What happens if a Hydrodog franchisee violates the Competitive Restriction?

or the Franchisor may prescribe from time to time to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information (collectively, the "Confidentiality Obligations").

• 1. Liquidated Damages. You acknowledge that the Franchisor would suffer substantial damages if you violated the Competitive Restriction set forth in Section 2 above. You acknowledge that that such damages are difficult to estimate accurately and proof of such damages would be burdensome and costly, although such damages are real and meaningful. Therefore, in the event that you violate any of the Competitive Restriction set forth in this Agreement, within 15 calendar days of such violation, you will pay us partial liquidated damages in the amount of our then-current initial franchise fee ("Competitive Liquidated Damages"). You agree that Competitive Liquidated Damages as calculated under this Section represent the best estimate the Franchisor would suffer for its costs and expenses of investigation and its internal non-legal costs to prepare to enforce its rights if you were to violate the Competitive Restriction set forth in this Agreement. Your payment of the Competitive Liquidated Damages will not be considered a penalty, but instead a reasonable estimate of fair compensation to the Franchisor for some of, but not all of, the damages, costs and expenses it will incur if you violate the Competitive Restriction. The Franchisor is also be entitled to recover all costs, including attorneys' fees incurred in connection with collection of Liquidated Damages as well as enforcing its rights. Without limiting the foregoing, the Competitive Liquidated Damages will not be the Franchisor's exclusive remedy, will not prevent us from seeking other actual or consequential damages, injunctive relief enjoining future violations of the Competitive Restriction, nor will it in any way limit the Franchisor' right to assert that we have no adequate remedy at law in the event of breach.

• 1. Severability and Substitution. You acknowledge and agree that these competitive restrictions will not unreasonably deprive you of your ability to earn a living or engage other business activities. You and we agree that: (a) the time period, geographic area, and scope of the competitive restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonably necessary to protect our localized efforts and the Franchisor's efforts to develop HydroDog Businesses throughout the U.S.;
