The Company and the Executive recognize that each party may have                no                adequate remedy at law for breach by the other of any of the agreements                contained herein, and, in the event of any such breach, the Company                and                the Executive hereby agree and consent that the other shall be entitled                to                injunctive relief or other appropriate remedy to enforce performance                of                such agreements. In the event of a breach of this Agreement, then                the                prevailing party in any litigation instituted to enforce such breach                shall                have the right to recover from the losing party its costs related                thereto,                including legal fees, court costs, and any other reasonable expenses                incurred. |

Any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to effect any action specified                in                the immediately preceding sentence shall, to the full extent permitted                by                law, be null, void and of no effect. Any of the foregoing to the                contrary                notwithstanding, this provision shall not preclude the Executive                from                designating one or more beneficiaries to receive any amount that                may be                payable after his death, and shall not preclude the legal representative                of the Executive’s estate from assigning any right hereunder to the person                or persons entitled thereto under his will or, in the case of intestacy,                applicable to his estate. |
