Severability; Reformation. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under any applicable Law or rule, the validity, legality and enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement will not be affected or impaired thereby. If any provision of this Agreement is found invalid, illegal or unenforceable because it is too broad in scope, too lengthy in duration or violates any Law or regulation, it shall be reformed by limiting its scope, limiting its duration or construing it to avoid such violation (as the case may be) while giving the greatest effect to the intent of the parties as is legally permissible.

Reformation and Severability. Employee and Company intend and agree that if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the scope of any provision of this Agreement is too broad to be enforced as written, the court should reform such provisions to such narrower scope as it determines to be enforceable. Employee and Company further agree that if any provision of this Agreement is determined to be unenforceable for any reason, and such provision cannot be reformed by the court as anticipated above, such provision shall be deemed separate and severable and the unenforceability of any such provisions shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any of the remaining provisions hereof.

Severability and Reformation. Except as provided in the last sentence of this Section, the covenants in each section of this Agreement are independent of any other provisions of this Agreement, each term in this Agreement constitutes a separate covenant between the parties, and each term is fully severable from any other term. You and the Company agree if any particular paragraphs, subparagraphs, phrases, words or other portions of this Agreement are determined by an appropriate court to be invalid or unenforceable as written, they shall be modified as necessary to comport with the reasonable intent and expectations of the parties and in favor of providing reasonable protection to all of the Company’s legitimate business interests, and such modification shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Agreement, or if they cannot be modified to be made valid or enforceable, then they shall be severed from this Agreement, and all remaining terms and provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should any portion of Section 8 be determined by an appropriate court to be invalid or unenforceable, and such Section or any portion thereof cannot be modified in a manner that provides reasonable protection to all of the Company’s legitimate business interests, then rather than such Section or any portion thereof being severed from this Agreement, this Agreement in its entirety shall be null and void and you shall not be entitled to the Option or underlying shares or other benefits set forth herein.

Severability and Reformation. If any provision of this Section 19 is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed to be severed from the Award Agreement and such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision of the Award Agreement, all of which shall remain valid and enforceable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the covenants contained in this Section 19 are unenforceable because they are overbroad in some respect, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, the court should sever, revise or reform any aspect of this Section 19 so as to make the scope of such Section 19 as broad as reasonable under applicable law and enforce this Section 19 as so modified. Without limiting the foregoing, if a court, government agency or other body of competent jurisdiction establishes or the Corporation otherwise determines that the covenants contained in this Award Agreement are unenforceable and/or in violation of applicable rules, the Corporation reserves the right to unilaterally amend the Award Agreement so as to comply with applicable rules.

ARTICLE # SEVERABILITY/REFORMATION

Reformation. If the FCC should # change its rules in a manner that would adversely affect the enforceability of this Agreement, # directly or indirectly reject or take action to challenge the enforceability of this Agreement, or # take any other steps whatsoever, on its own initiative or by petition from a third party, to directly or indirectly challenge this Agreement or any provision hereof, then the parties hereto shall promptly negotiate in good faith to attempt to reform and amend this Agreement so as to eliminate or amend to make unobjectionable any portion that is the subject of any FCC action, provided, that neither party shall be obligated to reform or amend this Agreement under the foregoing circumstances if any such amendment or modification, in the reasonable judgment of such party, would not provide to or afford such party substantially the same rights, duties and obligations such party has under this Agreement as of the date hereof.

Reformation. If the FCC determines that this Agreement is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of the FCC Laws or if any governmental body alters the permissibility of this Agreement subsequent to the date of this Agreement under the requirements of law, then the Parties agree to use reasonable best efforts to modify this Agreement as necessary to cause this Agreement (as modified) to comply with such new requirements of law and to preserve to the extent possible the economic arrangements and management arrangement set forth in this Agreement.

Severability. If one or more provisions of the Notice or this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, then such provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible given the intent of the parties hereto. If such clause or provision cannot be so enforced, then # such provision shall be excluded from the Notice or this Agreement, as applicable, # the balance of the Notice and this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and # the balance of the Notice and this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with their terms.

Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held void, voidable, invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, no other provision of this Agreement shall be affected as a result thereof, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be valid and remain in full force and effect as if such void, voidable, invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had been omitted.

Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, # the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and # the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, an L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.
