Separate Covenants and Severability Sample Clauses
The Separate Covenants and Severability clause ensures that each promise or obligation within an agreement is treated as independent from the others, and that if any part of the contract is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will still be effective. In practice, this means that if a court strikes down one section of the contract, the rest of the agreement remains intact and enforceable. This clause is essential for maintaining the overall validity of a contract, as it prevents the entire agreement from being voided due to issues with a single provision.

Separate Covenants and Severability. The covenants and agreements contained in this Section 12 shall be construed as separate and independent covenants. Should any part or provision of any such covenant or agreement be held invalid, void or unenforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction, no other part or provision of this Agreement shall be rendered invalid, void or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, no other part or provision of this Agreement shall be rendered invalid, void or unenforceable as a result. If any portion of the foregoing provisions is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction unless modified, it is the intent of the parties that the otherwise invalid or unreasonable term shall be reformed, or a new enforceable term provided, so as to most closely effectuate the provisions as is validly possible.
