Reformation and Severability. In case any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall, to the extent possible, be modified in such manner as to be valid, legal and enforceable but so as to most nearly retain the intent of the parties, and if such modification is not possible, such provision shall be severed from this Agreement, and in either case the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
Reformation and Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision shall, to the extent possible, be modified in such manner as to be valid, legal and enforceable but so as to most nearly retain the intent of the parties hereto as expressed herein, and if such a modification is not possible, that provision shall be severed from this Agreement, and in either case the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
Reformation and Severability. Each provision of the contract is severable from all other provisions of the contract. If any provision of this contract is held unenforceable, then the contract will be modified to reflect the parties' original intent. All remaining provisions of the contract remain in full force and effect.
Reformation and Severability. In case any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall, to the extent possible, be modified in such manner as to be valid, legal and enforceable but so as to most nearly retain the intent of the parties, and if such modification is not possible, such provision shall be severed from this Agreement, and in either case the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted or construed against any party solely because that party or its legal representative drafted such provision.
Reformation and Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal in any jurisdiction under any circumstances for any reason, (a) that provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to cause such provision to be valid, enforceable and legal and preserve the original intent of the parties, or (b) if that provision cannot be so reformed, it shall be severed from this Agreement. The holding shall not affect or impair the validity, enforceability or legality of the provision in any other jurisdiction or under any other circumstances. Neither the holding nor the reformation or severance shall affect or impair the legality, validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement to the extent that the other provision is not itself actually in conflict with any applicable law. Upon a determination that any term or provision is invalid, unenforceable or illegal, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible.
Reformation and Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term hereof:

Reformation and Severability. I agree that if any provision, or portion of a provision, of this Agreement is deemed unenforceable by reason of the scope, extent or duration of its coverage, then such provision shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law so as to be valid and enforceable. Should any provision, or portion of a provision, of this Agreement be deemed unenforceable for any other reason, such unenforceability will not affect any other provision, or portion of a provision, of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be construed as if such unenforceable provision, or portion of provision, had never been contained herein.
Reformation and Severability. If it is determined by a court, arbitrator, or other adjudicator of competent jurisdiction that any restriction in this Section 7 is excessive with respect to geographic area, duration, or scope or is otherwise unreasonable or unenforceable, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended by the court, arbitrator, or adjudicator to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. In the event that modification is not possible or that the applicable law does not permit such reformation, then the Executive and the Company agree that, because each of the Executive’s obligations in this Section 7 is a separate and independent covenant, any unenforceable obligation shall be severed and all remaining obligations shall be enforced.
Reformation and Severability. Executive and Company intend and agree that if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the scope of any provision of this Agreement is too broad to be enforced as written, the court should reform such provision(s) to such narrower scope as it determines to be enforceable. Executive and Company further agree that if any provision of this Agreement is determined to be unenforceable for any reason, and such provision cannot be reformed by the court as anticipated above, such provision shall be deemed separate and severable and the unenforceability of any such provision shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any of the remaining provisions.
