7.14. Suspension of Payments Upon Termination. If as of the date his employment
terminates, Executive is a “key employee” within the meaning of Section 416(i) of the Code,
without regard to paragraph 416(i)(5) thereof, and the Company has stock that is publicly
traded on an established securities market or otherwise, any deferred compensation payments
otherwise payable because of employment termination will be suspended until, and will be
paid to Executive on, the first day of the seventh month following the month in which
Executive’s last day of employment occurs. For purposes of this Section 7.14, “deferred

8. Non-Disclosure. Executive acknowledges that during the course of Executive’s employment by
the Company Executive will be creating, making use of, acquiring, and/or adding to confidential

suppliers and other contacts, marketing plans, business plans, financial data, and personnel
information. Executive covenants and agrees that Executive shall not, at any time during

Company (or its affiliates). Upon the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, or
at the Company’s request, Executive shall immediately deliver to the Company any and all records,
documents, or electronic data (in whatever form or media), and all copies thereof, in Executive’s

acknowledges and agrees that his obligations under this Section shall survive the expiration or
termination of this Agreement and the cessation of his employment with the Company for whatever
reason.



9. Restrictive Covenants. Executive acknowledges that in connection with his employment with
the Company he has provided and will continue to provide executive-level services that are of a
unique and special value and that he has been and will continue to be entrusted with confidential

acknowledges that the Company and its affiliates are engaged in highly competitive businesses and
that the Company and its affiliates expend substantial amounts of time, money and effort to develop
trade secrets, business strategies, customer relationships, employee relationships and goodwill,
and Executive has benefited and will continue to benefit from these efforts. Therefore, as an
essential part of this Agreement, Executive agrees and covenants to comply with the following
restrictive covenants.

regularly traded in an over-the-counter market.




9.2. Non-Solicitation of Customers. During Executive’s employment with the Company and
for two (2) years from the date of termination of employment, Executive will not provide,
sell, market or endeavor to provide, sell or market any Competing Products/Services to any

Customers for the purpose of selling or providing any Competing Products/Services. For
purposes of this Agreement, the term “Competing Products/Services” means any products or
services similar to or competitive with the products or services offered by the Company or
any of its subsidiaries. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Company’s Customers”
means any person or entity that has engaged in any banking services with, or has purchased
any products or services from, the Company or any of its subsidiaries at any time during the
Executive’s employment.




9.3. Non-Interference With Customers. During Executive’s employment with the Company

Company and for two (2) years from the date of termination of
employment, Executive will not solicit, recruit, hire, employ or attempt to hire or
employ, or assist anyone in the recruitment or hiring of, any person who is then an employee
of the Company, or urge, influence, induce or seek to induce any employee of the Company to
terminate his/her relationship with the Company.




9.6. Direct or Indirect Activities. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the
covenants contained in this Section 9 prohibit Executive from engaging in certain activities
directly or indirectly, whether on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other person
or entity, and regardless of the capacity in which Executive is acting, including without
limitation as an employee, independent contractor, owner, partner, officer, agent,
consultant, or advisor.




9.7. Survival of Restrictive Covenants. Executive acknowledges and agrees that his
obligations under this Section 9 shall survive the expiration or termination of this
Agreement and the cessation of his employment with the Company for whatever reason.




9.8. Extension. In the event Executive violates any of the restrictive covenants
contained in this Section 9, the duration of such restrictive covenant shall automatically
be extended by the length of time during which Executive was in violation of such
restriction.




9.9. Severability; Modification of Restrictions. Although Executive and the Company
consider the restrictions contained in this Section 9 to be reasonable, particularly given
the competitive nature of the Company’s business and Executive’s position with the Company,
Executive and the Company acknowledge and agree that: (a) if any covenant, subsection,
portion or clause of this Section 9 is determined to be unenforceable or invalid for any
reason, such unenforceability or invalidity shall not affect the enforceability or validity
of the remainder of the Agreement; and (b) if any particular covenant, subsection, provision
or clause of this Section 9 is determined to be unreasonable or unenforceable for any
reason, including, without limitation, the time period, geographic area, and/or scope of
activity covered by any restrictive covenant, such covenant, subsection, provision or clause
shall automatically be deemed reformed such that the contested covenant, subsection,
provision or clause shall have the closest effect permitted by applicable law to the
original form and shall be given effect and enforced as so reformed to whatever extent would
be reasonable and enforceable under applicable law.



10. Remedies. Executive recognizes that a breach or threatened breach by Executive of Section
8 or Section 9 of this Agreement will give rise to irreparable injury to the Company and that money
damages will not be adequate relief for such injury. Notwithstanding Section 14.8 of this
Agreement, Executive agrees that the Company shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief,
including, but not limited to, temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and/or
permanent injunctions, without having to post any bond or other security, to restrain or prohibit
such breach or threatened breach, in addition to any other legal remedies which may be available,
including the recovery of money damages.

or penalties are incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax,
