Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from (i) engaging in personal investment activities for himself and his family that do not give rise to any conflict of interests with the Company or its affiliates, (ii) subject to prior approval of the Company, acting as a director or in a similar role for an entity unrelated to the Company if such role does not give rise to any conflict of interests with the Company or its affiliates and (iii) engaging in charitable and civic activities, in each case provided that such activities do not interfere with the performance of his duties hereunder.

The Company shall take all reasonable action, including taking reasonable steps to obtain applicable approval if necessary, to cause any payments under this Agreement, to qualify for the exemption from the definition of “parachute payment” described in Section 280G(b)(5), to the extent applicable. If, however, Executive is entitled to receive payments and benefits under this Agreement and if, when combined with the payments and benefits Executive is entitled to receive under any other plan, program or arrangement of Company or an Affiliate, Executive would be subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code or Company would be denied a deduction under Section 280G of the Code, then the severance amounts otherwise payable to Executive under this Agreement will be reduced by the minimum amount necessary to ensure that Executive will not be subject to such excise tax and Company will not be denied any such deduction.
