Interpretation and Severability. Any paragraph, phrase or other provision of this Agreement that is determined by a court, arbitrator or arbitration panel of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable or in conflict with any applicable statute or rule, shall be deemed, if possible, to be modified or altered so that it is not unreasonable or in conflict or, if that is not possible, then it shall be deemed omitted from this Agreement. The invalidity of any portion of this Agreement shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions. Further, should any clause, sentence, provision, paragraph, or part of this Agreement be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction, or be held by any other competent governmental authority having jurisdiction, to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, such judgment or holding shall not affect, impair, or invalidate the remainder of the Agreement, but shall be confined to the greatest extent possible in its operation to the particular clause, sentence, provision, paragraph, or part of the agreement directly involved, and the remainder of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
