The Participant and the Employer also acknowledge that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Exhibit A by the Participant, and the Employer or its affiliates shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this Exhibit A by terminating payments then owing to the Participant under the Executive Severance Plan (or to recoup payments previously made thereunder) or otherwise and to specific performance and injunctive

relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened breach. Such remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a breach of this Exhibit A but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity, including the recovery of damages from the Participant and the Participant’s agents.

5.    Reasonableness; Enforcement. The Participant hereby represents that the Participant has read and understands, and agrees to be bound by, the terms of this Exhibit A. The Participant acknowledges that the geographic scope and duration of the covenants contained in this Exhibit A are the result of arm’s-length bargaining and are fair and reasonable in light of (a) the nature and wide geographic scope of the Company’s operations of the Business, (b) the Participant’s contact with the Company’s business in all jurisdictions in which it is conducted, which includes the entire Restricted Area, and (c) the amount of confidential information that the Participant is receiving in connection with the performance of the Participant’s duties on behalf of the Employer and/or its affiliates and the amount of goodwill with which the Participant is and/or will be connected and will help build on behalf of the Employer and its affiliates. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Exhibit A be enforced to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, whether now or hereafter in effect; therefore, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the Participant and the Employer hereby waive any provision of applicable Legal Requirements that would render any provision of this Exhibit A invalid or unenforceable.

6.    Reformation; Severability. The Employer and the Participant agree that the foregoing restrictions are reasonable under the circumstances and that any breach of the covenants contained in this Exhibit A would cause irreparable injury to the Employer and its affiliates. The Participant understands that the foregoing restrictions may limit the Participant’s ability to engage in certain businesses anywhere in the Restricted Area during the Prohibited Period, but acknowledges that the Participant will receive sufficient consideration from the Employer and its affiliates to justify such restriction. Further, the Participant acknowledges that the Participant’s skills are such that the Participant can be gainfully employed in non-competitive employment and that the agreement not to compete will not prevent the Participant from earning a living. Nevertheless, if any of the aforesaid restrictions are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable, or overly broad as to geographic area or time, or otherwise unenforceable, the parties intend for the restrictions herein set forth to be modified by the court making such determination so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified, to be fully enforced. If, due to applicable law, a court is not permitted to modify a restriction within this Exhibit A that it deems overly broad, then the court shall have the power to, and shall, sever such overly broad restriction (or any portion thereof) so that the restrictions after such severance are enforceable and shall be fully enforced. By agreeing to this contractual modification prospectively at this time, the Employer and the Participant intend to make this Exhibit A enforceable under the law or laws of all applicable states and other jurisdictions so that the entire agreement not to compete and this Agreement as prospectively modified shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be rendered void or illegal. Such modification shall not affect the payments made to the Participant under the Executive Severance Plan.

7.    Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that it is necessary for either party to employ the services of an attorney in the course of litigation or arbitration regarding a breach or alleged breach of this Exhibit A, the prevailing party in such litigation or arbitration (as determined by the court or arbitrator, as applicable), shall be entitled to recover all reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection therewith.

8.    Applicable Law; Venue. This Participation Agreement is governed by Texas law, without giving effect to its conflicts of law principles. The Participant consents to the jurisdiction of the Harris County District State Court in Houston, Texas, although the Company may choose to seek enforcement of the Restrictive Covenants in any jurisdiction where the Participant may be found.
