law, such provision shall be ineffective solely to the extent of such prohibition or
invalidity, and this shall not invalidate the remainder of such provision or any other
provision of this License.

no way impair the right of Licensor to enforce that provision for any subsequent breach
thereof.

PIPE LINE there under. In case Licensee shall fail to restore Licensor's rail corridor
within Thirty (30), days after the effective date of termination, Licensor may proceed with
such work at the expense of Licensee. No termination hereof shall release Licensee
