COVENANTS OF DIRECTOR

4.1. No Conflict of Interest. During the Term of this Agreement, the Director shall not be employed by, own, manage, control or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of any business entity that is competitive with the Company and its subsidiaries or otherwise undertake any obligation inconsistent with the terms hereof, provided that Director may continue the Director’s current affiliation or other current relationships with the entity or entities described on Exhibit C (all of which entities are referred to collectively as “Current Affiliations”). This Agreement is subject to the current terms and agreements governing the Director’s relationship with Current Affiliations, and nothing in this Agreement is intended to be or will be construed to inhibit or limit any of the Director’s obligations to Current Affiliations. The Director represents that nothing in this Agreement conflicts with the Director’s obligations to Current Affiliations. A business entity shall be deemed to be “competitive with the Company and its subsidiaries” for purpose of this Section 4.1 only if and to the extent it engages in the business substantially similar to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole. If the Director undertakes any duty, investment or other obligation that may present a conflict of interest prohibited under this Section 4.1, the Director shall inform the Board in advance. If the Board decides such proposed new obligation would present an actual conflict of interest prohibited hereunder and the Director still undertakes the new obligation, the Board shall have the right to remove the Director from the Board.

4.2. Noninterference with Business. During the Term of this Agreement, and for a period of one (1) year after the Expiration Date, the Director agrees not to interfere with the business of the Company and its subsidiaries in any manner. By way of example and not of limitation, the Director agrees not to solicit or induce any employee, independent contractor, customer, supplier or business partner of the Company to terminate or breach his/her employment, contractual or other relationship with the Company and its subsidiaries.

4.3. No ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇; Ethics. The Director acknowledges and agrees that the Director may have access to “material non-public information” for purposes of the federal securities laws (“Insider Information”) and that the Director will abide by all securities laws relating to the handling of and acting upon such Insider Information. The Director further agrees to abide by and follow all such procedures set forth in the Company’s ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ policy, code of ethics and any similar policy, code or document governing the conduct of directors of the Company as in existence now or at any time during the term of this Agreement.

4.4. Mutual Non-Disparagement. Director and the Company mutually agree to forbear from making, causing to be made, publishing, ratifying or endorsing any and all disparaging, defamatory or derogatory remarks, statements or comments to any third party with respect to either of them. Further, the Parties hereto agree to forbear from making any public or non-confidential statement with respect to any claim or complaint against either Party without the mutual consent of each of them, to be given in advance of any such statement.

4.5. [Independence. The Director acknowledges that his/her appointment hereunder is contingent upon the Board’s determination that he/she is “independent” with respect to the Company, in accordance with the listing requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market, and that his/her appointment may be terminated by the Company in the event that the Director does not maintain such independence standard.]²

4.6. Enforcement. In signing this Agreement, the Director gives the Company assurance that the Director has carefully read and considered all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the restraints imposed on the Director under this Section 4, that the Director has not relied on any agreements or representations, express or implied, that are not set forth expressly in this Agreement, and that the Director has entered into this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily. The Director agrees that these restraints are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the Company and its subsidiaries, and that each and every one of the restraints is reasonable in respect to subject matter, length of time and geographic area. The Director further agrees that, were the Director to breach any of the covenants contained in this Section 4, the damage to the Company and its subsidiaries would be irreparable. The Director therefore agrees that the Company, in addition and not in the alternative to any other remedies available to it, will be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against any breach or threatened breach by the Director of any such covenants, without having to post bond. In the event that any provision of this Section 4 is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its being extended over too great a time, too large a geographic area or too great a range of activities, that provision will be deemed to be modified to permit its enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by law. It is also agreed that each of the Company’s subsidiaries will have the right to enforce all of the Director’s obligations to that subsidiary under this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to this Section 4. No claimed breach of this Agreement or other violation of law attributed to the Company, or change in the nature or scope of the Director’s employment or other relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, will operate to excuse the Director from the performance of the Director’s obligations under this Section 4.
