Common use of Violation of Terms Clause in Contracts

Violation of Terms. In the event that Company becomes aware of information giving rise to a good faith belief that Executive may have violated or may be violating the terms of Sections 1 or 2, or both, Company shall be entitled to reasonably investigate whether such a violation has occurred or is occurring, and Executive agrees to cooperate in any such investigation by providing complete and truthful information, including documents and testimony, to Company upon its request and without charge. Company shall not be required to institute legal proceedings in order to conduct an investigation pursuant to this section, but Company shall not be precluded from doing so. During the pendency of the good faith investigation, Company shall have no obligation to make any payment otherwise due under Section 4. If such good faith investigation concludes without a finding of breach, Company shall promptly pay Executive any missed payment. In the event of a breach of Sections 1 or 2, or both, by Executive, Company shall have no further obligation to make the payments set forth in Section 4 below, and shall be entitled to immediately withhold such payments as have not been made and, at its election, seek specific performance of Executive’s obligations hereunder, seek recovery of any payments that have already been made to Executive hereunder plus compensatory and other damages, or seek any combination of equitable relief and damages that is permissible under applicable law. Executive further agrees that any breach or threatened breach of Sections 1 or 2, or both, will cause irreparable injury to Company, and that money damages alone will not provide an adequate remedy to Company. In addition, Company shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney fees and other costs in the event it prevails in any legal action or other proceedings to enforce any section of this Agreement.
