requirement of posting a bond or other security, to enforce this Agreement in accordance with the terms
hereof by seeking immediate equitable relief, including specific performance and/or a temporary,
preliminary and permanent injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction. The Company may
pursue both monetary damages and equitable relief concurrently or consecutively, in any order, as to any
breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, and the pursuit of any one of such remedies at any time
will not be deemed an election of remedies or waiver of the right to pursue any other remedies, it being
agreed that all rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to and not in
substitution for any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity or otherwise.
