(a)
solicit, advise, provide or sell, directly or indirectly, any services or products of the same or similar nature to services or products of the Company to any client or prospective client of the Company in the Company Business.

4.6
Scope of Restrictive Covenants. In the event that any of the provisions of this Article 4 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service and/or other limitations permitted by applicable law in any jurisdiction, then such provisions shall be deemed reformed in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service and/or other limitations permitted by applicable law. If the covenants of this Article 4 are determined to be wholly or partially unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such determination shall not be a bar to or in any way diminish the Company’s right to enforce such covenants in any other jurisdiction.
4.7
Injunctive Relief. The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Article 4, the Company may suffer irreparable harm and money damages alone would not afford the Company an adequate remedy and, therefore, the Company shall be entitled to obtain immediate injunctive relief, including, without limitation, a temporary restraining order and a preliminary and permanent injunction, in any court of competent jurisdiction (without being obligated to post a bond or other collateral) restraining the Consultant from such breach or threatened breach of the restrictive covenants contained in this Article 4.

In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holder of the Warrants such that the provisions of this Warrant (including provisions with respect to the Exercise Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as is reasonably practicable, in relation to any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants; and
