Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, then the remaining provisions of these Terms, or the application of such provisions to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable shall not be affected thereby, and each such provision of these Terms shall be valid and enforceable to the extent permitted by law. You agree to negotiate in good faith to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable provision that has the effect nearest to that of the provision being replaced.
