Company in light of the substantial harm that Company will suffer should Executive breach any of
the provisions of said covenants or agreements and (v) the covenants and agreements of Executive

     8. Remedy for Breach. Executive agrees that the remedies at law of Company for any
actual or threatened breach by Executive of the covenants contained in Section 4 through 7 of this
Agreement would be inadequate and that Company shall be entitled to specific performance of the
covenants in such paragraphs or injunctive relief against activities in violation of such
paragraphs, or both, by temporary or permanent injunction or other appropriate judicial remedy,
writ or order, in addition to any damages and legal expenses (including attorney’s fees) which
Company may be legally entitled to recover. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants
contained in Sections 4 through 7 of this Agreement shall be construed as agreements independent of
any other provision of this or any other agreement between the parties hereto, and that the
existence of any claim or cause of action by Executive against Company, whether predicated upon
this or any other agreement, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Company of said
covenants.

     9. No Prior Agreements. Executive hereby represents and warrants to Company that the
execution of this Agreement by Executive and Executive’s employment by Company and the performance
of Executive’s duties hereunder shall not violate or be a breach of any agreement with a former
employer, client or any other person or entity.

     10. Assignment; Binding Effect. Executive understands that Executive has been
selected for employment by Company on the basis of Executive’s personal qualifications, experience
and skills. Executive agrees, therefore, that Executive cannot assign all or any portion of
Executive’s performance under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding two (2) sentences and the
express provisions of Section 13. below, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit
of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives,
successors and assigns. The rights and obligations of Company hereunder shall be available to a
successor in interest of Company, including a successor established for the purpose of converting
Company to a corporation.

     11. Complete Agreement. This Agreement is not a promise of future employment.
Executive has no oral representations, understandings or agreements with Company or any of its
officers, directors or representatives covering the same subject matter as this Agreement. This
Agreement hereby supersedes any other employment agreements or understandings, written or oral,
between Company and Executive. This written Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive
statement and expression of the agreement between Company and Executive and of all the terms of
this Agreement, and it cannot be varied, contradicted or supplemented by evidence of any prior or
contemporaneous oral or written agreements. This written Agreement may not be later modified,
except by a further writing signed by a duly authorized officer of Company and Executive, and no
term of this Agreement may be waived except by writing signed by the party waiving the benefit of
such term.
