The Executive understands and agrees that the restrictions contained in this Section 8 are reasonable and are required for Hipsos legitimate protection, and do not unduly limit his ability to earn a livelihood. (e) Rights and Remedies upon Breach. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that any breach by him of any of the provisions of Sections 7 and 8 (the Restrictive Covenants) would result in irreparable injury and damage for which money damages would not provide an adequate remedy. Therefore, if the Executive breaches, or threatens to commit a breach of, any of the provisions of the Restrictive Covenants, Hipso shall have the following rights and remedies, each of which rights and remedies shall be independent of the other and severally enforceable, and all of which rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to Hipso under law or in equity (including, without limitation, the recovery of damages): (i) The right and remedy to have the Restrictive Covenants specifically enforced (without posting bond and without the need to prove damages) by any court of competent jurisdiction, including, without limitation, the right to an entry against the Executive of restraining orders and injunctions (preliminary, mandatory, temporary and permanent) against violations, threatened or actual, and whether or not then continuing, of such covenants; and (ii) The right and remedy to require the Executive to account for and pay over to Hipso and its affiliates all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits (collectively, Benefits) derived or received by him as the result of any transactions constituting a breach of the Restrictive Covenants, and the Executive shall account for and pay over such Benefits to Hipso and, if applicable, its affected affiliates. (f) Without limiting Section 11(i), if any court or other decision-maker of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, is unenforceable because of the duration or geographical scope of such provision, then, after such determination has become final and unappealable, the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, shall be reduced so that such provision becomes enforceable and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced. (g) The provisions of Section 8(a) shall not apply in the event that the Agreement is not renewed as provided in Section 1. 8. Executive Representation The Executive represents and warrants to Hipso that he is not now under any obligation of a contractual or other nature to any person, business or other entity which is inconsistent or in conflict with the Agreement or which would prevent him from performing his obligations under the Agreement.  4    9. Enforcement and Indemnification (a) Hipso . in its sole discretion, may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to seek injunctive relief and such other relief as Hipso or the Company shall elect to enforce the Restrictive Covenants. If the courts of any one or more of such jurisdictions hold the Restrictive Covenants wholly unenforceable by reason of breadth of scope or otherwise it is the intention of Hipso and the Executive that such determination not bar or in any way affect Hipsos right, or the right of any of its affiliates, to the relief provided in Section 8(e) above in the courts of any other jurisdiction within the geographical scope of such Restrictive Covenants, as to breaches of such Restrictive Covenants in such other respective jurisdictions, such Restrictive Covenants as they relate to each jurisdiction being, for this purpose, severable, diverse and independent covenants, subject, where appropriate, to the doctrine of res judicata. The Parties hereby agree to waive right to a trial by jury for any and all disputes hereunder (whether or not relating to the Restrictive Covenants). (b) Hipso will indemnify the Executive, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, against all costs, charges and expenses incurred or sustained by the Executive, including the cost of legal counsel selected and retained by the Executive in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which the Executive may be made a Party by reason of the Executive being or having been an officer, director, or employee of Hipso or any subsidiary or affiliate of Hipso.
