ARTICLE XXXII

SAVINGS AND SEPARABILITY CLAUSE

1. 1. The parties agree that all of the clauses of this Agreement will be severable. Any clause which may be prohibited by, invalid under, or in contravention of any operable Federal or State Law, or under which Employer or Union is required to do any act which is in contravention of any Federal or State Law, will be null and void, but in such event the remaining clauses will continue in full force and effect for the term of the Agreement, and any renewal thereof.

2. The parties agree, in good faith, to attempt to replace any such null and void clause with a clause which conforms with the law.

3. The parties further agree that if during the term of the Agreement or any renewal thereof any such null and void clause will become legal or permissible by legislative enactment, a subsequent decision of the courts or otherwise, such null and void clause will again become part of this Agreement.

4. Any disagreement under this Article will be submitted to the Grievance Procedure.
