| 3.5   | Enforcement                of Covenants.                Rodriguez acknowledges that he has carefully read and considered                all the                terms and conditions of this Agreement and consulted with counsel                of his                choice regarding this Agreement, including without limitation the                restraints imposed upon him pursuant to Section 3. Rodriguez agrees                that                said restraints are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection                of                ACPT, the Company and ACPT’s Affiliates. Rodriguez further acknowledges                that, were he to breach any of the covenants or agreements contained                in                Section 3 hereof, the damage to ACPT, the Company, and ACPT Affiliates                could be irreparable. The Executive therefore agrees that the Company,                in                addition to any other remedies available to it, shall be entitled                to                preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against any breach or                threatened breach by Rodriguez of any of said covenants or agreements. |
