Severability and Judicial Modification. If any provision of the Award Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable under the applicable laws of any country, state, province, territory or other political subdivision or the Company elects not to enforce such restriction, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified only to the extent necessary to render that provision valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the invalid or unenforceable provision cannot be, or is not, modified, that provision shall be severed from the Award Terms and all other provisions shall remain valid and enforceable.

Modification; Severability. This Agreement may not be modified or canceled in any manner except by a writing signed by both Parties hereto.

Judicial Proceedings. Each of the Borrower and the Lender agrees to submit to personal jurisdiction in any court of competent jurisdiction in Harris County in the State of Texas, and to irrevocably waive any objection it may now or hereafter have as to the venue of any proceeding brought in such court or that such court is an inconvenient forum. Each of the Borrower and the Lender hereby waives personal service of process and consents that service of process upon it may be made, and deemed completed, in accordance with the provisions of [Section 11].

Judicial Determination. In the event the Committee for any reason considers it improper to direct any payment as specified in this [Section 10.1], it may have a court of competent jurisdiction determine to whom payments should be made, in which event all expenses incurred in obtaining such determination may be deducted from the unpaid Deferred Compensation or charged to the payee. Any such payment shall constitute a complete discharge of all liability of the Employers to such Participant under the Plan.

Severability and Modification by Court. If any term or provision of this Agreement shall, for any reason, be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such judgment shall not affect, impair, or invalidate the remainder of this Agreement, but shall be confined in its operation to the provisions of this Agreement directly involved in the controversy in which such judgment shall have been rendered. Notwithstanding the above, in the event any provision as presently set forth is determined to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Parties agree that this Agreement shall be appropriately modified by the court so that each and every provision of this Agreement is enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
