26.Specific Performance
Each of the parties recognizes that a party’s breach of its respective obligations under this Agreement may give rise to irreparable harm for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy, and accordingly agree that, in addition to any other remedies including damages, any other party shall be entitled to seek equitable remedies, including without limitation injunctions, interdicts, restraining orders and to enforce the terms of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance, in each case without the necessity of proving the inadequacy as a remedy of money damages or the posting of any bond or other security.

In such event, the affected party shall give written notice of suspension as soon as reasonably practicable to the other party stating the date and extent of such suspension and the cause thereof, and the affected party shall resume the performance of such obligations as soon as reasonably practicable after the removal of the cause and such shall so notify the other party.
