  5. General

 

  5.1. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon the Employee’s heirs, executors, administrators and other legal representatives and will be for the benefit of the Company Group, its successors, and its assigns.

 

 
 

 

  5.2. Waiver. No waiver by the Company of any breach of this Agreement shall be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach. No waiver by the Company of any right under this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of any other right. The Company shall not be required to give notice to enforce strict adherence to all terms of this Agreement.
     
  5.3. Assignment. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company. The Employee may not assign or delegate his duties under this Agreement without the Company’s prior written approval.
     
  5.4. Injunction. The Employee agrees that it would be difficult to measure damage to the Company Group from any breach of his undertakings set forth in Sections 1-3 above, and that injury to the Company from any such breach would be impossible to calculate, and that money damages would therefore be an inadequate remedy for any such breach. Accordingly, the Employee agrees that if he breaches any provision of Sections 1-3 hereof, the Company Group will be entitled, in addition to all other remedies it may have, to an injunction or other appropriate orders to restrain any such breach by the Employee without showing or proving any actual damage sustained by the Company Group.
     
  5.5. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel, without giving effect to the rules respecting conflict-of-law.
