Interpretation and Scope of this Agreement. (a) In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall be unenforceable in any respect, then such provision shall be deemed limited and restricted to the extent that the court shall deem the provision to be enforceable. It is the intention of the parties to this Agreement that the covenants and restrictions in this Agreement be given the broadest interpretation permitted by law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. The covenants and restrictions contained in this Agreement shall be deemed a series of separate covenants and restrictions. If, in any judicial proceeding, a court of competent jurisdiction should refuse to enforce all of the separate covenants and restrictions in this Agreement, then such unenforceable covenants and restrictions shall be deemed eliminated from the provisions of this Agreement for the purpose of such proceeding to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants and restrictions to be enforced in such proceeding.
(b) I acknowledge that the restrictions on the activities in which I may engage that are set forth in this Agreement and the location and period of time for which such restrictions apply are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company and shall survive the termination of my employment.

Interpretation and Scope of this Agreement. (a) Each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted on its own. If any provision is held to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction as written, then such provision shall be deemed limited and restricted to the extent that the court shall deem the provision to be enforceable. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. If it is ever held that any restriction hereunder is too broad to permit enforcement of such restriction to its fullest extent, such restriction shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

Accordingly, I acknowledge that Company shall be entitled to petition a court of competent jurisdiction for temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction (without being obligated to post a bond or other collateral) and to an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits and other benefits arising, directly or indirectly, from such violation, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to (rather than instead of) any other rights or remedies to which the Company may be entitled at law or in equity.

Interpretation and Scope of this Agreement. Each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted on its own. If any provision is held to be unenforceable as written, including but not limited to being too broad as to the period of time, territory, and/or scope, then, and in that event, such provision will nonetheless remain valid and fully effective, but will be considered to be amended so that the period of time, territory, and/or scope set forth will be changed to be the maximum period of time, the largest territory, and/or the broadest scope, as the case may be, that would be found enforceable by such court or arbitrator. In the event that one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held unenforceable in any respect under the law of any state of the United States or the United States, then it shall (a) be enforced to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law and (b) such unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall then be construed as if such unenforceable portion(s) had never been contained herein.
