Upon termination of employment (or sooner upon request of Employer), Employee shall promptly return all of Employer’s property to Employer. Employee agrees to permanently delete any and all Employer Confidential Information that is contained on Employee’s personal computer and devices (including without limitation, personal digital assistants and smart phones) and that is contained on any social media sites in Employee’s possession or control.

(d) Use of Employee’s Name, Image and Likeness. Employer may make use of Employee’s name, photograph, drawing or other likeness in connection with the advertising or the giving of publicity to Employer, Salem Media Group or a program broadcast or content provided by Employer, Salem Media Group or any affiliated companies.

Employee Performances are Company Intellectual Property. Employer shall solely own and have the right to broadcast, display, license, assign, or use in any manner and by any means, whether now known or hereafter devised, any Employee Performances on a royalty-free basis without additional compensation payable to Employee. Employer shall have the perpetual, royalty-free right to use, and license others to use, Employee’s name, professional name, voice and likeness for advertising, promotional, and publicity purposes in connection with Employee Performances.

(e) Non-Competition. For good consideration and as an inducement for Employer to employ Employee, the undersigned Employee hereby agrees not to directly or indirectly compete with the business of Employer and its successors and assigns during the Term of employment and for a period of six (6) months following the date of termination of employment and notwithstanding the cause or reason for termination. Upon the Commencement Date of this Memorandum, Employee will be provided one or more of the following: access to some trade secrets and Confidential Information of Employer; authorization to participate in specialized training; authorization to contact Employer’s existing and prospective clients and the ability and tools to develop substantial relationships and/or goodwill for the benefit of Employer.

The term “not compete” as used herein shall mean that the Employee shall not directly or indirectly, either individually or on behalf of or through any other person, business, enterprise or entity, own, manage, operate, consult, render services to, become employed in a management or sales capacity by a business, person or entity substantially similar to or competitive with Employer in the field of radio broadcasting or such other business activity in which Employer may substantially engage during the term of employment. This provision shall not prevent Employee from investing as less than a one (1%) percent stockholder in the securities of any company listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on an automated quotation system. Upon termination of Employee’s employment, this non-compete provision shall extend only to the geographic area of the Atlanta, Georgia Metro Survey area (as defined by Nielsen), including any audio or audio/video programming primarily targeting people in that Metro Survey area that is delivered via the Internet or mobile devices, but excluding media advertising agencies, and shall remain in full force and effect for six (6) months from the date of employment termination.

Employer and Employee specifically acknowledge and agree that the scope and duration of the provisions of this section, including the limitations with respect to time, geography and scope of activity to be restrained, are reasonable and neither Employer nor Employee anticipates that enforcement of the provisions of this section will prevent Employee from otherwise earning a living.

(f) Non-Solicitation.

(i) During the Term of Employee’s employment by Employer and for six (6) months after termination of Employee’s employment with Employer, Employee agrees not to directly or indirectly, through any other person, firm, corporation or other entity, solicit, induce, encourage or attempt to solicit, induce or encourage any salesperson or sales agent of Employer to discontinue representing Employer for the purpose of representing any competitor of Employer.

(ii) During the Term of Employee’s employment by Employer and for six months after termination of Employee’s employment with Employer, with respect to any advertiser or customer of employer as of the date of Employee’s termination that Employee has obtained or been personally involved with for Employer at any time during the two years prior to the date of Employee’s termination, Employee agrees not to directly or indirectly, through any other person, firm, corporation or other entity: (1) contact, solicit or induce business from or conduct business with such advertiser or customer; (2) interfere with, disrupt, alter or attempt to disrupt Employer’s relationship, contractual or otherwise, between Employer and such advertiser or customer; or (3) encourage or influence or attempt to encourage or influence such customer or advertiser to curtail or reduce purchasing Employer products or services or advertising or to direct any purchase of products or services to any person, firm, corporation, institution or other entity in competition with the Employer.

5

(iii) If the period of time specified in this section should be adjudged unreasonable in any proceeding, then the period of time shall be reduced by such number of months or the area shall be reduced by the elimination of such portion thereof or both, so that such restrictions may be enforced in such area and for such time as is adjudged to be reasonable. If Employee violates any of the restrictions contained in this section, the restrictive period shall not run in favor of Employee from the time of the commencement of any such violation until such time as such violation shall be cured by Employee to the satisfaction of Employer.

6. PERSONAL CONDUCT. Employee agrees to promptly and faithfully comply with all present and future policies, requirements, directions, requests and rules and regulations of Employer in connection with Employer’s business, including without limitation the policies and requirements set forth in Employer’s Employee Handbook, as in effect from time to time. Employee further agrees to comply with all laws and regulations pertaining to Employee’s employment with Employer. Employee further covenants, warrants and agrees that during the Term, Employee will not accept or agree to accept (except from Employer) or pay or agree to pay any money, provide services or receive any valuable consideration, as defined in Section 507 of the Federal Communications Act of 1934, as amended, for the broadcast by Employer or any Employer affiliate of any matter contained in any Employee Performances or in other programming. In the event such consideration has been or is offered, accepted, or paid, voluntarily or involuntarily, full disclosure must be promptly made to Employer. Employee hereby agrees not to engage in any activity that is in direct conflict with the essential interests of the Business. Employee hereby acknowledges that nothing set forth in the Employee Handbook or any other policy issued by Employer shall be deemed to create a separate contractual obligation, guarantee or inducement between Employee and Employer.

7. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

(a) Venue; Choice of Law. The Federal Arbitration Act shall govern any arbitration under this Memorandum, including the availability of arbitration of all claims between Employer and Employee. Regardless of where it is signed, this Memorandum shall be deemed to be an agreement made in the city and state where Employee’s principal work area or office is located (“Venue”) and shall be interpreted as an agreement to be performed wholly in the state where the Venue is located. Except for the application of the Federal Arbitration Act as provided in the first sentence of this paragraph, the laws of the state where the Venue is located shall be applied without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws.

(b) Resolution of Disputes.

(i) Employee acknowledges that the legal remedies for breach of the covenants contained in Section 5 of this Memorandum are inadequate, and that any violation of that Section would result in irreparable injuries to Employer. Employee therefore agrees that, in addition to any or all other remedies available to Employer in the event of a breach or a threatened breach of any covenant contained in Section 5 of this Memorandum, Employer shall be entitled, from any Court of competent jurisdiction to obtain preliminary injunctive relief to preserve Employer’s covenant rights pending arbitration without being required to post a bond, while Employer must seek in arbitration permanent injunctive relief (without being required to post a bond), an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits and other benefits resulting from such violation, any monetary damages to Employer arising from such breach or threatened breach and its attorneys’ fees and all other costs and expenses incurred by Employer in enforcement of such covenants. The parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the Venue for all such action taken by Employer for a preliminary injunction to enforce the covenants of Section 5 of this Memorandum.

6

(ii) With the exception of a suit filed by Employer to obtain a preliminary injunction to enforce the provisions of Section 5 of this Memorandum, any other controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its interpretation and all actions related in any way to any aspect of Employee’s employment (including but not limited to any potential federal, state or local statutory employment claims including but not limited to those brought under Federal and State Wage and Hour Laws, including claims that could have been brought as class actions, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, or the Age Discrimination in Employment Act), shall, unless resolved by agreement of the parties, be resolved through final and binding arbitration under the Federal Arbitration Act in the state of the Venue, in accordance with the then-existing rules of the American Arbitration Association for employment disputes, following Employee’s exhaustion of Employer’s administrative remedies. EACH OF THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. Employee understands that Employee may still file administrative charges with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, unfair labor practice charges with the National Labor Relations Board, or similar federal, state or local agency, but that upon receipt of a right-to-sue letter or similar administrative decision, Employee shall arbitrate any claim that Employee may have against Employer. Employer shall bear all of the costs associated with the Arbitration, including filing fees and any stipend for the arbitration. Employer and the Employee shall each bear its/his or her own attorney’s fees, except as otherwise awarded by the arbitrator when required by applicable law. This Agreement to arbitrate shall be specifically enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act in the state where the Venue is located. A judgment may be rendered upon the award in any court in the state where the Venue is located having jurisdiction over the matter. Alternatively, in the event that Employer and Employee agree to mediate the dispute, such mediation shall be conducted by a mediator selected jointly between the parties and shall be at Employer’s expense. Nothing in this section shall be read to preclude Employer from seeking temporary injunctive relief for the Employee’s breach or threatened breach of any obligations pursuant to Section 5 of this Memorandum.

(iii) Both Employer and Employee agree to bring any dispute in arbitration on an individual basis only, and not on a class, collective, or private attorney general representative basis. There will be no right or authority for any dispute to be brought, heard or arbitrated as a class, collective, representative or private attorney general action, or as a member in any purported class, collective, representative or private attorney general proceeding, including without limitation pending but not certified class actions (“Class Action Waiver”). PURSUANT TO THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER, EMPLOYEE WAIVES THE RIGHT TO ARBITRATE OR OTHERWISE LITIGATE CLASS ACTIONS AGAINST EMPLOYER. Disputes regarding the validity and enforceability of the Class Action Waiver may be resolved only by a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. In any case in which (1) the dispute is filed as a class, collective, representative or private attorney general action and (2) a civil court of competent jurisdiction finds all or part of the Class Action Waiver unenforceable, the class, collective, representative and/or private attorney general action must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction, but the portion of the Class Action Waiver that is enforceable shall be enforced in arbitration.

(c) Integration. This Memorandum comprises the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter and shall supersede all other prior written or oral agreements.

7

(d) Amendments and Waivers. No term or provision of this Memorandum may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated orally but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom the enforcement of such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. Any waiver shall be effective only in accordance with its express terms and conditions. Notwithstanding anything in this Memorandum to the contrary, no person other than the Chief Executive Officer or Executive Vice President of Human Resources of Employer has the capacity to amend, waive, discharge or terminate the provisions of Section 2 relating to the “at will” nature of Employee’s employment, and then, such action may only be taken in writing.

(e) Ability to Perform Duties. By signing this Memorandum, Employee confirms that Employee is able to accept this job and carry out the work that it would involve without breaching any legal restrictions on Employee’s activities, such as restrictions imposed by a current or former employer. Employee further confirms that Employee will not use or disclose any confidential information or proprietary data or materials of any kind from any former employer during the course and scope of your employment with Employer.

(f) Severability. If any provision of this Memorandum shall be held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable in any respect, such provisions shall nevertheless be enforced to the fullest extent allowed by law, and the validity of the remainder of this Memorandum shall not be affected.

(g) Survival; Modification of Terms. No change in Employee’s duties or salary shall affect, alter, or otherwise release Employee from the covenants and agreements contained herein. All post-termination covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein by Employee shall survive the expiration or termination of this Memorandum or employment under this Memorandum in accordance with their respective terms and conditions.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Memorandum effective as of January 1, 2023.

I hereby certify that the terms and conditions of this Memorandum have been reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee of Salem Media Group, Inc.
