     (1) Executive (i) while employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall not, on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any person, firm, partnership, association, corporation or business organization, entity or enterprise (other than the Company or one of its Affiliates), solicit or attempt to solicit on behalf of a Competing Business customers of the Company or any of its Affiliates or induce or attempt to induce any such customers or suppliers of the Company or any of its Affiliates to cease or reduce business with the Company or any of its Affiliates, or knowingly interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier or any other business relation and the Company or any such Affiliate, and (ii) during the Restricted Period shall not, on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any person, firm, partnership, association, corporation or business organization, entity or enterprise, solicit or attempt to solicit on behalf of a Competing Business customers of the Company or any of its Affiliates with whom Executive had or made contact within the course of Executive’s employment by the Company or an Affiliate within the twenty-four month period immediately preceding the beginning of the Restricted Period, or induce or attempt to induce any such customers or suppliers of the Company or any of its Affiliates to cease or reduce business with the Company or any of its Affiliates, or knowingly interfere with any relationship between any such customer, supplier or any other business relation and the Company or any such Affiliate.

     (2) Executive (i) while employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall not, either directly or indirectly, except in the interest of the Company or any of its

Affiliates, call on, solicit or attempt to induce any other officer, employee or independent contractor of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate his or her employment or relationship with the Company or any such Affiliate and shall not assist any other person or entity in such a solicitation (regardless of whether any such officer, employee or independent contractor would commit a breach of contract by terminating his or her employment), and (ii) during the Restricted Period, shall not, either directly or indirectly, call on, solicit or attempt to induce any person who is or, during the twelve month period immediately preceding the beginning of the Restricted Period, was an officer, employee or independent contractor of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate his or her employment or relationship with the Company or any of its Affiliates and shall not assist any other person or entity in such a solicitation (regardless of whether any such officer, employee or independent contractor would commit a breach of contract by terminating his or her employment). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit any person from independently contacting Executive about employment during the Restricted Period, provided that Executive does not solicit or initiate such contact.

          (e) Non-competition Obligation. Executive, while employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates and thereafter during the Restricted Period will not, for herself or on behalf of any other person, partnership, company or corporation, directly or indirectly, acquire any financial or beneficial interest in (except as provided in the next sentence), be employed by, or own, manage, operate or control, or become a director, officer, partner, employee, agent or consultant of, any entity which is engaged in, or otherwise engage in, a Competing Business. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Executive will not be prohibited from owning less than

two percent (2%) of any publicly traded corporation, whether or not such corporation is in a Competing Business.

          (f) Nondisparagement. During the Term and at all times thereafter, Executive shall not disparage or defame to third parties the Company, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates or their respective officers or directors, or their respective employees or owners who were such employees or owners during the Term, or, during the Term and the Restricted Period only, their respective customers who were such customers during the Term. During the Term and at all times thereafter, the Company, Parent and its Affiliates and their respective officers and directors shall not disparage or defame Executive to third parties. Nothing contained in this Section 6(f) shall preclude Executive or the Company or Parent or any of the Company’s or Parent’s respective Affiliates from enforcing her or their respective rights under this Employment Agreement.

          (g) Reasonable and Continuing Obligations. Executive agrees that Executive’s obligations under this Section 6 are obligations which will continue beyond the date Executive’s employment terminates and that such obligations are reasonable, fair and equitable in scope, terms and duration, are necessary to protect the Company’s legitimate business interests and are a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Employment Agreement.

          (h) Remedy for Breach. Executive agrees that the remedies at law of the Company for any actual or threatened breach by Executive of the covenants in this Section 6 would be inadequate and that the Company shall be entitled to (i) cease or withhold payment to Executive of any severance payments or benefits described in Section 5 for which she otherwise qualifies under Section 5, and/or (ii) specific performance of the covenants in this Section 6,

including entry of a temporary restraining order in state or federal court, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against activities in violation of this Section 6, or both, or other appropriate judicial remedy, writ or order, in addition to any damages and legal expenses which the Company may be legally entitled to recover. The Company agrees to give Executive, and, if known, Executive’s attorney, notice of any legal proceeding, including any application for a temporary restraining order, relating to an attempt to enforce the covenants in this Section 6 against Executive. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants in this Section 6 shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision of this Employment Agreement or any other agreement between the Company and Executive, and that the existence of any claim or cause of action by Executive against the Company, whether predicated upon this Employment Agreement or any other agreement, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of such covenants.

          (i) Scope of Covenants. The Company and Executive further acknowledge that the time, scope, geographic area and other provisions of this Section 6 have been specifically negotiated by sophisticated parties and agree that they consider the restrictions and covenants contained in this Section 6 to be reasonable and necessary for the protection of the interests of the Company and its Affiliates, but if any such restriction or covenant shall be held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be void but would be valid if deleted in part or reduced in application, such restriction or covenant shall apply with such deletion or modification as may be necessary to make it valid and enforceable.
