Litigation. You agree that during the Employment Term and for a one-year period thereafter and, if longer, during the pendency of any litigation or other proceeding, # you shall not communicate with anyone (other than your attorneys and tax advisors and except to the extent required by law or necessary in the performance of your duties hereunder) with respect to the facts or subject matter of any pending or potential litigation, or regulatory or administrative proceeding involving [[Organization A:Organization]] or any of its affiliates or predecessors, other than any litigation or other proceeding in which you are a party-in-opposition, without giving prior notice to [[Organization A:Organization]] or [[Organization A:Organization]]’s counsel, and # in the event that any other party attempts to obtain information or documents from you with respect to matters possibly related to such litigation or other proceeding, you shall promptly so notify [[Organization A:Organization]]’s counsel unless you are prohibited from doing so under applicable law. You agree to cooperate, in a reasonable and appropriate manner, with [[Organization A:Organization]] and its attorneys, both during and after the termination of your employment or services, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding arising out of or relating to matters in which you were involved prior to the termination of your employment or services to the extent [[Organization A:Organization]] pays all reasonable expenses you incur in connection with such cooperation (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of your counsel) and to the extent such cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with your personal or professional schedule.

You agree that during the Term and for twelve (12) months thereafter or, if later, during the pendency of any litigation or other proceeding, # you shall not communicate with anyone (other than your own attorneys and tax advisors), except to the extent necessary in the performance of your duties under this Agreement, with respect to the facts or subject matter of any pending or potential litigation, or regulatory or administrative proceeding involving [[Organization A:Organization]], or any of [[Organization A:Organization]]’s affiliated companies, other than any litigation or other proceeding in which you are a party-in-opposition, without giving prior notice to [[Organization A:Organization]] or its counsel; and # in the event that any other party attempts to obtain information or documents from you with respect to such matters, either through formal legal process such as a subpoena or by informal means such as interviews, you shall promptly notify [[Organization A:Organization]]’s counsel before providing any information or documents.
