Pre-Closing Disputes. The Parties agree that, prior to the Closing, irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by the Parties in accordance with their specific terms (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby) or were otherwise breached or violated by the Parties. The Parties agree and acknowledge that, prior to the Closing, each of the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement by another Party and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof against the other Parties, in addition to any other remedy to which such Party is entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees and acknowledges that such Party will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that there is an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. In seeking an injunction or injunctions pre-Closing to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, no Party shall be required to provide any bond or other security.
