(f)                                    If Employee breaches any of the Restrictive Covenants, the Company shall have the following rights and remedies, each of which rights and remedies shall be independent of the others and severally enforceable, and each of which is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company at law or in equity: (i) the right and remedy to have the Restrictive Covenants specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction (without posting a bond), it being agreed that any breach or threatened breach of the Restrictive Covenants would cause irreparable injury to the Company and its Affiliates and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to the Company, and (ii) the right and remedy to require Employee to account for and pay over to the Company and its Affiliates any profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits derived or received by Employee as the result of any transactions constituting a breach of the Restrictive Covenants.  In the event of any breach or violation by Employee of any of the Restrictive Covenants, the time period of such covenant with respect to such Person shall be tolled until such breach or violation is resolved.

24.                          Section 409A.    It is intended that payments and benefits under this Agreement either be excluded from or comply with the requirements of Section 409A and the guidance issued thereunder and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted consistent with such intent.  In the event that any provision of this Agreement is subject to but fails to comply with Section 409A, the Company may revise the terms of the provision to correct such noncompliance to the extent permitted under any guidance, procedure or other method promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service now or in the future or otherwise available that provides for such correction as a means to avoid or mitigate any taxes, interest or penalties that would otherwise be incurred by the Employee on account of such noncompliance.  Provided, however, that in no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty imposed upon or other detriment suffered by the Employee under Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Section 409A.  Solely for purposes of determining the time and form of payments due the Employee under this Agreement or otherwise in connection with the Employee’s termination of employment with the Company, the Employee shall not be deemed to have incurred a termination of employment unless and until the Employee shall incur a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.  The parties agree, as permitted in accordance with the final regulations thereunder, a “separation from service” shall occur when the Employee and the Company reasonably anticipate that the Employee’s level of bona fide services for the Company (whether as an employee or an independent contractor) will permanently decrease to no more than forty (40) percent of the average level of bona fide services performed by the Employee for the Company over the immediately preceding thirty six (36) months.  The determination of whether and when a separation from service has occurred shall be made in accordance with this subparagraph and in a manner consistent with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h).  All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A to the extent that such reimbursements or in-kind benefits are subject to Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirements that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during the Employee’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement (and the in-kind benefits to be provided) during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement (and

the in-kind benefits to be provided) in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred and (iv) the right to reimbursement (or in-kind benefits) is not subject to set off or liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.  For purposes of Section 409A, the Employee’s right to any installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.  Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days ( e.g. , “payment shall be made within ninety (90) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.

25.                          Third-Party Beneficiaries .  Nothing herein, expressed or implied, shall create or establish any third party beneficiary hereto nor confer upon any Person not a party to this Agreement, any rights or remedies, including without limitation, any right to employment or continued employment for any specified period, of any nature or kind whatsoever, under or by reason of this Agreement.

26.                          Termination of Former Agreements; Release .

(a)                                  The Company and Employee hereby agree that this Agreement supersedes and replaces, in its or their entirety, all current or former agreements or contracts that Employee has or had with the Company or any of its current or former Subsidiaries or Affiliates relating in any way to Employee’s employment, compensation, or other benefits (collectively, the “ Former Agreements ”), including, without limitation, any employment letters or employment agreements.

(b)                                  EMPLOYEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EMPLOYEE HAS READ THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT EMPLOYEE FULLY KNOWS, UNDERSTANDS AND APPRECIATES ITS CONTENTS, AND THAT EMPLOYEE HEREBY EXECUTES THE SAME AND MAKES THIS AGREEMENT VOLUNTARILY AND OF EMPLOYEE’S OWN FREE WILL.

27.                          No Offset .  Except as set forth in the Executive Severance Plan, there shall be no right of offset by the Company for any debts or obligations due to Employee by the Company or its Affiliates against any amounts due Employee hereunder.

III.                               Employee understands that payments or benefits paid or granted to Employee under paragraph II above represent consideration for signing this Release and are not salary, wages or benefits to which Employee was already entitled.
