contained in this Agreement relate to special, unique and extraordinary matters, (b) the Company and Parent are relying on such covenants in connection with entering into the Merger Agreement and (c) a violation of any of the terms of such
covenants, obligations or agreements will cause the Company and Parent irreparable injury for which adequate remedies are not available at law and for which monetary damages are not readily ascertainable. Therefore, the parties hereto agree that the
Company and Parent shall be entitled to an injunction, restraining order or such other equitable relief as a court of competent jurisdiction may deem necessary or appropriate to restrain any Shareholder from committing any violation of such
