terminated by HFF or Employee for any reason, including, but not limited to death, disability, with

(Non-Solicitation of Employees), Section 8 (Non-Disparagement) and Section 9 (Enforcement; Remedies
and Forfeitures) shall survive and continue after the term of this Agreement.
2. Responsibilities. Employee’s primary duties and obligations hereunder shall be as
directed from time to time by the General Partner of HFF as directed by the board of directors of
Publico (the “Board”) after considering the recommendations and advice of the Operating Committee
of Holdco and the managing member of the operating committee of Holdco (the “Holdco Managing

energy and best efforts to the business and affairs of HFF.
3. Compensation and Benefits. In consideration for the foregoing and for the
covenants described below, HFF agrees to provide to Employee the following compensation and
benefits:
(a) Commission and Other Income. Policies and allocations with respect to commission

recommendations and advice of the Holdco Operating Committee and Holdco Managing Member, and
Employee shall be paid in accordance with such policies and allocations.
(b) Benefits. Employee shall be provided with the welfare benefits and other fringe
benefits to the same extent and on the same terms as those benefits are provided by HFF from time

seeks payment or reimbursement, and any other information or materials, as HFF may from time to
time reasonably request.

obligated to seek other employment or be obligated to mitigate any of the amounts payable to
Employee under any of the provisions of this Agreement.

4. Non-Compete.
(a) Employee acknowledges that HFF, the General Partner, Holdco, Publico and their affiliates
and their related entities (the “Company Entities”) are engaged in a highly competitive business on
a nationwide basis, and that the Company Entities intend to expand the business by entering into
new business lines and by increasing the geographic scope domestically and potentially
internationally, and that the relationships with their Clients (as defined below), goodwill, and
Confidential Information (defined below) are extremely valuable, provide them with competitive
business advantages and are critical to their success. Employee further acknowledges and agrees
that the Company Entities have expended considerable time, money and effort to build a competitive
business which is national in scope and to develop such Client relationships, goodwill and
Confidential Information. Employee further acknowledges that, as an Employee and by virtue of his
or her employment with HFF, Employee has had and will have close contact with such Clients, has
developed and will develop relationships with such Clients and goodwill on behalf of the Company
Entities, has and will have access to, possesses and will possess and has developed and will
develop Confidential Information of and on behalf of the Company Entities. Employee therefore
understands and agrees that both the nature and scope of the covenants contained in this Section 4
as well as the covenants set forth in Sections 5, 6, 7 and 8 are reasonable and necessary for the
protection of HFF and the other Company Entities, including, without limitation, its and/or their
Client relationships, goodwill and Confidential Information, as defined and limited below.
(b) Employee understands that as an employee of HFF, Employee’s competition with any of the
Company Entities would result in irreparable harm to HFF and the other Company Entities.
Therefore, until the earlier of (i) five years from the Original Effective Date, or (ii) the second
anniversary of the Termination Date (the “Restrictive Period”), Employee agrees that he or she will
not, without the prior written consent of HFF, Compete (as defined below) with HFF or any of the
other Company Entities anywhere in or with respect to the United States where HFF or any of the
other Company Entities engages in a Competitive Business (as defined below).
(c) As used herein, except as modified below, “Compete” means to directly or indirectly own,
operate, manage, control, engage in, participate in, invest in, permit his or her name to be used
by, act as a consultant or advisor to, render services for (alone or in association with any
individual or entity, and the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors
and assign of such individual or entity (a “Person”), or otherwise assist any Person that engages
in or owns, invests in, operates, manages or controls any venture or enterprise which, directly or
indirectly, wholly or partly, engages in the business that provides services or performs functions
that are the same as, substantially similar to, or substitute for the services or functions
provided or performed by HFF and/or the other Company Entities, or in any new lines of business
considered by (meaning that a comprehensive business plan and budget were prepared by or for HFF
for consideration) and not rejected by any of the Company Entities at any time during the six (6)
month period preceding the Termination Date, in each case whether domestically or in such
international markets as considered by any of the Company Entities during such six (6) month period
(the “Competitive Business”). “Compete” shall also mean to directly or indirectly engage in any
activity or perform, develop, provide or offer any services,
3
functions or duties (in any capacity for the benefit of Employee or any other Person) which
involves or requires, or which would inevitably involve or require, the use or disclosure (partly
or wholly, intentionally or unintentionally) of any Confidential Information (as defined and
limited below) of HFF or the Company Entities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee will not be
deemed to “Compete”:
(i) Solely by reason of the performance of his duties as a full time employee or part time
employee of a commercial bank, savings and loan, savings bank, insurance company, pension fund,
investment bank or any other entity (including any Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities (CMBS)
entities) making or acquiring commercial real estate loans or acquiring commercial real estate if,
(A) Employee’s duties for such entity are limited to the origination or acquisition of commercial
real estate loans or commercial real estate for such entity or (B) such entity originates such
loans or acquires such loans or real estate with the intent of holding the loans or real estate for
its own account, or in respect of loans, selling the loans in its capacity as a principal.
(ii) If Employee shall either (A) be a principal in a business engaged in real estate
development, real estate securities or in the ownership of commercial real estate, or (B) work as a
full time or part time employee of a company or other entity engaged in real estate development,
investment in real estate securities or the ownership of commercial real estate or real estate
securities, even though in the course of Employee’s employment, Employee acquires loans, securities
and/or real estate (it being understood and agreed that in this capacity, Employee shall be
permitted to secure a loan or acquire commercial real estate from, or sell commercial real estate
to HFF’s lending relationships without violating the restrictions set forth herein).
(iii) Solely by reason of Employee’s passive ownership of any stock, bond, note, debenture,
mortgage or other security issued by any other entity if such securities are actively traded on a
stock exchange or on NASDAQ and such securities constitute less than three percent (3%) of the
total voting securities issued by such entity;
(iv) Solely by reason of Employee’s passive ownership of any stock, bond, note, debenture,
mortgage or other security that is owned by Employee as of the date hereof;
(v) Solely by reason of activities undertaken during his employment by HFF which are on behalf
of, and for the benefit of, HFF or any of the Company Entities notwithstanding that such activities
may involve engaging in transactions with or for entities that would otherwise “Compete” as defined
above; or
(vi) Solely by reason of Employee becoming employed by, or becoming a principal in, any entity
involved in residential home sales brokerage and mortgage banking, provided that none of the
Company Entities are engaged in such activities as of the Termination Date or considered (meaning
that a comprehensive business plan and budget were prepared for consideration) and did not reject
engaging in such activities at any time during the six (6) month period preceding the Termination
Date.
4
(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Employee from owning less than 1% of the publicly
traded stock of any Person that Competes with HFF or any of the Company Entities; provided that
Employee shall have no special voting rights, board representation or other oversight or
information rights with respect to such Person (except as generally available to all stockholders
of such Person).
(e) This Section 4 shall not apply in the event that Employee’s employment is terminated by
HFF without Cause. “Cause” shall mean: (i) gross misconduct or gross negligence in the performance
of Employee’s duties hereunder; (ii) conviction of a crime; (iii) significant nonperformance or
misperformance of Employee’s duties hereunder; (iv) material violation of policies and procedures
established by HFF (including, without limitation, material violations of policies concerning
disclosure of confidential information, sexual harassment, and travel and entertainment
reimbursement); and (v) material violation of the covenants of this Agreement. Cause shall be
determined by the Board after consideration of the recommendations and advice of the Holdco
Operating Committee and Holdco Managing Member; provided, however, that if Cause is being
determined with respect to any member of the Holdco Operating Committee or Holdco Managing Member,
then such member or Holdco Managing Member shall not participate in such determination.
5. Non-Disclosure.
(a) Employee acknowledges that, by reason of his or her employment with HFF, Employee has been
and will be given access to, has developed and will develop, and has and will become informed of,

products, services, plans and strategies, business relationships, employees, Clients, prospects and
financial affairs, which is not generally known to the public or in the trade, is a competitive

Information” shall not include (i) information that is or hereafter becomes generally available to

reasonably have been expected to acquire in similar work with another company, or (iii) contact
information, lists (including but not limited to internal mailing lists) and other similar

prior to employment by HFF or (B) Employee acquired or developed as a result of Employee’s own
business generation efforts.
(b) Employee shall at all times during and after his or her employment hold all such
Confidential Information in trust and confidence for HFF and shall not, directly or indirectly, use

precautions to assure that all such Company Materials are properly protected and kept from
unauthorized persons, use or disclosure due to any action or inaction of Employee. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, materials related to matters and information that was acquired or
developed prior to commencing employment with HFF shall not be Company Materials and shall not
constitute Confidential Information for any purpose hereunder. Employee further agrees to deliver
the same, including all copies, promptly to HFF on the Termination Date, or at any time that HFF
may request. In the event Employee is uncertain whether any given material or information is,
constitutes or contains Confidential Information, Employee agrees to consult the General Partner
for resolution.

from such a breach may not readily be susceptible to being measured or ascertained in monetary
terms. Accordingly, Employee acknowledges, consents and agrees that, in addition to any other
rights or remedies which the Company Entities may have at law, in equity or under any agreement,
the Company Entities, without proof of actual damage, will be entitled to immediate injunctive
relief and may obtain a temporary or permanent injunction or order restraining any threatened or
further breach.

reasonable to protect the Company Entities in the conduct of their business, their Client

covenant and restriction in this Agreement is intended to be severable. If a court of competent

overbroad, unreasonable, invalid, void, unenforceable or against public policy, then, (i) if such
term, provision, covenant or restriction is found to be overbroad, unreasonable, invalid, void,
unenforceable or against public policy because of the duration, scope of activities restricted, or
geographic scope set forth in this Agreement, or for any other reason, the parties hereto agree
that the duration, scope of activities restricted, or geographical scope, as the case may be, or
any other provision hereof, shall be reduced, reformed or modified (and enforced as so reduced,
reformed or modified) so that such term, provision, covenant and restriction is enforceable and
enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law; and (ii) the remainder of the terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and
shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.
