(iii)(A) the broadcasting company terminates the broadcasting employee for cause; or
(B) the broadcasting employee breaches the employment contract in a manner that results in the broadcasting employee no longer being employed by the broadcasting company.
(b) A post-employment restrictive covenant described in Subsection (2)(a) is enforceable for no longer than the earlier of:
(i) one year after the day on which the broadcasting employee is no longer employed by the broadcasting company; or
