Executive acknowledges that this Section 10, its terms and his compliance are necessary to protect the Company's Confidential and Proprietary Information, its business and its goodwill, and that a breach of any of Executive's promises contained in this Section 10 will irreparably and continually damage the Company to an extent that money damages may not be adequate. For these reasons, Executive agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Executive of this Section 10, the Company shall be entitled to a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction restraining Executive from such breach, without the posting of a bond. Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available for such breach or threatened breach or any other breach of this Agreement.
