    1. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement, as applied to either Party or any circumstance, for any reason shall be declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, unenforceable, inoperative or otherwise ineffective, then: (i) such provision shall be eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and (ii) such provision shall be reformed and rewritten so as to most closely reflect the intention of Company and LRM, such that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.
