Severability







 


Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.4 hereof, if any term or provision of this Agreement is held invalid, unenforceable or contrary to Law, such term or provision shall be deemed to be severable from the other terms and provisions hereof, but only to the extent necessary to bring this Agreement within the requirements of Law, and the remainder of this Agreement shall be given effect as if the parties had not included the severed term herein; provided, however, that if the party that would be adversely affected by such severance demonstrates that a material inducement to its entering into this Agreement would be materially impaired, such party shall be entitled to seek an adjudication that this Agreement should be terminated on that ground.
