4.4. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

4.5. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law. If, however, any provision of this Agreement shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such provisions shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. In such a case, the parties shall, and the court of competent jurisdiction may, replace the invalid provision with a legally permissible arrangement, which comes nearest to the intended purpose of the invalid provision.

4.6. Waiver. The failure to enforce at any time any of the provisions of this Agreement or to require at any time performance by another party of any of the provisions hereof shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provisions or to affect either the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof or the right of any party thereafter to enforce each and every provision in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

4.7. Construction with Other Agreements. The terms of this Agreement are intended to be cumulative with and not a replacement of, amendment to, or rescission of any terms of any pre-existing Agreement between the parties on the issues of confidentiality, intellectual property ownership, faithful performance and/or non-competition, and the terms of any such pre-existing agreement shall remain in full force and effect. To the extent of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any such pre-existing agreement between the parties, the terms of such pre-existing agreement shall prevail.

5. Employee Acknowledgments. Employee hereby expressly acknowledges that: (a) Employee has read this Agreement fully and completely; (b) Employee was given adequate opportunity to consult with legal counsel and understands each of the terms and conditions hereof; (c) the terms and conditions contained herein are reasonable and to Employee’s knowledge, enforceable; (d) Employee does not rely on any other promise or representation in entering into this Agreement, except as expressly set forth herein and (e) Employee enters into this Agreement freely, without coercion and based upon Employee’s own judgment.

6. Enforcement.

Employee also agrees that in addition to any other remedies available to Blue Buffalo, including an action for damages, Blue Buffalo may seek injunctive relief against Employee for a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement. Employee waives the posting of any bond or surety by Blue Buffalo in connection with or as a condition of the issuance of any such injunction. If Blue Buffalo seeks enforcement of this Agreement based upon a breach of any covenant of this Agreement and is the prevailing party, Blue Buffalo shall be entitled to an award of the reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal costs and expenses incurred in that effort.
