Executive will devote his best efforts to his employment with the Company and will devote substantially all of his business time and attention to the performance of his duties under this Agreement; provided that the foregoing will not preclude Executive from devoting reasonable time to the supervision of his personal investments, civic and charitable affairs, so long as such activities do not materially interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder.

 

2. Term of Employment . Unless terminated earlier as provided in Paragraph 3, the Company’s employment of Executive under this Agreement will continue until January 14, 2009; provided , however , that the term of employment under this Agreement will be automatically renewed for successive one-year periods (the first of which will commence on January 15, 2009) unless, at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the then current term of employment under this Agreement, Executive or the Company gives written notice to the other of the notifying party’s intent not to renew the term of employment under this Agreement as of the end of the then current term.
