Common use of Enforcement of Restrictions Clause in Contracts

Enforcement of Restrictions. (a) Employee acknowledges that the restrictions imposed under Sections 8 and 9, in view of the nature of the businesses in which the Company is engaged and Employee's position with the Company, are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company. However, Employee agrees that if any of these restrictions is construed to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the restrictions shall not be affected, and if any restriction is held to be unenforceable because of the area covered, the duration or the scope, Employee agrees that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the area and/or the duration, and/or limit the scope, and the restriction shall then be enforceable in its reduced form. (b) The Company and Employee intend that the restrictions set forth in Sections 8 and 9 be observed and enforced for the full duration of the applicable period described in those Sections, and the Company and Employee agree that, if Employee violates these restrictions during such period, then the Company shall be entitled to an injunction restraining such violation (in addition to all other remedies the Company may have at law or in equity). (c) Employee acknowledges and accepts that the restrictions and remedies in Sections 8 and 9 will apply without regard to the reason for termination of the Employment and without regard to whether the Employment is terminated by Employee or by the Company.
