Section 18.                                   Equitable Remedies

 

Each of the Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Forbearance Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached or threatened to be breached by any of the Loan Parties, and (b) remedies at law would not be adequate to compensate the Administrative Agent and the Consenting Lenders.  Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and each of the Consenting Lenders shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches by any of the Loan Parties of the provisions of this Forbearance Agreement and to enforce its rights hereunder not only by an action or actions for damages but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy.  The right to equitable relief, including specific performance and injunctive relief, shall exist notwithstanding, and shall not be limited by, any other provision of this Forbearance Agreement.  Each of the Loan Parties hereby waives any defense that a remedy at law is adequate and any requirement to post bond or other security in connection with actions instituted for injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable remedies.  Each of the Loan Parties hereby agrees not to assert that specific performance, injunctive and other equitable remedies are unenforceable, violate public policy, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason.  The right of specific performance, injunctive and other equitable remedies is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Forbearance Agreement and, without that right, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the Consenting Lenders would have entered into this Forbearance Agreement.
