  1. Peaceful Playgrounds and its employees have devoted substantial time, effort and resources to developing Peaceful Playgrounds’ Licensed Materials and its other confidential and proprietary information and that such trade secrets and other information are vital to the successful conduct of Peaceful Playgrounds’ business in the future. Because of Licensee’s access to Peaceful Playgrounds’ Licensed Materials, Licensee would be in a unique position to divert business from Peaceful Playgrounds and to commit irreparable damage to Peaceful Playgrounds. The ability to enforce restrictive covenants against Licensee is a material inducement to the decision of Peaceful Playgrounds to provide Licensee with the Licensed Materials;

  1. Specific Performance.

  3. Injunctive Relief. The proprietary information of FITNESS FUNZONE is of a special, unique, unusual and extraordinary nature, which gives it a peculiar value, the loss of which cannot reasonably or adequately be compensated for in damages in an action at law. The breach by Licensee of any provision of this Agreement would cause Peaceful Playgrounds irreparable injury and damage, the measure of which could not be adequately measured by law. Peaceful Playgrounds shall be entitled, as a matter of right in addition to and without the prejudice of any other right or remedy, to injunctive and other equitable relief in an appropriate count to prevent the violation of any provision of this Agreement by Licensee and/or to cause Licensee to comply with the respective provisions hereof, as applicable.
