For purposes of this Section 9a. any commercial bank, savings and loan association, securities broker or dealer, or other business or financial institution that offers any major service offered by Comerica as of the Separation Date , and which conducts business in Michigan, California, Texas, Arizona or Florida shall be deemed a competitor;

The request must be made in writing, describe the scope and nature of the engagement, and directed to the Comerica’s Chief Legal Officer. Any exception will be at Comerica’s sole discretion.

10.

Dispute Resolution.

	a.		Injunctive Relief. In the event of a breach or threatened breach of Sections 7, 8 or 9 of this Agreement, Executive agrees that Comerica shall be entitled to injunctive relief in a court of appropriate jurisdiction to remedy any such breach or threatened breach, and Executive acknowledges that damages would be inadequate and insufficient.
	b.		Arbitration. Except as provided in Section 10(a) hereof, in the event of any dispute between any of the Released Parties and Executive relating to Executive’s employment with or separation from employment with Comerica, the terms of and the parties’ entry into this Agreement and/or

Except as otherwise provided herein, the parties agree to abide by and perform any award rendered by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall issue the award in writing and therein state the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

In no event shall the demand for arbitration be made after the date when institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on such claim, dispute or other matter in question would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations. This agreement to arbitrate shall be specifically enforceable under the prevailing arbitration law, and shall be in accordance with the procedures

established for arbitration in the Michigan Code of Civil Procedure. Unless otherwise prohibited by law, each party shall bear its own costs in any such arbitration and shall share equally any fees or other expenses charged by the arbitrator for services rendered. The parties understand that by agreeing to arbitrate their disputes, they are giving up their right to have their disputes heard in a court of law and, if applicable, by a jury.
