8.         Remedies.  Except to the extent such information is publicly disclosed by the Employer, if Employee tells anyone any of the terms of this Agreement, breaches any other term or condition of this Agreement, or any representation made by Employee in this Agreement was false when made, it shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement.  Further, in the event of a breach by Employee of his/her obligations under this Agreement, Employee agrees to pay all of the Released Parties’ attorneys’ fees and other costs associated with enforcing the terms this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that Employee shall have no automatic repayment obligations or obligation to pay the Released Parties’ attorneys’ fees and other costs associated with enforcing the terms of this Agreement if Employee were to challenge the ADEA waiver only.
