The Executive acknowledges that the special relationship of trust and confidence between him or her, the Bank, and its clients and customers creates a high risk and opportunity for the Executive to misappropriate the relationship and goodwill existing between the Bank and its clients and customers. The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that it is fair and reasonable for the Bank to take steps to protect itself from the risk of such misappropriation. The Executive further acknowledges that, at the outset of his or her employment with the Bank and throughout his or her employment with the Bank, the Executive will be provided with access to and informed of Proprietary Information, which will enable him or her to benefit from the Bank\u2019s goodwill and know-how.\n19. The Executive acknowledges that it would be inevitable in the performance of his or her duties as a director, officer, employee, investor, agent or consultant of any person, association, entity, or company which competes with the Bank, or which intends to or may compete with the Bank, to disclose and/or use Proprietary Information, as well as to misappropriate the Bank\u2019s goodwill and know-how, to or for the benefit of such other person, association, entity, or company. The Executive also acknowledges that, in exchange for the execution of the non-solicitation restriction set forth in these NONINTERFERENCE provisions, he or she has received substantial, valuable consideration, including: (i) confidential trade secret and proprietary information relating to the identity and special needs of the Bank\u2019s current and prospective customers, the Bank\u2019s current and prospective services, the Bank\u2019s business projections and market studies, the Bank\u2019s business plans and strategies, the Bank\u2019s studies and information concerning special services unique to the Bank; (ii) employment; and (iii) compensation and benefits as described in this Agreement. The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that this consideration constitutes fair and adequate consideration for the execution of the non-solicitation restriction set forth herein.\n20. In consideration for the above-recited valuable consideration, as well as to protect the vital interests described in these NONINTERFERENCE provisions, the Executive understands and agrees that during the continuation of this Agreement and for a period of one year following the termination of this Agreement by either party, for any reason (other than for termination of the Executive for circumstances described in Paragraph 25(e), below), the Executive will not be or become engaged in any way (directly or indirectly), as an individual proprietor, beneficiary, trustee, owner, partner, stockholder, officer, director, executive, investor, lender, sales representative, or in any other capacity, whatsoever, in any activity or endeavor which competes or conflicts with the business of the Bank or any of its subsidiaries, as such business has been conducted during the years of the Executive\u2019s employment with the Bank, within twenty (20) miles of the primary office of Executive upon the termination of Executive\u2019s employment with the Bank. It is the parties\u2019 desire that these restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent allowed by law.\n21. The Executive agrees that the restrictions set forth in Paragraph 20 above are ancillary to an otherwise enforceable agreement, are supported by independent valuable consideration, and that the limitations as to time, geographical area, and scope of activity to be restrained by Paragraph 20 are reasonable and acceptable, and do not impose any greater restraint than is reasonably necessary to protect the goodwill and other business interests of the Bank. The Executive further agrees that such restrictions do not create undue hardship for him or her or for the public. The NONINTERFERENCE provisions in this Section D are not intended to be construed as a general restraint from engaging in a lawful profession or a general covenant against competition. Nothing herein will prohibit the Executive\u2019s (i) beneficial ownership of less than 5% of the publicly traded capital stock of a corporation listed on a national securities exchange so long as this is not a controlling interest, or (ii) ownership of mutual fund investments. The Executive may not avoid the purpose and intent of this paragraph by engaging in conduct within the geographically limited area from a remote location through means such as telecommunications, written correspondence, computer generated or assisted communications, or other similar methods. The Executive agrees that if, at some later date, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the non-solicitation agreement set forth in this Section D does not meet the criteria set forth by applicable law, then such agreement may be reformed by the court and enforced to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law. The Executive understands that his or her obligations under this Section D shall not be assignable by him or her.\n22. The Executive acknowledges that the covenants set forth in these NONINTERFERENCE provisions are material conditions to the Bank\u2019s willingness to execute and deliver this Agreement and to provide Executive the compensation and benefits and other consideration provided hereunder. The parties agree that the existence of any claim or cause of action of Executive against the Bank, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, will not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Bank of such covenants. It is specifically acknowledged that the periods following the termination of employment stated in Paragraphs 15 and 20, during which the agreements and covenants of Executive made in such Paragraphs are effective, are to be computed by excluding from such computation any time during which Executive is in violation of any provision of Paragraph 15 or 20. The covenants contained in these NONINTERFERENCE provisions will not be affected by any breach of any other provision hereof by any party hereto. In addition, Executive\u2019s obligations under these NONINTERFERENCE provisions shall survive the termination of this Agreement and Executive\u2019s employment with the Bank. Executive\u2019s obligations under these NONINTERFERENCE provisions are in addition to, and not in limitation or preemption of, all other obligations of confidentiality which he or she may have to Bank under general legal or equitable principles, or other the Bank policies.", "hash": "724864b4e11082ba5ea23083c55d7fca", "id": 7}, {"samples": [{"hash": "2aJ8ktcBdzH", "uri": "/contracts/2aJ8ktcBdzH#noninterference", "label": "Employment Agreement (Geron Corp)", "score": 31.1930179596, "published": true}, {"hash": "jyL45gjcbyZ", "uri": "/contracts/jyL45gjcbyZ#noninterference", "label": "Employment Agreement (Geron Corp)", "score": 30.1772766113, "published": true}, {"hash": "cVjODC1R9WY", "uri": "/contracts/cVjODC1R9WY#noninterference", "label": "Employment Agreement (Geron Corp)", "score": 30.1772766113, "published": true}], "snippet_links": [{"key": "employed-by-the-company", "type": "definition", "offset": [6, 29]}, {"key": "following-the", "type": "definition", "offset": [64, 77]}, {"key": "terminates-employment", "type": "definition", "offset": [102, 123]}, {"key": "services-to-the-company", "type": "clause", "offset": [154, 177]}, {"key": "the-business-of-the-company", "type": "clause", "offset": [218, 245]}, {"key": "to-solicit", "type": "definition", "offset": [274, 284]}, {"key": "employee-of-the-company", "type": "definition", "offset": [289, 312]}, {"key": "in-order-to", "type": "clause", "offset": [353, 364]}, {"key": "an-employee", "type": "definition", "offset": [372, 383]}, {"key": "contractor-to", "type": "clause", "offset": [411, 424]}, {"key": "competitor-of-the-company", "type": "definition", "offset": [436, 461]}, {"key": "article-vii", "type": "definition", "offset": [493, 504]}, {"key": "termination-of-executive", "type": "clause", "offset": [519, 543]}, {"key": "termination-of-this-agreement", "type": "clause", "offset": [582, 611]}], "size": 51, "snippet": "While employed by the Company, and for one (1) year immediately following the date on which Executive terminates employment or otherwise ceases providing services to the Company, Executive agrees not to interfere with the business of the Company by soliciting or attempting to solicit any employee of the Company to terminate such employee\u2019s employment in order to become an employee, consultant or independent contractor to or for any competitor of the Company.
