13. MISCELLANEOUS. The invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement as against any one or more
parties hereto, shall not impair or effect the other provisions hereof or the enforceability of said term or provision against the other parties hereto, and notwithstanding any such invalidity or unenforceability, each term or provision hereof shall
remain in full force and effect to the full extent consistent with law.
