this clause 17, each of which shall be deemed to be separate warranties and representations, given without prejudice to any other warranty or representation, and deemed to be material representations inducing the Creditor to enter into this
Pledge and Cession.

	22.	Each provision in this Pledge and Cession is severable from all other provisions, notwithstanding the manner in which they may be linked together or grouped
grammatically, and if in terms of any judgment or order, any provision, phrase, sentence, paragraph or clause is found to be defective or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions, phrases, sentences, paragraphs and clauses shall
nevertheless continue to be of full force. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the aforegoing, the Parties hereto acknowledge their intention to continue to be bound by this Pledge and Cession notwithstanding that any provision may
