Exclusivity and Best Efforts. During Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive shall # in all respects conform to and comply with the lawful directions and instructions given to Executive by the Company; # devote Executive’s entire business time, energy and skill to Executive’s services under this Agreement; # use Executive’s best efforts to promote and serve the interests of the Company and to perform Executive’s duties and obligations hereunder in a diligent, trustworthy, businesslike, efficient and lawful manner; # comply with all applicable laws and regulations, as well as the policies and practices established by the Company from time to time and made applicable to its employees generally or senior executives; # not engage in any other business, profession or occupation for compensation or otherwise; and # not engage in any activity that, directly or indirectly, impairs or conflicts with the performance of Executive’s obligations and duties to the Company, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent Executive from managing Executive’s personal affairs and passive personal investments and participating in charitable, civic, educational, professional or community affairs, so long as, in the aggregate, any such activities do not unreasonably interfere or conflict with Executive’s duties hereunder or create a potential business or fiduciary conflict with the Company, as reasonably determined by the Company.

Full Time Best Efforts. For so long as you are employed hereunder, you will devote substantially all of your business time and energies to the business and affairs of the Company, and shall at all times faithfully, industriously and to the best of your ability, experience and talent, perform all of your duties and responsibilities hereunder. In furtherance of, and not in limitation of the foregoing, during the term of this Agreement, you further agree that you shall not render commercial or professional services of any nature, including as a founder, advisor, or a member of a board of directors, to any person or organization, whether or not for compensation, if such services would materially interfere with your duties under this Agreement, without the prior approval of the Chief Executive Officer in his sole discretion; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 1(c) will be deemed to prevent or limit your right to # manage your personal investments on your own personal time or # participate in religious, charitable or civic organizations in any capacity on your own personal time. As set forth above, your employment with the Company is “at-will,” and, accordingly, either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time, with or without cause, for any reason or no reason.

Best Efforts/Full-time. Executive will expend Executive’s best efforts on behalf of the Company, and will abide by all policies and decisions made by the Company, as well as all applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations or ordinances. Executive will act in the best interest of the Company at all times. Executive shall devote Executive’s full business time and efforts to the performance of Executive’s assigned duties for the Company, unless Executive notifies the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board of Directors”) in advance of Executive’s intent to engage in other paid work and receives the Board of Directors’ express written consent to do so. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive will be permitted to serve as an outside director on the board of directors for nonprofit or charitable entities, provided such entities are not competitive with the Company and subject to the provisions of Section 8 below.

Best After-Tax Result. In the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received by Executive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise (“Payments”) would # constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and # but for this [subsection (a)], be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, any successor provisions, or any comparable federal, state, local or foreign excise tax (“Excise Tax”), then, subject to the provisions of Section 10, such Payments shall be either # provided in full pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other applicable agreement, or # provided as to such lesser extent which would result in the Payments being $1.00 less than the amount at which any portion of the Payments would be subject to the Excise Tax (“Reduced Amount”), whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state, local and foreign income, employment and other taxes and the Excise Tax (including, without limitation, any interest or penalties on such taxes), results in the receipt by Executive, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of payments and benefits provided for hereunder or otherwise, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax. Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section shall be made by independent tax counsel designated by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive (“Independent Tax Counsel”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required under this Section, Independent Tax Counsel may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of [Sections 280G and 4999]9] of the Code; provided that Independent Tax Counsel shall assume that Executive pays all taxes at the highest marginal rate. The Company and Executive shall furnish to Independent Tax Counsel such information and documents as Independent Tax Counsel may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all costs that Independent Tax Counsel may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section. In the event that [Section 9(a)(ii)(B)] above applies, then based on the information provided to Executive and the Company by Independent Tax Counsel, the cutback described hereunder will apply as to compensation not subject to Section 409A of the Code prior to compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code and will otherwise apply on a reverse chronological basis from payments latest in time. If the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) determines that any Payment is subject to the Excise Tax, then Section 9(b) hereof shall apply, and the enforcement of Section 9(b) shall be the exclusive remedy to the Company.

Pay-Off Letter. The Administrative Agent shall have received satisfactory pay-off letters for all existing Indebtedness required to be repaid and which confirms that all Liens upon any of the property of the Loan Parties constituting Collateral will be terminated concurrently with such payment and all letters of credit issued or guaranteed as part of such Indebtedness shall have been cash collateralized or supported by a Letter of Credit.

Any Loan Party or any Material Subsidiary of a Loan Party admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they mature;

Failure to Pay. [[Loan Agreement:Organization]] shall fail to pay # when due any principal or interest payment on the due date hereunder or # any other payment required under the terms of this Note on the date due, and (in either case) such payment shall not have been made within twenty (20) days of [[Loan Agreement:Organization]]’s receipt of Holder’s written notice to [[Loan Agreement:Organization]] of such failure to pay;

In return or the Loan, Borrower promises to pay to the order of Lender the amount of $2,497,199, interest on the unpaid principal balance, and all other amounts required by this Note.

Failure to Pay. If any Secured Party fails to pay any amount when due by it to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest from the due date until paid at the rate determined by the Administrative Agent as customary in the banking industry for interbank compensation. In no event shall Borrower be entitled to receive credit for any interest paid by a Secured Party to the Administrative Agent, nor shall any Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on any amounts held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to [Section 2.21].

Promise to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of each Lender, the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions advanced to Borrower by such Lender and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, together with any fees as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.
