  1. MISCELLANEOUS.

    1. Equitable Relief. You acknowledge that any actual or threatened breach of these Terms of Use will cause irreparable injury to Company, such injury would not be quantifiable in monetary damages, and Company would not have an adequate remedy at law. You therefore agree that Company is entitled, in addition to other available remedies, to seek and be awarded an injunction or other appropriate equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction restraining any actual or threatened breach of your obligations under any provision of these Terms of Use. Accordingly, you hereby waive any requirement that Company post any bond or other security if any injunctive or equitable relief is sought by or awarded to Company to enforce any provision of these Terms of Use.

    1. No Assignment. These Terms of Use are for the benefit of you and Company, as well as Partners and Company’s affiliates, successors and assigns. Accordingly, these Terms of Use are personal to you, and you may not assign your rights or obligations to any other person or entity without Company’s prior written consent.

    1. Waiver. Failure by Company to insist on strict performance of any of the terms and conditions of these Terms of Use will not operate as a waiver by Company of that or any subsequent default or failure of performance.

    1. Severability. If any provision (or part thereof) contained in these Terms of Use is determined to be void, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or on account of a conflict with an applicable government regulation, such determination will not affect the remaining provisions (or parts thereof) contained herein, and the illegal, invalid or unenforceable clause will be modified in compliance with applicable law in a manner that most closely matches the intent of the original language.
