practice (in whole or in part) by the Executive or under his direction or
jointly with others during the Employment Period, whether or not during normal
working hours or on the premises of the Corporation (collectively,

employment, the computation of the time period provided herein shall be tolled
from the first date of the breach until the earlier of (1) the date judicial
relief is obtained by the Corporation, (2) the Corporation states in writing
that it will seek no judicial relief for said violation, or (3) the Executive
provides satisfactory evidence to the Corporation that such breach has been
remedied. If, at any time, the provisions of this Section 5(d) shall be
determined to be invalid or unenforceable, by reason of being vague or
unreasonable as to area, duration or scope of activity, this Section 5(d) shall
be considered divisible and shall become and be immediately amended to only such
area, duration and scope of activity as shall be determined to be reasonable and
enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over the matter; and
the Executive agrees that this Section 5(d) as so amended shall be valid and
binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included
herein. For purposes of this Section 5, Executive and the Corporation agree
that:

“Competitive Business” shall mean (i) the inmate telephone business, (ii) the
business of selling, leasing or otherwise providing law enforcement or offender
management systems, jail management systems and/or other tracking or record
systems to inmate, jail, probationary or correctional facilities, (iii) the
billing, collection and/or validation business within the inmate telephone
industry, and/or (iv) any material line of business that the Corporation or any
of its subsidiaries are engaged in on the date of termination, expiration or
non-extension of the Employment Period; and

“Post-Employment Non-Competition Period” shall mean the two (2) year period
immediately following the expiration or earlier termination of the Employment
Period.

 

(e)       Non-Competition in Expansion Markets. The Executive acknowledges that
a valuable asset of the Corporation is the plan of the Corporation to extend and
expand its business, by acquisition or otherwise, to areas of the United States
of America which the Corporation does not yet serve as of the date hereof.
Accordingly, during (i) the Executive’s employment with the Corporation and (ii)
Post-Employment Non-Competition Period, the Executive shall not engage, anywhere
in the United States of America, directly or indirectly, alone, in association
with or as a shareholder, principal, agent, partner, officer, director,
executive or consultant of any other organization, in any Competitive Business.
If the Executive violates any of the provisions of this Section 5(e), following
his termination of employment, the computation of the time period provided
herein shall be tolled from the first date of the breach until the earlier of
(1) the date judicial relief is obtained by the Corporation, (2) the Corporation
states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for said violation, or
(3) the Executive provides satisfactory evidence to the Corporation that such
breach has been remedied. If, at any time, the provisions of this Section 5(e)

unreasonable as to area, duration or scope of activity, this Section 5(e) shall
be considered divisible and shall become and be immediately amended to only such
area, duration and scope of activity as shall be determined to be reasonable and
enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over the matter; and
the Executive agrees that this Section 5(e) as so amended shall be valid and
binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included
herein.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(f)        No other Agreements. The Executive hereby represents that the
Executive is not bound by the terms of any agreement with any previous employer
or other party to refrain from using or disclosing any trade secret or
confidential or proprietary information in the course of the Executive’s
employment with the Corporation or to refrain from competing, directly or
indirectly, with the business of such previous employer or any other party. The
Executive further represents that his performance of all of the terms of this
Agreement does not and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence
proprietary information, knowledge or data acquired by the Executive in
confidence or in trust prior to the date of this Agreement, and the Executive
will not disclose to the Corporation or any subsidiary or knowingly induce the
Corporation or any subsidiary to use any confidential or proprietary information
or material belonging to any previous employer of the Executive or to any other
person or entity. The Executive hereby indemnifies and agrees to defend and hold
the Corporation and its subsidiaries harmless from and against any and all
damages, liabilities, losses, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting or arising directly from any breach of the
representations and covenants contained in this Section 5(f).

(g)       Continuing Operation. Any termination of the Executive’s employment or
of this Agreement shall have no effect on the continuing operation of this
Section 5.

(h)       Legitimate Business Interests. The Executive has carefully read and
considered the provisions of this Section 5 and, having done so, agrees that the
restrictions set forth herein, including, without limitation, the time and
geographic restrictions set forth above, are fair and reasonable and are
reasonably required for the protection of the legitimate business interests and
goodwill of the Corporation.

(i)        Remedies. If the Executive breaches, or threatens to commit a breach
of any of the provisions contained in Sections 5(a) through 5(f) (the

remedies, each of which shall be enforceable, and each of which is in addition
to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the
Corporation at law or in equity.

(i)        The Executive shall account for and pay over to the Corporation all
compensation, profits, and other benefits which inure to the Executive’s benefit
which are derived or received by the Executive or any person or business entity
controlled by the Executive, or his relatives, resulting from any action or
transactions constituting a breach of any of the Restrictive Covenants.

(ii)       Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5(i)(i) above, the
Executive acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a violation or threatened
violation of any of the Restrictive Covenants, the Corporation shall have no
adequate remedy at law and shall therefore be entitled to enforce each such
provision by temporary or permanent injunction or mandatory relief obtained in
any court of competent jurisdiction without the necessity of proving damages,
posting any bond or other security, and without prejudice to any other rights
and remedies that may be available at law or in equity, and the Corporation
shall also be entitled to recover its attorneys’ fees and costs incurred to
enforce any of the Restrictive Covenants from the Executive.

such notice to cure such misconduct. However, no notice or cure period shall be
required if Executive’s disregard of his duties has materially and adversely
