You agree that any material breach of Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7 of the Terms will result in irreparable harm to Particle Programmatica for which damages would be an inadequate remedy and, therefore, in addition to its rights and remedies otherwise available at law, Particle Programmatica will be entitled to equitable relief, including both a preliminary and permanent injunction, if such a breach occurs.  You waive any requirement for the posting of a bond or other security if Particle Programmatica seeks such an injunction.

Rights and obligations under the Terms which by their nature should survive will remain in full effect after termination or expiration of the Terms.  

Any express waiver or failure to exercise promptly any right under the Terms will not create a continuing waiver or any expectation of non-enforcement.
