19.3
Should a provision of these Terms and Conditions be or become invalid, contain an invalid deadline provision or a gap, the legal validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. Insofar as the invalidity does not result from a violation of Sec. 305 et seqq. German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch, BGB), the invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that comes as close as possible to the economic intentions of the Parties. The same applies in the event of a gap. In the event of an invalid term, the legally permissible term shall apply.
