as
to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
Agreement is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
unenforceable or invalid under applicable law, such provision will be effective

being deemed a separate period of time and each radius mile of the restricted
territory being deemed a separate geographical area, so that the lesser period

jurisdiction determines the specified period or the specified geographical
area
of the restricted territory to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public
policy, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or
reform
such provision so that a lesser time period or geographical area which is
determined to be reasonable, non-arbitrary, and not against public policy
may be
enforced. If the Employee violates any of the covenants contained herein
and if
any court action is instituted to prevent or enjoin such violation, then
the
period of time during which the Employee shall be restricted, as provided
in
this Agreement, shall be lengthened by a period of time equal to the period

appeal.

remedies.
All
rights and remedies of the parties shall be cumulative, and the parties shall
have the right to obtain all available equitable remedies against each other
for
the enforcement of this Agreement.
(h) Non-Waiver.
The
failure of either party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the
terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed
as a
waiver or relinquishment of future compliance therewith or with any other
term,
condition or provision hereof, and said terms, conditions and provisions
shall
remain in full force and effect. No waiver of any term or condition of this
Agreement on the part of either party shall be effective for any purpose
whatsoever unless such waiver is in writing and signed by such
party.
