Restraint of Trade - Severability Sample Clauses

The 'Restraint of Trade - Severability' clause ensures that if any part of a restraint of trade provision (such as a non-compete or non-solicitation restriction) is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remainder of the clause will still be effective. In practice, this means that if a particular restriction is too broad or otherwise unenforceable, the court can remove or modify that part without invalidating the entire agreement. This clause is important because it helps preserve the enforceability of the parties' intentions, even if some restrictions are legally problematic, thereby reducing the risk that the whole restraint of trade provision will be struck down.
