Common use of Severability; Modification Clause in Contracts

Severability; Modification. You and the Company agree that it is their intention that the covenants in this Appendix A be enforced in accordance with their terms to the maximum extent permitted by law. Each of the covenants in this Appendix A shall be considered and construed as a separate and independent covenant. Should any part or provision of any of the covenants in this Appendix A be held invalid, void, or unenforceable, such invalidity, voidness, or unenforceability shall not render invalid, void, or unenforceable any other part or provision of this Appendix A or such covenant. If any of the provisions of the covenants in this Appendix A should ever be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the scope permitted by the applicable law, such provision or provisions shall be automatically modified to such lesser scope as such court may deem just and proper for the reasonable protection of the Company’s legitimate business interests and may be enforced by the Company to that extent in the manner described above and all other provisions of this Appendix A shall be valid and enforceable.
