ARTICLE 32
If any of the provisions
of this Agreement
shall in any manner be held by a court or agency to be in conflict with or contravene
any federal law or statute, executive
order, State law or statute, or any rule and regulation promulgated pursuant to
one of the above, or not be approved by legislative action, such provisions
shall be considered null and void and shall not be binding on the parties
hereto; in such event, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect. In the event
that any provision of this Agreement is thus found to be invalid or rejected,
either party shall have the right to reopen negotiations on that provision
only.
