(c)

The Consultant agrees that any breach or threatened breach by Consultant of any provision of this Section 7 will, because of the unique nature of the Consultants services and the Confidential Information entrusted to Consultant, cause irreparable harm to the Company and shall entitle the Company, in addition to any other legal remedies available to it, to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin such breach or threatened breach, without having to prove irreparable harm or to post any bond.  Each restriction agreed to by the Consultant hereinabove shall be construed as separable and divisible from every other restriction, and the unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any such restriction, shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining restrictions and that one or more or all of such restrictions may be enforced in whole or in part as the circumstances warrant.  Furthermore, in the event that any such restriction is deemed by a court or an arbitrator, as the case may be, to be unenforceable, such restriction shall automatically, and without further action of the parties hereto, be revised to limit its scope and/or duration to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to make such restriction enforceable.  Consultant further acknowledges that the Company is relying upon such covenants as an inducement to provide Consultant with engagement and in connection therewith to permit Consultant to have continued access to Confidential Information.  The remedies set forth herein shall be cumulative and shall not be construed to limit any other remedy available at law or equity.

This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes any other agreement between the parties, whether written or oral.  No change, termination or attempted waiver of any of the provisions hereof shall be binding unless in writing and signed by the party against whom the same is sought to be enforced.
