Accordingly, the Breaching Party agrees that the Non-Breaching Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter (subject to the provisions set forth in Section 10.3 above), in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at law or in equity.

8.8 Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither any failure nor any delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one Party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other Party; (b) no waiver that may be given by a Party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one Party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of that Party or of the right of the Party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

8.9 Non-compete. For a period of three (3) years following the Closing, Seller and its principals will not individually, or as a member, employee or agent of any partnership, or as an officer, agent, employee, director, stockholder (except of not more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding stock of any company purchased for investment purposes only) or investor, of any other corporation, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, join, control or work for or permit-the use of his name by, or be connected in any manner with, any business or activity in the world, which is directly competitive with any aspect of the Transferred Business. It is intended that the covenant contained in this Section 8.9 shall be deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for each country. Except for geographic coverage, each such separate covenant contained shall be deemed identical in terms with the covenant contained in said paragraph. If in any judicial proceeding, a court should refuse to enforce all of the separate covenants deemed included in paragraph (a) because, taken together, they cover too extensive a geographic area, it is intended that those of such covenants (taken in the case of provinces, states, territories or counties of the applicable states, territories or counties which are least populous) which, if eliminated, would permit the remaining separate covenants to be enforced in such proceedings, shall, for the purpose of such proceedings, be deemed eliminated for the provisions hereof.

8.10 Attorneys’ Fees.

(a) In any action, arbitration proceeding or other litigation (“Litigation”) between the Parties to declare the enforceable rights granted in this Agreement or to enforce the enforceable provisions of this Agreement, the party prevailing in the Litigation, whether at trial or on appeal, shall be entitled to its costs and expenses of suit, including, without limitation, a reasonable sum as and for attorneys’ fees incurred in such Litigation. The term “prevailing party” as used in this paragraph shall not be limited to a prevailing plaintiff, but shall also include, without limitation, any party who is made a defendant in Litigation in which damages or other relief or both may be sought against such party and a final judgment or dismissal or decree is entered in such Litigation in favor of such party defendant.

(b) Attorneys’ fees incurred in enforcing any judgment rendered in connection with the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement (“Judgment”) are recoverable by the party in whose favor such Judgment is rendered, as a separate item of damages. The provisions of this paragraph are severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and shall survive any such Judgment, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not be deemed merged into any such Judgment.

8.11 Failure to Make Final Payment. If Buyer fails to make the final $40,000 payment within sixty (60) days after Closing and Seller is not in default under this Agreement, then Seller may elect in its sole discretion the following remedy in lieu of collecting the delinquent payment: (a) void paragraph 8.9— Noncompete so that it is unenforceable and no longer effective; (b) obtain from Buyer, effective immediately after such sixtieth (60th) day without any further action from Buyer, a nonexclusive, royalty-free, perpetual and transferable sublicense to the intellectual property assets and patents described in Sections 1.1(c) and 1.1(aa) and all improvements thereto, for any purpose; and (c) obtain from Buyer a release and covenant not to sue Seller and its successors for infringement of any of the intellectual property described in Sections 1.1(c) and 1.1(aa), effective immediately after such sixtieth (60th) day without any further action from Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may elect to waive the automatic remedies set forth in subsection (a)-(c), above, and instead, elect to sue Buyer to recoup the $40,000 payment.
