Invalid or Unenforceable Provisions The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision of this Agreement shall not affect the other provisions hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed in all respects as if the invalid or unenforceable provisions were omitted.
UNENFORCEABLE PROVISION In the event that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable or held to be unenforceable, then the parties agree that all other provisions of this Agreement have force and effect and shall not be affected thereby.
Unenforceable Provisions If any provision of this Agreement is deemed unenforceable, the rest of the Agreement shall remain in effect and the Parties shall negotiate in good faith and seek to agree upon a substitute provision that will achieve the original intent of the Parties.
Unenforceable Terms Any provision hereof prohibited by law or unenforceable under the law of any jurisdiction in which such provision is applicable shall as to such jurisdiction only be ineffective without affecting any other provision of this Agreement. To the full extent, however, that such applicable law may be waived to the end that this Agreement be deemed to be a valid and binding agreement enforceable in accordance with its terms, the Parties hereto hereby waive such applicable law knowingly and understanding the effect of such waiver.
Invalidity or Unenforceability of Any Provision The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement and any invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed to be severed.
Invalidity or Unenforceability If any term or provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision hereof and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such invalid or unenforceable term or provision (to the extent of the invalidity or unenforceability) had not been contained herein.
Partial Unenforceability The invalidity or unenforceability of any Section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other Section, paragraph or provision hereof. If any Section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement is for any reason determined to be invalid or unenforceable, there shall be deemed to be made such minor changes (and only such minor changes) as are necessary to make it valid and enforceable.
Unenforceability of Provisions If any provision of this Agreement, or any portion thereof, is held to be invalid and unenforceable, then the remainder of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.
Unenforceability The fact that any collateral, security, security interest or lien contemplated or intended to be given, created or granted as security for the repayment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, shall not be properly perfected or created, or shall prove to be unenforceable or subordinate to any other security interest or lien, it being recognized and agreed by Guarantor that Guarantor is not entering into this Guaranty in reliance on, or in contemplation of the benefits of, the validity, enforceability, collectibility or value of any of the collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations.
Invalidity or Unenforceability Defenses or Actions In the event that a Third Party or Sublicensee asserts, as a defense or as a counterclaim in any infringement action under Section 8.4.1, that any Ambit Licensed Patent or Program Patent is invalid or unenforceable, then the Party pursuing such infringement action shall promptly give written notice to the other Party. Where such allegation is made in an opposition, reexamination, interference or other patent office proceeding, the provisions of Section 8.3.7 shall apply. Where such allegation is made in a counterclaim to a suit or other action brought under Section 8.4.1, the Party with the first right to enforce the Patent Rights at issue shall have the first right to respond to such defense or defend against such counterclaim (as applicable) and the provisions of Section 8.4.1 (including step-in rights and control over settlement) shall apply. In all other cases, including any declaratory judgment action or similar action or claim filed by a Third Party asserting that any Ambit Licensed Patent or Program Patent is invalid or unenforceable, Astellas shall have the first right to defend such action, at Astellas’s expense, and Ambit will cooperate with Astellas, at Astellas’s expense in such defense. In the event Astellas does not so elect to defend an action with respect to any Ambit Licensed Patent or Program Patent under this Section 8.3.8, it shall so notify Ambit in writing, and Ambit shall have the right to so defend such action, at Ambit’s expense; provided, however, that Ambit shall obtain the written consent of Astellas prior to ceasing to defend, settling or otherwise compromising such defense or counterclaim if such action is likely to materially adversely affect Astellas’s interests in the applicable Ambit Licensed Patent or Program Patent or rights under this Agreement. Each Party shall provide to the Party defending any such rights under this Section 8.3.8 all reasonable assistance in such enforcement, at such defending Party’s request and expense. The defending Party shall keep the other Party regularly informed of the status and progress of such efforts, and shall reasonably consider the other Party’s comments on any such efforts.
