Severability and Heading Clause Samples

The Severability and Heading clause ensures that if any part of the contract is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will still remain in effect. In practice, this means that if a court strikes down a specific section, the rest of the agreement continues to operate as intended, and the invalid portion may be modified only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable. Additionally, the clause clarifies that section headings are included for convenience and do not affect the interpretation of the contract. This clause is essential for maintaining the integrity and enforceability of the contract, even if certain provisions are challenged or found defective.
Severability and Heading. Any provision of this Agreement which is held invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without invalidating or rendering unenforceable the remaining provisions hereof. And any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provisions in any other jurisdiction. All paragraph headings are purely for convenience and do not form any part of this Agreement.
