§78-87.
   
   A. Actual or threatened misappropriation may be enjoined. Upon
   application to the court, an injunction shall be terminated when the
   trade secret has ceased to exist, but the injunction may be continued
   for an additional reasonable period of time in order to eliminate
   commercial advantage that otherwise would be derived from the
   misappropriation.
   
   B. In exceptional circumstances, an injunction may condition future
   use upon payment of a reasonable royalty for no longer than the period
   of time for which use could have been prohibited. Exceptional
   circumstances include, but are not limited to, a material and
   prejudicial change of position prior to acquiring knowledge or reason
   to know of a misappropriation that renders a prohibitive injunction
   inequitable.
   
   C. In appropriate circumstances, affirmative acts to protect a trade
   secret may be compelled by court order.
