will be no adequate remedy at law, and the non-breaching party will be entitled
to injunctive relief and/or a decree for specific performance, and such other relief
as may be proper (including monetary damages and, if appropriate, punitive

specify a revised delivery date as soon as practicable.
11.4 If Anduril determines its ability to support the total demands for the Product,
or to obtain material or technology used directly or indirectly in the manufacture
of the Product, is hindered or made impracticable due to causes set forth in
