    Subdivision 1. Remedies. Any person who would suffer injury from any threatened violation
of sections 325D.30 to 325D.42 may maintain an action to enjoin such actual or threatened
violation and proof of actual damages need not be alleged or proved in cases of threatened

including reasonable attorneys fees. Where alleged and proved, the plaintiff, in addition to such
injunctive relief and cost of suit including reasonable attorneys fees, shall be entitled to recover
from defendant the actual damages sustained.
    Subd. 2. Government agency sales. All state, municipal and other governmental agencies
shall be governed by the Minnesota Unfair Cigarette Sales Act, and no such agency of government
shall accept any bid offer which is below the "cost to wholesaler" as defined by section 325D.32,
subdivision 10 , clause (1) nor shall sell such cigarettes at a cost less than provided for in section
325D.32, subdivision 11.
