Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any person or entity other than the parties hereto any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement and all of its provisions and conditions are for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and assigns.

23.7.

Severability.

23.11.

Catalyst Supply Failure. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that P2O, after receiving a Purchase Order from Customer, and provided such Purchase Order is for a quantity of Catalyst included in the then-current Forecast pursuant to Section 4 above, is unable to satisfy the Purchase Order in the total of the time provided hereunder plus the 90-day supplier inventory under Section 4, Customer may access the formula and other information placed in escrow as provided in Section 11.8, shall not be responsible for paying for the unfulfilled Purchase Order, shall be automatically entitled to a license of the technology necessary to produce the Catalyst, and may have replacement Catalyst supplied by a third party or create the Catalyst itself.

23.12.

Compliance with the Law. Customer shall comply with all applicable laws, regulations and ordinances.

23.13.

Equitable Relief.

23.13.1.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that (a) a breach or threatened breach by Customer of any of its obligations under Sections 16 and 15 would give rise to irreparable harm to P2O for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and (b) in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Customer of any such obligations, P2O shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to P2O at law, at equity or otherwise in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, and without any requirement to prove actual damages or that monetary damages will not afford an adequate remedy. Customer agrees that Customer will not oppose or otherwise challenge the appropriateness of equitable relief or the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of an order granting equitable relief, in either case, consistent with the terms of this Section 23.13.

23.13.2.

Each party acknowledges that a breach by the other party of this Agreement may cause the non-breaching party irreparable harm, for which an award of damages would not be adequate compensation and, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including in the form of a restraining order, orders for preliminary or permanent injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from any court. These remedies shall not be deemed to be exclusive but shall be in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement at law or in equity, subject to any express exclusions or limitations in this Agreement to the contrary.

23.14.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.
