hereof, attached hereto as Exhibit A, and agrees that he or she will comply with such Code of Conduct and other Fiserv corporate policies regarding activities in the workplace, as they may be amended from time to time, in all material respects.

 8. 

	 	 (a)
	 For purposes of this Section 8, the following definitions apply: 


  

	 	 (i)
	 “Customer” means any person, association or entity: (1) for which Employee has directly performed services, (2) for which
Employee has supervised others in performing services, or (3) about which Employee has special knowledge as a result of his employment with the Company, during all or any part of the twenty-four (24) month period ending on the date of the
termination of his employment with the Company. 


  

	 	 (ii)
	 “Competing Product or Service” means any product or service which is sold in competition with, or is being developed and which will
compete with, a product or service developed, manufactured, or sold by the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “Competing Products or Services” are limited to products and/or services for which Employee participated in the
development, planning, testing, sale, marketing or evaluation of on behalf of the Company in or during any part of the last twenty-four (24) months of his employment with the Company, or for which Employee supervised one or more Company
employees, units, divisions or departments in doing so. 


  

	 	 (iii)
	 “Special Knowledge” means material, non-public information about a person, association or entity that Employee learned as a result of his
employment with the Company and/or the Company’s client development or marketing efforts during all or any part of the last twenty-four (24) months of his employment with the Company. 


 (b)    Employee agrees that the Company’s customer contacts and relations are established and maintained at
great expense. Employee further agrees that, as an employee of the Company, he or she will have unique and extensive exposure to and contact with the Company’s customers and employees, and that he or she will have had the opportunity to
establish unique relationships that would enable him to compete unfairly against the Company. Moreover, Employee acknowledges that he or she will have had unique and extensive knowledge of the Company’s trade secret and confidential
information, and that such information, if used by him or others, would allow him or others to compete unfairly against the Company. Therefore, in consideration of the compensation and benefits paid to him pursuant to this Agreement, Employee agrees
that, for a period of twelve months after the date of the termination of his employment, Employee will not, either on his own behalf of on behalf of any other person, association or entity: 
 (i)        Contact any Customer for the purpose of soliciting or inducing such client to
purchase a Competing Product or Service; 
  

 7 








 (ii)        Solicit an employee of the Company
to terminate his employment with the Company; 
 (iii)        Become financially
interested in, be employed by or have any connection with, directly or indirectly, either individually or as owner, partner, agent, employee, consultant, creditor or otherwise, except for the account of or on behalf of the Company, or its
affiliates, in any business or activity listed on Exhibit C, or any affiliate, successor or assign of such business or activity or any other business enterprise that engages in substantial competition with the Company or any of its subsidiaries in
the business of providing management solutions to the financial industry; provided, however, that Employee, with prior permission from the Company, such permission not to be unreasonably withheld, may seek employment in a business or activity listed
in Exhibit C so long as the employment is not in an area that provides a Competing Product or Services and provided further that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Employee from owning publicly traded stock or other securities of a competitor
amounting to less than one percent of such outstanding class of securities of such competitor; or 
 (iv)        Become an owner, partner, director or officer of a company that develops, sells or markets a Competing Product or Service. 
 (c)     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Section 8: 
 (i)        Shall not bar Employee from all employment. Employee warrants and agrees that there
are ample employment opportunities that he or she could fill following his employment with the Company, in his field of experience, without violating this Agreement; 
 (ii)        Shall not bar Employee from performing clerical, menial or manual labor; 
 (iii)        Shall not prohibit Employee from investing as a passive investor in the capital
stock or other securities of a publicly traded corporation listed on a national security exchange. 
 9.    Employee acknowledges and agrees that compliance with this Agreement is necessary to protect the Company, and that a breach of this Agreement will result in irreparable and continuing damage to the Company for
which there will be no adequate remedy at law. Employee hereby agrees that in the event of any such breach of this Agreement, the Company, and its successors and assigns, shall be entitled to injunctive relief and to such other and further relief as
is proper under the circumstances. Employee further agrees that, in the event of his intentional breach of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to recover the value of any amounts previously paid or payable to Employee pursuant to
Section 5(b) hereof and of any Stock Program. Employee understands and agrees that the losses incurred by the Company as a result of such breach of this Agreement would be difficult or impossible to calculate, as they are based on, among other
things, the value of the knowledge and information gained by the Employee at the expense of the Company, but that the actual value exceeds the amounts paid or 

  

 8 








 
payable to Employee pursuant to Section 5(b) and any Stock Program. Accordingly, the amount paid or payable to Employee pursuant to Section 5(b)
and any Stock Program herein represents the Employee’s agreement to pay and the Company’s agreement to accept as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, such amount for any such Employee breach. Employee and the Company hereby agree to
submit themselves to the jurisdiction of any Court of competent jurisdiction in any disputes that arise under this Agreement. 
 10. Employee agrees that the terms of this Agreement shall survive the termination of his employment with the Company. 
 11. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws in the State of Arizona. 
 12.
The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted
jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement. 
 13. THE EMPLOYEE HAS READ THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREES THAT THE CONSIDERATION PROVIDED BY THE COMPANY IS FAIR AND REASONABLE AND FURTHER AGREES THAT GIVEN THE IMPORTANCE TO THE COMPANY OF ITS
CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION, THE POST-EMPLOYMENT RESTRICTIONS ON THE EMPLOYEE’S ACTIVITIES ARE LIKEWISE FAIR AND REASONABLE. 
 14. If any provision of this Agreement shall be declared illegal or unenforceable by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such provision in
circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each remaining provision of this Agreement shall be valid and be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 15. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall thereby create any estoppel
against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such
waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived. 
 16. No term or provision or the duration of this Agreement shall be altered, varied or contradicted except by a writing to that effect, executed by authorized officers of the Company and Fiserv and by Employee, and in compliance with
Internal Revenue Code Section 409A.
