Covenant Not to Solicit If the Executive is receiving payments and benefits under Section 2 above (or subsequently becomes entitled thereto because of a termination described in Section 2(a)(ii)), then, for a period of two (2) years following the Executive's Termination Date, the Executive shall not: (i) solicit, encourage or take any other action which is intended to induce any other employee of the Company to terminate his employment with the Company; or (ii) interfere in any manner with the contractual or employment relationship between the Company and any such employee of the Company.

Covenant Not to Compete or Solicit (a) The Executive recognizes that the services to be performed by him hereunder are special, unique and extraordinary. The parties confirm that it is reasonably necessary for the protection of the Corporation that the Executive agree, and accordingly, the Executive does hereby agree, that he shall not, directly or indirectly, at any time during the "Restricted Period" within the "Restricted Area" (as those terms are defined in Section 9(e) below): (i) except as provided in Subsection (c) below, engage in any line of business in which the Corporation was engaged or had a formal plan to enter during the period of Executive's employment with the Corporation, including but not limited to the business of operating an online insurance marketplace, either on his own behalf or as an officer, director, stockholder, partner, consultant, associate, employee, owner, agent, creditor, independent contractor, or co-venturer of any third party; or (ii) solicit to employ or engage, for or on behalf of himself or any third party, any employee or agent of the Corporation. (b) The Executive hereby agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of himself or any third party, at any time during the Term and during the Restricted Period solicit any customers of the Corporation with respect to products competitive with products then being sold by the Corporation. (c) If any of the restrictions contained in this Section 9 shall be deemed to be unenforceable by reason of the extent, duration or geographical scope thereof, or otherwise, then the court making such determination shall have the right to reduce such extent, duration, geographical scope, or other provisions hereof, and in its reduced form this Section shall then be enforceable in the manner contemplated hereby. (d) This Section 9 shall not be construed to prevent the Executive from owning, directly or indirectly, in the aggregate, an amount not exceeding five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding voting securities of any class of any corporation whose voting capital stock is traded or listed on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market. (e) The term "RESTRICTED PERIOD," as used in this Section 9, shall mean the period of the Executive's actual employment hereunder, plus twelve (12) months after the date the Executive is actually no longer employed by the Corporation. The term "RESTRICTED AREA" as used in this Section 9 shall mean the continental United States.
Covenant Not to Compete (a) The Executive hereby acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the business of Main and of the Bank and accordingly agrees that, during and for the applicable period set forth in Subsection (c), the Executive will not: (i) be engaged, directly or indirectly, either for his own account or as agent, consultant, employee, partner, officer, director, proprietor, investor (except as an investor owning less than 5% of the stock of a publicly owned company) or otherwise of, any person, firm, corporation, or enterprise engaged, in (A) the banking, or financial services industry, or (B) any other activity in which Main or any of its subsidiaries is engaged during the Employment Period, in either case (A) or (B) in any county in which, at any time during the Employment Period or at the date of termination of the Executive's employment, a branch, office or other facility of Main or any of its subsidiaries is located, or in any county contiguous to such a county, including contiguous counties located outside of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the "Non- Competition Area"); and (ii) provide financial or other assistance to any person, firm, corporation, or enterprise engaged in (A) the banking or financial services industry, or (B) any other activity in which Main or any of its subsidiaries is engaged during the Employment Period, in the Non-Competition Area. (b) It is expressly understood and agreed that, although the Executive, Main and the Bank consider the restrictions contained in Subsection (a) reasonable for the purpose of preserving for Main and its subsidiaries their goodwill and other proprietary rights, if a final judicial determination is made by a court having jurisdiction that the time or territory or any other restriction contained in Subsection (a) is an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against the Executive, the provisions of Subsection (a) will not be rendered void but will be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum time and territory and to such other extent as such court may judicially determine or indicate to be reasonable. (c) The provisions of this section will be applicable commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending as follows: (i) at the termination of the payments and benefits provided under Section 6; provided, however, that this clause will not apply in the event Executive's termination of employment occurs following a Change in Control; (ii) one year following the termination of Executive's employment, in the case of a voluntary termination without Good Reason; or (iii) in all other cases, the date of Executive's termination of employment.
