 to any
Person; PROVIDED that the Company may not assign to any Person its right to pay
any portion of the Repurchase Price for Carried Units repurchased hereunder in
the form of Class A Preferred, as set forth in SECTION 3(e).
(b) In the event of a Separation: (i) the purchase price for each
Unvested Unit will be the lesser of (A) Executive's Original Cost for such Unit
and (B) the Fair Market Value of such Unit as of the date of Separation; and
(ii) the purchase price for each Vested Unit will be the Fair Market Value of
such unit as of the date of the Separation.
(c) The Board may elect to purchase all or any portion of the
Unvested Units or the Vested Units by delivering written notice (the "REPURCHASE
NOTICE") to the holder or holders of the Carried Units within one year after the
Separation. The Repurchase Notice will set forth the number of Unvested Units
and Vested Units to be acquired from each holder, the aggregate consideration to
be paid for such units and the time and place for the closing of the
transaction. The number of Carried Units to be repurchased by the Company shall
first be satisfied to the extent possible from the Carried Units held by
Executive at the time of delivery of the Repurchase Notice. If the number of
Carried Units then held by Executive is less than the total number of Carried
Units which the Company has elected to purchase, the Company shall
3
purchase the remaining Carried Units elected to be purchased from the other
holder(s) of Carried Units under this Agreement, pro rata according to the
number of Carried Units held by such other holder(s) at the time of delivery of
such Repurchase Notice (determined as nearly as practicable to the nearest
unit). The number of Unvested Units and Vested Units to be repurchased hereunder
will be allocated among Executive and the other holders of Carried Units (if
any) pro rata according to the number of Carried Units to be purchased from such
Person.
(d) If for any reason the Company does not elect to purchase all of
the Carried Units pursuant to the Repurchase Option, the Investors shall be
entitled to exercise the Repurchase Option for all or any portion of the Carried
Units the Company has not elected to purchase (the "AVAILABLE UNITS"). As soon
as practicable after the Company has determined that there will be Available
Units, but in any event within ten months after the Separation, the Company
shall give written notice (the "OPTION NOTICE") to the Investors setting forth
the number of Available Units and the purchase price for the Available Units.
The Investors may elect to purchase any or all of the Available Units by giving
written notice to the Company within one month after the Option Notice has been
given by the Company. If the Investors elect to purchase an aggregate number
greater than the number of Available Units, the Available Units shall be
allocated among the Investors based upon the number of Common Units owned by
each Investor. As soon as practicable, and in any event within ten days after
the expiration of the one-month period set forth above, the Company shall notify
each holder of Carried Units as to the number of units being purchased from such
holder by the Investors (the "SUPPLEMENTAL REPURCHASE NOTICE"). At the time the
Company delivers the Supplemental Repurchase Notice to the holder(s) of Carried
Units, the Company shall also deliver written notice to each Investor setting
forth the number of units such Investor is entitled to purchase, the aggregate
purchase price and the time and place of the closing of the transaction. The
number of Unvested Units and Vested Units to be repurchased hereunder shall be
allocated among the Company and the Investors pro rata according to the number
of Carried Units to be purchased by each of them.
(e) The closing of the purchase of the Carried Units pursuant to the
Repurchase Option shall take place on the date designated by the Company in the
Repurchase Notice or Supplemental Repurchase Notice, which date shall not be
more than one month nor less than five days after the delivery of the later of
either such notice to be delivered. The Company will pay for the Carried Units
to be purchased by it pursuant to the Repurchase Option by first offsetting
amounts outstanding under any bona fide debts owed by Executive to the Company
and will pay the remainder of the purchase price by, at its option, (A) a check
or wire transfer of funds, (B) issuing in exchange for such securities a number
of the Company's Class A Preferred (having the rights and preferences set forth
in the LLC Agreement) equal to (x) the aggregate portion of the repurchase price
for such Carried Units to be paid by the issuance of Class A Preferred divided
by (y) 1,000, and for purposes of the LLC Agreement each such Class A Preferred
unit shall as of its issuance be deemed to have Capital Contributions (as
defined in the LLC Agreement) made with respect to such Class A Preferred unit
equal to $1,000, or (C) any combination of (A) and (B) as the Board may elect in
its discretion. Each Investor will pay for the Carried Units purchased by it by
a check or wire transfer of funds. The Company and the Investors will be
entitled to receive customary representations and warranties from the sellers
regarding such sale and to require that all sellers' signatures be guaranteed.
4
By way of example only for the purpose of clarifying the mechanics of
SECTION 3(e)(b), if the Company intends to repurchase 45,045 Carried Units by
issuance of Class A Preferred and the aggregate repurchase price determined in
accordance with this SECTION 3 is $1,500, then the Company would issue to
Executive 1.5 units of Class A Preferred and for purposes of the LLC Agreement
the whole unit of Class A Preferred issued to Executive would as of its issuance
be deemed to have Capital Contributions made for such Class A Preferred of
$1,000 and the Capital Contributions made for the one-half unit of Class A
Preferred would be $500.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, all repurchases of Carried Units by the Company pursuant to the
Repurchase Option shall be subject to applicable restrictions contained in the
Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, the Delaware General Corporation Law or
such other governing corporate law, and in the Company's and its Subsidiaries'
debt and equity financing agreements. If any such restrictions prohibit (i) the
repurchase of Carried Units hereunder which the Company is otherwise entitled to
make or (ii) dividends or other transfers of funds from one or more Subsidiaries
to the Company to enable such repurchases, then the Company may make such
repurchases as soon as it is permitted to make repurchases or receive funds from
Subsidiaries under such restrictions.
(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, if the Fair Market Value of the Carried Units is finally determined
to be an amount at least 10% greater than the per unit repurchase price for such
Carried Units in the Repurchase Notice or in the Supplemental Repurchase Notice,
each of the Company and the Investors shall have the right to revoke its
exercise of the Repurchase Option for all or any portion of the Carried Units
elected to be repurchased by it by delivering notice of such revocation in
writing to the holders of Carried Units during the thirty-day period beginning
on the date that the Company and/or the Investors are given written notice that
the Fair Market Value of Carried Units was finally determined to be an amount at
least 10% greater than the per unit repurchase price for Carried Units set forth
in the Repurchase Notice or in the Supplemental Repurchase Notice.
(h) The provisions of this SECTION 3 shall terminate with respect to
Vested Units upon the first to occur of the consummation of a Public Offering
and the consummation of a Sale of the Company.
4. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF CARRIED UNITS.
(a) TRANSFER OF CARRIED UNITS. The holders of Carried Units shall not
Transfer any interest in any Carried Units, except pursuant to (i) the
provisions of SECTION 3 hereof, (ii) the provisions of SECTION 3 of the
Securityholders Agreement (a "PARTICIPATING SALE"), (iii) an "APPROVED SALE" (as
defined in SECTION 6 of the Securityholders Agreement), or (iv) the provisions
of SECTION 4(b) below.
(b) CERTAIN PERMITTED TRANSFERS. The restrictions in this SECTION 4
will not apply with respect to any Transfer of Carried Units made (i) pursuant
to applicable laws of descent and distribution or to such Person's legal
guardian in the case of any mental incapacity or among such Person's Family
Group, or (ii) at such time as the Investors sell Common Units in a Public Sale,
but in the case of this CLAUSE (ii) only an amount of units (the "TRANSFER
AMOUNT")
5
equal to the lesser of (A) the number of Vested Units owned by Executive and (B)
the number of Common Units owned by Executive multiplied by a fraction (the
"TRANSFER FRACTION"), the numerator of which is the number of Common Units sold
by the Investors in such Public Sale and the denominator of which is the total
number of Common Units held by the Investors prior to the Public Sale; PROVIDED
that, if at the time of a Public Sale of units by the Investors, Executive
chooses not to Transfer the Transfer Amount, Executive shall retain the right to
Transfer an amount of Common Units at a future date equal to the lesser of (x)
the number of Vested Units owned by Executive at such future date and (y) the
number of Common Units owned by Executive at such future date multiplied by the
Transfer Fraction; PROVIDED further that the restrictions contained in this
SECTION 4 will continue to be applicable to the Carried Units after any Transfer
of the type referred to in clause (i) above and the transferees of such Carried
Units must agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. Any
transferee of Carried Units pursuant to a Transfer in accordance with the
provisions of this SECTION 4(b)(i) is herein referred to as a "PERMITTED
TRANSFEREE." Upon the Transfer of Carried Units pursuant to this SECTION 4(b),
the transferring holder of Carried Units will deliver a written notice (a
"TRANSFER NOTICE") to the Company. In the case of a Transfer pursuant to clause
(i) hereof, the Transfer Notice will disclose in reasonable detail the identity
of the Permitted Transferee(s).
(c) TERMINATION OF RESTRICTIONS. The restrictions set forth in this
SECTION 4 will continue with respect to each unit of Carried Units until the
earlier of (i) the date on which such Carried Units have been transferred in a
Public Sale permitted by this SECTION 4, or (ii) the consummation of an Approved
Sale.
5. ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF CARRIED UNITS.
(a) LEGEND. The certificates representing the Carried Units will bear
a legend in substantially the following form:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ORIGINALLY ISSUED
AS OF FEBRUARY 14, 2002, HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR
TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
UNDER THE ACT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER. THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO
ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, CERTAIN REPURCHASE OPTIONS AND
CERTAIN OTHER AGREEMENTS SET FORTH IN A SENIOR MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND AN EXECUTIVE OF THE COMPANY DATED AS OF
FEBRUARY 14, 2002. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED BY THE
HOLDER HEREOF AT THE COMPANY'S PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS WITHOUT
CHARGE."
(b) OPINION OF COUNSEL. No holder of Carried Units may Transfer any
Carried Units (except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act) without first delivering to the Company a written notice
describing in reasonable detail the proposed Transfer, together with an opinion
of counsel (reasonably acceptable in form and substance to
6
the Company) that neither registration nor qualification under the Securities
Act and applicable state securities laws is required in connection with such
transfer. In addition, if the holder of the Carried Units delivers to the
Company an opinion of counsel that no subsequent Transfer of such Carried Units
shall require registration under the Securities Act, the Company shall promptly
upon such contemplated Transfer deliver new certificates for such Carried Units
which do not bear the Securities Act portion of the legend set forth in SECTION
5(a). If the Company is not required to deliver new certificates for such
Carried Units not bearing such legend, the holder thereof shall not Transfer the
same until the prospective transferee has confirmed to the Company in writing
its agreement to be bound by the conditions contained in this SECTION 5.
PROVISIONS RELATING TO EMPLOYMENT

any fiscal year, Executive shall be eligible for an annual bonus of up to 50% of
the Executive's then applicable Annual Base Salary based upon the achievement by
the Company, Employer and their Subsidiaries of budgetary and other objectives
set by the Board; PROVIDED that with respect to the first year for which
Executive is eligible for a bonus, such bonus shall be paid on a pro rata basis
based upon that portion of the year that remained after the date of this

the Initial Severance Period an aggregate amount equal to 1/12th of
7
his Annual Base Salary in effect as of the end of the Employment Period, payable

the amount of any compensation Executive earns or receives with respect to any
other employment during the period in which he is receiving severance. Upon
request from time to time, Executive shall furnish Employer with a true and
complete certificate specifying any such compensation earned or received by him
while receiving any severance payments from Employer.
7. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.
(a) OBLIGATION TO MAINTAIN CONFIDENTIALITY. Executive acknowledges
that the information, observations and data obtained by him during the course of
his performance under this Agreement concerning the business and affairs of the
Company, Employer and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates are the
property of the Company, Employer or such Subsidiaries and Affiliates, including
information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the
Company's and Employer's and their respective Subsidiaries' business or industry
of which Executive becomes aware during the Employment Period. Therefore,
Executive agrees that he will not disclose to any unauthorized Person or use for
his own account any of such information, observations or data without the
Board's prior written consent, unless and to the extent that the aforementioned
matters become generally known to and available for use by the public other than
as a result of Executive's acts or omissions to act. Executive agrees to deliver
to the Company at a Separation, or at any other time the Company may request in
writing, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and
copies thereof) relating to the business of the Company, Employer and their
respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates (including, without limitation, all
acquisition prospects, lists and contact information) which he may then possess
or have under his control.
(b) OWNERSHIP OF PROPERTY. Executive acknowledges that all
inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, processes,
programs, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, and all similar or related

business, research and development, or existing or future products or services
and that are conceived, developed, contributed to, made, or reduced to practice
by Executive (either solely or jointly with others) while employed by the
Company, Employer or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates
(including any of the foregoing that constitutes any proprietary information or
records) ("WORK PRODUCT") belong to the Company, Employer or such Subsidiary or
Affiliate and Executive hereby assigns, and agrees to assign, all of the above
Work Product to the Company, Employer or to such Subsidiary or Affiliate. Any
copyrightable work prepared in whole or in part by Executive in the course of
his work for any of the foregoing
8
entities shall be deemed a "work made for hire" under the copyright laws, and
the Company, Employer or such Subsidiary or Affiliate shall own all rights
therein. To the extent that any such copyrightable work is not a "work made for
hire," Executive hereby assigns and agrees to assign to the Company, Employer or
such Subsidiary or Affiliate all right, title, and interest, including without
limitation, copyright in and to such copyrightable work. Executive shall
promptly disclose such Work Product and copyrightable work to the Board and
perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after
the Employment Period) to establish and confirm the Company's, Employer's or
such Subsidiary's or Affiliate's ownership (including, without limitation,
assignments, consents, powers of attorney, and other instruments).
(c) THIRD PARTY INFORMATION. Executive understands that the Company,
Employer and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates will receive from
third parties confidential or proprietary information ("THIRD PARTY
INFORMATION") subject to a duty on the Company's, Employer's and their
respective Subsidiaries' and Affiliates' part to maintain the confidentiality of
such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the
Employment Period and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions
of SECTION 7(a) above, Executive will hold Third Party Information in the
strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel of
the Company, Employer or their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates who need to
know such information in connection with their work for the Company, Employer or
their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates) or use, except in connection with
his work for the Company, Employer or their respective Subsidiaries or
Affiliates, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by a member of
the Board in writing.
(d) USE OF INFORMATION OF PRIOR EMPLOYERS. During the Employment
Period, Executive will not improperly use or disclose any confidential
information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other
Person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, and will not
bring onto the premises of the Company, Employer or any of their respective
Subsidiaries or Affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging
to any former employer or any other Person to whom Executive has an obligation
of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or
Person. Executive will use in the performance of his duties only information
which is (i) generally known and used by Persons with training and experience
comparable to Executive's and that is (x) common knowledge in the industry or
(y) is otherwise legally in the public domain, (ii) is otherwise provided or
developed by the Company, Employer or any of their respective Subsidiaries or
Affiliates or (iii) in the case of materials, property or information belonging
to any former employer or other Person to whom Executive has an obligation of
confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or
Person.
8. NONCOMPETITION AND NONSOLICITATION. Executive acknowledges that
in the course of his employment with Employer he will become familiar with the
Company's, Employer's and their respective Subsidiaries' trade secrets and with
other confidential information concerning the Company, Employer and such
Subsidiaries and that his services will be of special, unique and extraordinary
value to the Company and Employer and such Subsidiaries. Therefore, Executive
agrees that:
(a) NONCOMPETITION. During the Employment Period and (i) in the event
of a
9
termination of Executive's employment by Employer without Cause, the Severance
Period or (ii) in the event of a termination of Executive's employment for any
other reason, for a period of two years thereafter (collectively, the
"NONCOMPETE PERIOD"), he shall not, anywhere in the world, directly or
indirectly own, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services
for, or in any manner engage in any business relating to the provision of
interoperability solutions, clearing and settlement services, software and
network services and related services to telecommunications companies and other
third parties that compete with the businesses of the Company, Employer or their
respective Subsidiaries or any business in which the Company, Employer or any of
their respective Subsidiaries has entertained discussions or has requested and
received information relating to the acquisition of such business by the
Company, Employer or their respective Subsidiaries prior to the Separation;
PROVIDED, however, that the Executive may own up to 1% of any class of an
issuer's publicly traded securities.
(b) NONSOLICITATION. During the Noncompete Period, Executive shall
not directly or indirectly through another entity (i) induce or attempt to
induce any employee of the Company, Employer or their respective Subsidiaries to
leave the employ of the Company, Employer or such Subsidiary, or in any way
interfere with the relationship between the Company, Employer and any of their
respective Subsidiaries and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any person who was
an employee of the Company, Employer or any of their respective Subsidiaries
within one year prior to the time such employee was hired by Executive, (iii)
induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee or other business
relation of the Company, Employer or any of their respective Subsidiaries to
cease doing business with the Company, Employer or such Subsidiary or in any way
interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or
business relation and the Company and any Subsidiary or (iv) directly or
indirectly acquire or attempt to acquire an interest in any business relating to
the business of the Company, Employer or any of their respective Subsidiaries
and with which the Company, Employer and any of their respective Subsidiaries
has entertained discussions or has requested and received information relating
to the acquisition of such business by the Company, Employer or any of their
respective Subsidiaries in the two-year period immediately preceding a
Separation.
(c) ENFORCEMENT. If, at the time of enforcement of SECTION 7 or this
SECTION 8, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable
under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum
duration, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall
be substituted for the stated period, scope or area and that the court shall be
allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum
duration, scope and area permitted by law. Because Executive's services are
unique and because Executive has access to confidential information, the parties
hereto agree that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any breach of
this Agreement. Therefore, in the event a breach or threatened breach of this
Agreement, the Company, Employer, their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates or
their successors or assigns may, in addition to other rights and remedies
existing in their favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for
specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce, or
prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or
other security).
(d) ADDITIONAL ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. Executive acknowledges that the
provisions of this SECTION 8 are in consideration of: (i) employment with the
Employer, (ii) the
10
issuance of the Carried Units by the Company and (iii) additional good and
valuable consideration as set forth in this Agreement. In addition, Executive
agrees and acknowledges that the restrictions contained in SECTION 7 and this
SECTION 8 do not preclude Executive from earning a livelihood, nor do they
unreasonably impose limitations on Executive's ability to earn a living. In
addition, Executive acknowledges (i) that the business of the Company, Employer
and their respective Subsidiaries will be international in scope and without
geographical limitation, (ii) notwithstanding the state of incorporation or
principal office of the Company, Employer or any of their respective
Subsidiaries, or any of their respective executives or employees (including the
Executive), it is expected that the Company and Employer will have business
activities and have valuable business relationships within its industry
throughout the world, and (iii) as part of his responsibilities, Executive will
be traveling in furtherance of Employer's business and its relationships.
Executive agrees and acknowledges that the potential harm to the Company and
Employer and their respective Subsidiaries of the non-enforcement of SECTION 7
and this SECTION 8 outweighs any potential harm to Executive of its enforcement
by injunction or otherwise. Executive acknowledges that he has carefully read
