Severability; Interpretation. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors. Where the effect of a requirement of the 1940 Act reflected in any provision of this Agreement is altered by a rule, regulation or order of the SEC, whether of special or general application, such provision shall be deemed to incorporate the effect of such rule, regulation or order.
Severability; Interpretation. The fact that a particular provision in this OCC is held under any applicable law to be void or unenforceable in no way affects the validity of other provisions, and this OCC will continue to be binding on both Parties. Any provision that is held to be void or unenforceable will be interpreted by the Parties or the courts to be replaced with language that is as close as possible to the intent of the original provision so as to effectuate the purpose of this OCC. Any ambiguous or conflicting terms shall be interpreted and construed in such a manner as to accomplish the purpose of this OCC.
Severability; Interpretation. Whenever possible, each of the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law. If any provisions of this Agreement (including but not limited to Sections 8, 10 through 12) or the application of any provision of this Agreement to any party or circumstance shall be prohibited by, or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition without invalidating the remainder of such provision, any other provision of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to other parties or circumstances. Headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only.
Severability; Interpretation. The parties acknowledge and agree that the terms of Sections 7, 9-11 and 13-21 are severable from the remainder of this Agreement and supported by adequate consideration. In the event any one or more whole or partial provisions of this Agreement shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining whole or partial provisions shall not be affected, and such adjudication shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such whole or partial provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties further agree that if any whole or partial restrictive covenant in this Agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable because overly broad in geographic scope, activity or time duration, this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such invalid or unenforceable whole or partial provision were not contained herein; provided, however, if, under applicable law, such whole or partial provision may be modified or interpreted so as to be enforceable, that provision shall be so modified or interpreted so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
Severability; Interpretation. If any portion of this Agreement shall be declared illegal or held unenforceable for any reason, the remaining portions shall continue in full force and effect. Any questions of particular interpretation shall not be interpreted against the drafter of this Agreement, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.
Severability; Interpretation. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this agreement shall for any reason be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof and this agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. Whenever required by the context, as used in this agreement, the singular number shall include the plural and the neuter shall include the masculine or feminine gender, and vice versa.
Severability; Interpretation. If and to the extent any provision of this Agreement or the other Terms of Service is held illegal, invalid, or unenforceable in whole or in part under applicable law, such provision or such portion thereof will be ineffective as to the jurisdiction in which it is illegal, invalid, or unenforceable to the extent of its illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability and will be deemed modified to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law so as to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties. The illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability of such provision in that jurisdiction will not in any way affect the legality, validity, or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction or of any other provision in any jurisdiction.
Severability; Interpretation. If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision of this Agreement to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement will otherwise remain in effect. Section headings are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of the agreement.
Severability; Interpretation. If any provision of this Agreement is held illegal, invalid or unenforceable in a jurisdiction, this Agreement will, in such circumstances, be deemed modified in such jurisdiction to the extent necessary to render enforceable the provisions hereof, and such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any other provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. It is the intent of the parties hereto that this Agreement comply with the requirements for like-kind exchanges pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code and the regulations thereunder and for a like-kind exchange program pursuant to Revenue Procedure 2003-39. To the greatest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with such intent.
Severability; Interpretation. The fact that a particular provision in this Agreement is held under any applicable law to be void or unenforceable in no way affects the validity of other provisions, and this Agreement will continue to be binding on the parties. Any provision that is held to be void or unenforceable will be interpreted by the parties or the courts to be replaced with language that is as close as possible to the intent of the original provision so as to effectuate the purpose of this Agreement. Any ambiguous or conflicting terms shall be interpreted and construed in such a manner as to accomplish the purpose of this Agreement.
