contained in this Section&nbsp;8 are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the legitimate business interests of the Company, that they create no undue hardships, that any violation of these restrictions would cause substantial injury to the
Company and such interests, and that such restrictions were a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement. In the event of any violation or threatened violation of these restrictions, the Company, in addition to and not in
limitation of, any other rights, remedies or damages available to the Company under this Agreement or otherwise at law or in equity, shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent or restrain any such violation by you

involved in obtaining such relief, be deprived of the benefit of the full period of the Restrictive Covenant. Accordingly, the Restrictive Covenant shall be deemed to have the duration specified herein computed from the date the relief is granted
but reduced by the time between the period when the Restrictive Period began to run and the date of the first violation of the Restrictive Covenant by you. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that your
employment is terminated without Cause or you resign for Good Reason and the Company reasonably determines in good faith that you have violated any provision of Section&nbsp;8, then the Company shall be entitled to discontinue any payments or
benefits that would otherwise be provided to you under Section&nbsp;7(a) or Section&nbsp;7(c) and you shall forfeit your rights to the same. </P>
