Non-Competition. Without the consent in writing of the Board, upon the Executive's Date of Termination for any reason, Executive will not, for a period of six (6) consecutive calendar months thereafter, acting alone or in conjunction with others, directly or indirectly (i) engage (either as owner, investor, partner, stockholder, employer, employee, consultant, advisor or director (other than as below)) in any business in the continental United States which is a material business conducted by the Company or any of its subsidiaries on the date of the consummation of a Change of Control in which he has been directly engaged, or has supervised as an executive, on the date of the consummation of the Change of Control and which is directly in competition with a material business conducted by the Company or any of its subsidiaries on the date of the consummation of the Change of Control; (ii) induce any customers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries with whom Executive has had contacts or relationships, directly or indirectly, during and within the scope of his employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, to curtail or cancel their business with such companies or any of them; or (iii) induce, or attempt to influence, any employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate employment. The provisions of subparagraphs (i), (ii), and (iii) above are separate and distinct commitments independent of each of the other subparagraphs. It is agreed that the ownership of not more than one percent of the equity securities of any company having securities listed on an exchange or regularly traded in the over-the-counter market shall not, of itself, be deemed inconsistent with clause (i) of this paragraph (a), neither shall service (whether as an employee, officer, director or consultant) with respect to CUNO Incorporated, nor shall service as a member of a board of directors on which Executive is serving on the Date of Termination (including any successor board thereto) be deemed, of itself, to be inconsistent with clause (i) of this paragraph (a). The Executive and the Company agree that the value to be assigned to the obligations of the Executive under this paragraph (a) is an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of Executive's Annual Base Salary and Recent Annual Bonus. Violation of Section 11(a) or (b) shall not require Executive to return any payment or benefit previously distributed to Executive.
Non-Competition a. Executive acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the businesses of the Company and its affiliates and accordingly agrees as follows:
Non-Competition. During the Period of Employment hereunder, and in the event the Employee’s employment is terminated pursuant to subparagraphs 10.2 or 10.3 hereof, then for the later of (a) one year thereafter or (b) the period during which compensation or benefits are being provided pursuant to this Agreement after its termination, the Employee will not directly for himself or herself or any third party, become engaged in any business or activity which is directly in competition with any services or financial products sold by, or any business or activity engaged in by, the Company or the Bank, including, without limitation, any business or activity engaged in by any federally or state chartered bank, savings bank, savings and loan association, trust company and/or credit union, and/or any services or financial products sold by such entities, including, without limitation, the taking and accepting of deposits, the provision of trust services, the making of loans and/or the extension of credit, brokering loans and/or leases and the provision of insurance and investment services, within a 25 mile radius of any office or facility of the Company, the Bank or any of their Affiliates. This provision shall not restrict the Employee from owning or investing in publicly traded securities of financial institutions, so long as his or her aggregate holdings in any financial institution do not exceed ten percent (10%) of the outstanding capital stock of such institution. During the Period of Employment hereunder, and for a period of two years thereafter no matter the reason of termination, the Employee will not solicit any person who was a customer of the Company or the Bank during the period of the Employee’s employment hereunder, or solicit potential customers who are or were identified through leads developed during the course of employment with the Company or the Bank, or otherwise divert or attempt to divert any existing business of the Company or the Bank within any area of 100 miles of any office or facility of the Company, the Bank or any of their Affiliates. The Employee will not, either during the Period of Employment hereunder or for a period of two years thereafter directly for himself or any third party, solicit, induce, recruit or cause another person in the employment of the Bank, the Company or any of their Affiliates to terminate his or her employment for the purposes of joining, associating, or becoming employed with any business or activity which is in competition wi...
Non-Competition. (a) Upon any termination of Executive's employment hereunder as a result of which the Association is paying Executive benefits under Section 4 of this Agreement, Executive agrees not to compete with the Bank and/or the Company for a period of one (1) year following such termination in any city, town or county in which the Bank and/or the Company has an office or has filed an application for regulatory approval to establish an office, determined as of the effective date of such termination, except as agreed to pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board. Executive agrees that during such period and within said cities, towns and counties, Executive shall not work for or advise, consult or otherwise serve with, directly or indirectly, any entity whose business materially competes with the depository, lending or other business activities of the Bank and/or the Company. The parties hereto, recognizing that irreparable injury will result to the Bank and/or the Company, its business and property in the event of Executive's breach of this Subsection 9(a) agree that in the event of any such breach by Executive, the Bank and/or the Company will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies and damages available, to an injunction to restrain the violation hereof by Executive, Executive's partners, agents, servants, employers, employees and all persons acting for or with Executive. Executive represents and admits that Executive's experience and capabilities are such that Executive can obtain employment in a business engaged in other lines and/or of a different nature than the Bank and/or the Company, and that the enforcement of a remedy by way of injunction will not prevent Executive from earning a livelihood. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the Bank and/or the Company from pursuing any other remedies available to the Bank and/or the Company for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive. This paragraph (a) shall not apply if an termination of Executive's employment occurs in connection with a change in control of the Bank, within the meaning of the Home Owners' Loan Act and the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision (or its predecessor agency) thereunder.
Non-Competition. The Executive recognizes that the Company’s willingness to enter into this Agreement is based in material part on the Executive’s agreement to the provisions of this paragraph 6 and that the Executive’s breach of the provisions of this paragraph 6 could materially damage the Company. Subject to the further provisions of this Agreement and in consideration of the Company’s agreement to provide the Executive Confidential Information (as defined in Section 7) to which the Executive did not have access prior to the execution of this Agreement, and the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, during the term of his employment hereunder, and, for the period extending to the first anniversary of his termination of employment for any reason other than termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause or termination of the Executive’s employment by the Executive for Good Reason (the “No-Compete Period”), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services to, or in any manner engage in any pumping unit or gear manufacturing business (the “Subject Businesses”) with (any such action to be referred to as an “Association” with) any person, corporation, partnership, trust or other business organization (any such person or entity to be referred to as a “Person”) if such business is directly competitive with the Subject Businesses of the Company; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not restrict the Executive from having an Association with a Person that is engaged in the Subject Businesses so long as the Executive is not personally involved in a material respect in the Subject Businesses of such Person, it being understood that an indirect supervisory role of a Subject Business and other businesses of such Person shall not constitute involvement in a material respect. If any court having jurisdiction determines that the provisions of this Section 6 are not enforceable to the fullest extent, because of the provisions as to the time period, the geographical area or the scope of activity covered, the Parties agree that such court may narrow any such provision as the court deems necessary to enforceability, and this Section 6 shall be enforced as so narrowed. The Executive acknowledges that monetary damages would not constitute an adequate remedy for the Company in the event of a breach of this Section 6, and he therefore agrees that the Company shall be entitled to injunctive or other eq...
Non-Competition. During the Employment Period, and following termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, Holdco and any of their affiliates, during the “Restriction Period” (as hereinafter defined), the Executive shall not directly or indirectly participate in or permit his name directly or indirectly to be used by or become associated with (including as an advisor, representative, agent, promoter, independent contractor, provider of personal services or otherwise) any person, corporation, partnership, firm, association or other enterprise or entity (a “person”) that is, or intends to be, engaged in any business which is in competition with any business of the Company, Holdco or any of their respective subsidiaries or controlled affiliates in any geographic area in which the Company, Holdco or any of their respective subsidiaries or controlled affiliates operate, compete or are engaged in such business or at such time intend so to operate, compete or become engaged in such business (a “Competitor”); provided, however, that the foregoing will not prohibit the Executive from participating in or becoming associated with a person if (i) less than 10% of the consolidated gross revenues of such person, together with its affiliates, derive from activities or businesses that are in competition with any business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or controlled affiliates (a “Competitive Business”) and (ii) the Executive does not, directly or indirectly, participate in, become associated with, or otherwise have responsibilities that relate to the conduct or operations of, any Competitive Business that is conducted by such person or a division, group, or subsidiary or affiliate of such person. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “participate” includes any direct or indirect interest, whether as an officer, director, employee, partner, sole proprietor, trustee, beneficiary, agent, representative, independent contractor, consultant, advisor, provider of personal services, creditor, or owner (other than by ownership of less than five percent of the stock of a publicly-held corporation whose stock is traded on a national securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market).
Non-Competition. In consideration of the compensation provided to the Executive by the Company hereunder, the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, the Executive agree that during the Term and for a period of one year following the termination of the Employment for whatever reason, the Executive shall not engage in Competition (as defined below) with the Group. For purposes of this Agreement, “Competition” by the Executive shall mean the Executive’s engaging in, or otherwise directly or indirectly being employed by or acting as a consultant or lender to, or being a director, officer, employee, principal, agent, stockholder, member, owner or partner of, or permitting the Executive’s name to be used in connection with the activities of, any other business or organization which competes, directly or indirectly, with the Group in the Business; provided, however, it shall not be a violation of this Section 11(a) for the Executive to become the registered or beneficial owner of up to five percent (5%) of any class of the capital stock of a publicly traded corporation in Competition with the Group, provided that the Executive does not otherwise participate in the business of such corporation.
Non-Competition. The Executive agrees that, during his or her employment with the Company, he or she shall not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether full-time or part-time) that would create a conflict of interest with the Company.
Non-Competition. (a) Executive agrees that during the Term of Employment and during the one (1) year period immediately following the Termination Date (the “Non-Competitive Period”), Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, as owner, partner, joint venturer, stockholder, employee, broker, agent, principal, trustee, corporate officer, director, licensor, or in any capacity whatsoever, engage in, become financially interested in, be employed by, render any consultation or business advice with respect to, accept any competitive business on behalf of, or have any connection with any business which is competitive with products or services of the Company or any subsidiaries and affiliates, in any geographic area in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates are then conducting or proposing to conduct business, including, without limitation, the United States of America and its possessions, Canada and Europe; provided, however, that Executive may own any securities of any corporation which is engaged in such business and is publicly owned and traded but in an amount not to exceed at any one time one percent (1%) of any class of stock or securities of such corporation. In addition, Executive shall not, during the Non-Competitive Period, directly or indirectly, request or cause any suppliers or customers with whom the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates has a business relationship to cancel or terminate any such business relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or otherwise compromise the Company’s good will or solicit, hire, interfere with or entice from the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates any employee (or former employee who has been separated from service for less than 12 months) of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.
Non-Competition. During the Employment Term and for the one-year period following the termination of the Executive's employment for any reason (the "Restricted Period"), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, provide employment (including self-employment), directorship, consultative or other services to any business, individual, partner, firm, corporation, or other entity that competes with any business conducted by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates on the date of the Executive's termination of employment or within one year of the Executive's termination of employment in the geographic locations where the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates engage or propose to engage in such business (the "Business"). Nothing herein shall prevent the Executive from having a passive ownership interest of not more than 2% of the outstanding securities of any entity engaged in the Business whose securities are traded on a national securities exchange.
