It's basically just saying that you won't cut the recruiter out the deal by taking a job directly with the firm he introduced you to. I've never used a recruiter so I don't know how standard this is but with hiring companies out there screwing recruiters out of their fees it looks like he is just putting the penalty on you if you take a job outside of him with any company he had sent your resume to or had you interview with.
The only thing you can't really control is who he shares your resume with, so that would be the piece to remove or alter. He needs to have a penalty clause with his customer for that not you.
