this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative
of the party against whom enforcement of a waiver is sought. The waiver of any right or remedy
with respect to any occurrence or event shall not be deemed a waiver of any right or remedy with
respect to any other occurrence or event, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.
5.16. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such determination shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or of the
offending provision in any other circumstance, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect.

this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative
of the party against whom enforcement of a waiver is sought. The waiver of any right or remedy
with respect to any occurrence or event shall not be deemed a waiver of any right or remedy with

competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such determination shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or of the

this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative
of the party against whom enforcement of a waiver is sought. The waiver of any right or remedy
with respect to any occurrence or event shall not be deemed a waiver of any right or remedy with
respect to any other occurrence or event, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.
5.16. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such determination shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or of the
