ILLEGALITY AND SEVERANCE Sample Clauses
The "Illegality and Severance" clause defines how a contract should be interpreted and enforced if any part of it is found to be illegal or unenforceable. Typically, this clause states that if a specific provision is deemed unlawful by a court or regulatory authority, that provision will be removed or modified, while the remainder of the contract remains valid and enforceable. For example, if a non-compete clause is found to be too broad and thus unenforceable, only that part may be severed without affecting the rest of the agreement. The core function of this clause is to preserve the integrity and enforceability of the contract even if certain terms are invalidated, thereby preventing the entire agreement from being voided due to one problematic provision.
