Competitive Activities (a) The Executive agrees and acknowledges that by virtue of his employment hereunder, he will maintain an intimate knowledge of the activities and affairs of the Employer, including trade secrets, plans, business plans, strategies, projections, market studies, customer information, employee records and other internal proprietary and confidential information and matters (collectively “Confidential Information”). As a result, and also because of the special, unique and extraordinary services that the Executive is capable of performing for the Employer or one of its competitors, the Executive recognizes that the services to be rendered by him hereunder are of a character giving them a peculiar value, the loss of which cannot be adequately or reasonably compensated for by damages. (b) Except for the purpose of carrying out his duties hereunder, the Executive will not remove or retain, or make copies or reproductions of, any figures, documents, records, discs, computer records, calculations, letters, papers, or recorded or documented information of any type or description relating to the business of the Employer. The Executive agrees that he will not divulge to others any information (whether or not documented or recorded) or data acquired by him while in the Employer’s employ relating to methods, processes or other trade secrets or other Confidential Information. (c) The Executive agrees that the Employer is, and shall be, the sole and exclusive owner of all improvements, ideas and suggestions, whether or not subject to patent or trademark protection, and all copyrightable materials which are conceived by the Executive during his employment, which relate to the business of the Employer, which are confidential, or which are not readily ascertainable from persons or other sources outside the Employer. (d) Unless the Executive’s employment is terminated in connection with or following a Change in Control, then for a period of one year after the termination of employment, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit, induce, encourage or attempt to influence any client, customer or employee of the Employer to cease to do business with, or to terminate any employee’s employment with, the Employer. The Executive shall not be subject to any of the limitations set forth in the preceding sentence if the Executive’s employment is terminated in connection with or following a Change in Control. (e) The Executive agrees that during the term of his employment hereunder, except with the express consent of the Employer, he will not, directly or indirectly, engage or participate in, become a director of, or render advisory or other services for, or in connection with, or become interested in, or make any financial investment in any firm, corporation, business entity or business enterprise competitive with or to any business of the Employer; provided, however, that the Executive shall not thereby be precluded or prohibited from owning passive investments, including investments in the securities of other financial institutions, so long as such ownership does not require him to devote substantial time to management or control of the business or activities in which he has invested. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, during the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall have no employment contract or other written or oral agreement concerning employment as an officer of a savings bank or any other financial institution or financial institution holding company nor with any other entity or person other than the Bank or the Corporation. The provisions of this Section 9(e) shall not be applicable if the Executive’s employment is terminated in connection with or following a Change in Control. (f) The Employer shall be entitled to immediate injunctive or other equitable relief to restrain the Executive from failing to comply with any obligation under this Section 9 or from rendering his services to persons or entities than the Employer, in addition to any other remedies to which the Employer may be entitled under law. The right to such injunctive or other equitable relief shall survive the termination by the Employer of the Executive’s employment. (g) The Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 9 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Employer and that any violation thereof would result in irreparable injuries to the Employer. The Executive acknowledges that, if the Executive violates any of these restrictions, the Employer is entitled to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief as well as damages, and an equitable accounting of any earnings, profits and other benefits arising from such violation, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which the Employer may be entitled. The Executive further acknowledges that the provisions of Sections 9(a), (b), (c), (f) and (g) shall remain in full force and effect beyond the termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, including but not limited to termination in connection with or following a Change in Control.
