The determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect in the same manner and to the same extent as if the invalid or unenforceable provision had not been contained in this Agreement. If any such invalidity or unenforceability of a provision of this Agreement becomes known or apparent to any of the parties, the parties shall negotiate promptly and in good faith in an attempt to make appropriate changes and adjustments to such provisions specifically and this Agreement generally to achieve as closely as possible, consistent with applicable law, the intent and spirit of such provision specifically and this Agreement generally.
