Each party acknowledges and agrees that its disclosure of the other party's Confidential Information would cause substantial harm for which damages alone would not be an adequate remedy, and that upon any such disclosure the disclosing party will be entitled to injunctive relief in addition to what other remedies it might have at law. This clause survives the expiry or termination of any Contract or this MSA.
