- REMEDIES. Without limiting the remedies available to the Licensor at law or in equity (including, but not limited to, the right to keep the Use Fee or any portion thereof), in the event of any breach by User or any of User’s guests of any provision of this agreement, Licensor may, at its sole discretion, refuse User or any of User’s guests permission to enter or remain in the Arena or the Suite, may eject User or any of User’s guests from the Arena and the Suite, may remove from the Arena and the Suite property of User or any of User’s guests, and may terminate this Agreement and cancel all tickets and passes issued pursuant hereto.
