Severability Contract Clauses (27,855)

Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement shall remain valid and enforceable and continue in full force and effect to the fullest extent consistent with law.

Severability. If any provision in this Agreement is invalid, inoperative, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions thereof remain in effect if both the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated thereby is not materially affected in any manner adverse to either Party. Otherwise, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to rewrite any such provision so as to, as nearly and fairly as possible, approach the economic and legal substance originally intended. 2 8. Construction. The language us...ed in this Agreement is deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction applies against any Party. Nor does any rule of construction favoring a non-draftsman apply. A reference to any statute is deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated under the statute, unless the context requires otherwise. Unless specifically otherwise provided or the context otherwise requires, the singular includes the plural and the plural the singular; the word "or" is deemed to include "and/or"; the words "including", "includes" and "include" are deemed to be followed by the words "without limitation"; the words "herein," "hereof," "hereby," "hereunder," "herewith," and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited; and references to sections or exhibits are to those of this Agreement. Headings in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose. View More

Severability. The invalidity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.
