The Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, within the marketing area of the Employer and its Subsidiaries (defined as all areas within 25 miles of any office or other facility of the Employer where the Employer has established an active and material marketing presence) enter into or engage generally in direct or indirect competition with the Employer in the business of banking or any banking or trust related business, either directly or indirectly as an individual on his own or as a partner or joint ventur, or as a director, officer, shareholder (except as an incidental shareholder), employee or agent for any person, for a period equal to the greater of (i) one year or (ii) the duration of any payments to the Executive pursuant to Section 11after the date of termination of his employment, except where the termination occurs in conjunction with a Change of Control or Good Reason in which case this paragraph shall not apply. The existence of any material claim or cause of action of the Executive against the Employer, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Employer of this covenant. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that enforcement of this covenant not to compete will not prevent him from earning a livelihood and that any breach of the restrictions set forth in this paragraph will result in irreparable injury to the Employer for which it shall have no adequate remedy at law, and that, therefore, the Employer shall be entitled to injunctive relief in order to enforce the provisions hereof. In the event that this paragraph shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable in part by reason of it being too great a period of time or covering too great a geographical area, it shall be in full force and effect as to that period of time or geographical area determined to be reasonable by the court. (b) RETURN OF MATERIALS. Upon termination of employment with the Employer for any reason, the Executive shall immediately deliver to the Employer all correspondence, manuals, letters, notes, notebooks, reports and any other documents and tangible items containing or constituting confidential information about the Employer maintained at his office and shall promptly deliver all said materials held by him at other locations.

(d) NONSOLICITATION OF CUSTOMERS. The Executive shall not entice or solicit, directly or indirectly, any client or customer of the Employer or any Subsidiary for a period equal to the greater of (i) one year or (ii) the duration of any payments to the Executive pursuant to Section 11 following the Executive's termination of employment with the Employer for any reason, including a termination of employment in conjunction with a Change of Control. (e) REMEDY. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that any breach of the restrictions set forth in Sections 7 and 8 will result in irreparable injury to the Employer for which it shall have no meaningful remedy in law and the Employer shall be entitled to injunctive relief in order to enforce provisions hereof. Upon obtaining such injunction, the Employer shall be entitled to pursue reimbursement from the Executive and/or the Executive's employer of costs incurred in securing a qualified replacement for any employee enticed away from the Employer by the Executive.
