If any provision of Sections 814.16 through 814.54 or any franchise agreement executed subject to it is held by any court or by any federal, State or county agency of competent jurisdiction to be invalid as conflicting with any federal or State law, rule or regulation now or hereafter in effect, or is held by such court or agency to be modified in any way in order to conform to the requirements of any such law, rule or regulation, such provision shall be considered a separate, distinct, and independent part of Sections 814.16 through 814.54 and such holding shall not affect the validity and enforceability of all other provisions hereof, all of which shall remain in full force and effect for the term of any franchise agreement, or renewal or renewals thereof. In the event of such determination by a court of competent jurisdiction, the grantor or grantee shall have the option to amend the parts of the franchise agreement related to the affected sections. In the event that such law, rule or regulation is subsequently repealed, rescinded, amended or otherwise changed, so that the provision hereof which had been held invalid or modified is no longer in conflict with such law, rule or regulation, said provision shall thereupon return to full force and effect and shall thereafter be binding on grantor and grantee, provided that grantor shall give grantee 60 days written notice of such change before requiring compliance with said provision or such longer period of time as may be reasonably required for grantee to comply with such provision.
