Section 4.05 Non-Solicitation and Non-Interference. During the period ending on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company (whether such termination is by the Company or by the Executive), the Executive will not in any way, directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, partnership, firm, association, or corporation:

Section 4.07 Independent. The covenants set forth in the foregoing Sections of this Article IV are and shall be deemed and construed as separate and independent covenants. Should any part or provision of such covenants be held invalid, void or unenforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, voidness or unenforceability shall not render invalid, void or unenforceable any other part or provision thereof. Specifically, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any portion of Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.03, 4.04 or 4.05 is found to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction because its duration, the Territory and/or the Business are invalid or unreasonable in scope, such duration, Territory and/or Business, as the case may be, shall be redefined by consideration of the reasonable concerns and needs of the Company such that the intent of the Company and the Executive, in agreeing to Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05 and 4.06, will not be impaired and shall be enforceable to the fullest extent of the applicable laws.
