Covenants of Sections. 7 and 8 are Essential and Independent. The covenants by the Employee in Section 7 and Section 8 are essential elements of this Agreement, and without the Employee's agreement to comply with such covenants, the Employer would not have entered into this Agreement, offered employment to the Employee or offered the Employee the Salary and Benefits and other consideration provided hereunder. The Employee's covenants in Section 7 and Section 8 are independent covenants and the existence of any claim by the Employee against the Employer under this Agreement or otherwise, or against any affiliate of Employer, will not excuse the Employee's breach of any covenant in Section 7 or Section 8. If the Employee's employment hereunder expires or is terminated, this Agreement will continue in full force and effect as is necessary or appropriate to enforce the covenants and agreements of the Employee in Section 7 and Section 8.
