|
|

|
Remedy – The parties acknowledge that, due to the unique nature of the Confidential Information of the other party and the knowledge and experience of its directors, officers and employees, there may be irreparable damage in the event that any of the provisions of Section 5 or Section 10.4 are violated by a party and that monetary damages alone may be inadequate to protect the interests of the other party against any such actual or threatened breach thereof. Therefore and notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Section 10.7, the parties agree that such provisions shall be enforceable by issuance by a court of competent jurisdiction of an injunctive or other interim relief or order restraining the unauthorized use or disclosure of any Confidential Information or the solicitation, without the necessity of proving actual damages or securing or posting any bond in connection with such remedy which shall be cumulative with, and not exclusive to, any other remedies available at law or equity.
|
|

|
Cumulative Remedies – Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each and all of the rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, and each and all of the remedies allowed at law or in equity, shall be cumulative, and the exercise of one right or remedy shall not be exclusive of the right to exercise or resort to any and all other rights or remedies provided in this Agreement, at law or in equity.
|
|
10.10
|
Waiver and Severability – No waiver by any party of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision, or shall any waiver be deemed to constitute a continuing waiver. If any provision of this Agreement shall be declared invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an arbitrator, the validity, binding effect, or enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected and shall continue in full force and effect as if this Agreement had been executed with the invalid provision eliminated or so modified; provided, however, that if the deletion of such provision materially impairs the commercial value of this Agreement to either party, the parties shall attempt to renegotiate such provision in good faith.
|
|
10.11
|
Entire Agreement and Amendment – This Agreement, its recitals, schedules, the agreements and other documents, required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the parties and set forth all the covenants, promises, warranties, representations, conditions, understandings and agreements between the parties pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether verbal or written. This Agreement may be amended or otherwise modified only by means of a written instrument executed by the parties.
|
|

|
Assignment – This Agreement shall enure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and may not be assigned or otherwise transferred, by either party without the consent of the other party which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
