severable or invalid, or if any term, condition, phrase or portion of this agreement shall be
determined to be unlawful or otherwise unenforceable, the remainder of this agreement shall
remain in full force and effect, so long as the clause severed does not affect the intent of the
parties. If a court should find that any provision of this agreement to be invalid or unenforceable,
but that by limiting said provision it would become valid and enforceable, then said provision shall
be deemed to be written, construed and enforced as so limited.
