Each party specifically represents that it or he has had a full and fair opportunity to consult with counsel of its or his own choosing concerning the agreements, representations, and declarations set forth in this Agreement. Each party understands and agrees that by signing this Agreement it or he is giving up its or his right to bring any legal claim against the other party concerning, directly or indirectly, the Executive’s employment relationship with the Company, including the Executive’s separation from employment. Each party agrees that this legal release is intended to be interpreted in the broadest possible manner in favor of the other party, to include all actual or potential legal claims that one party may have against the other, except as specifically provided otherwise in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this release shall not waive or in any way limit or otherwise affect the Executive’s rights, if any, to indemnification and/or defense in connection with any claim that may be asserted against the Executive as a consequence of his employment with the Executive, whether such rights arise under the Company’s articles of incorporation, bylaws, insurance contracts or otherwise.

(b) The Company, on behalf of itself and its successors, predecessors, assigns, subsidiaries, principals, directors, officers, and insurers (the “Company Releasors”), hereby do remise, release and forever discharge, and covenant not to xxx or take any steps to pursue or further any Legal Proceeding against any of the Other Parties or their respective heirs, estates, trustees, beneficiaries, successors, predecessors, assigns, subsidiaries, principals, directors and officers (in their capacity as such), and insurers (the “Stockholder Releasees”) from and in respect of any and all claims and causes of action, whether based on any federal, state or foreign law or right of action, direct, indirect or representative in nature, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, that all or any of the Company Releasors have, had, or may have against the Stockholder Releasees, or any of them, of any kind, nature or type whatsoever, from the beginning of time to the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing release shall not release any rights or duties under this Agreement or any claims or causes of action that the Company Releasors may have for the breach or enforcement of any provision of this Agreement.

(d) Each Party waives any and all rights (to the extent permitted by state law, federal law, principles of common law or any other law) that may have the effect of limiting the releases in this Section 5. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party acknowledges that there is a risk that the damages and costs that it believes it has suffered or will suffer may turn out to be other than or greater than those now known, suspected or believed to be true. Facts on which each Party has been relying in entering into this Agreement may later turn out to be other than or different from those now known, suspected or believed to be true. Each Party acknowledges that in entering into this Agreement, it has expressed that it agrees to accept the risk of any such possible unknown damages, claims, facts, demands, actions and causes of action. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the releases and covenants provided for in this Section 5 are binding, unconditional and final as of the date hereof.

  • Release of Unknown Claims Employee expressly waives and relinquishes all rights and benefits afforded by any statute (including, but not limited to, Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California and analogous laws of other states), which limits the effect of a release with respect to unknown claims. Employee does so understanding and acknowledging the significance of the release of unknown claims and the waiver of statutory protection against a release of unknown claims (including, but not limited to, Section 1542). Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California states as follows: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.” Thus, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1542 or of any similar statute, and for the purpose of implementing a full and complete release and discharge of the Company Releasees, Employee expressly acknowledges that this Agreement is intended to include in its effect, without limitation, all Claims which are known and all Claims which Employee does not know or suspect to exist in Employee’s favor at the time of execution of this Agreement and that this Agreement contemplates the extinguishment of all such Claims. Employee acknowledges that he/she might hereafter discover facts different from, or in addition to, those Employee now knows or believes to be true with respect to a Claim or Claims released herein, and they expressly agree to assume the risk of possible discovery of additional or different facts, and agree that this Agreement shall be and remain effective, in all respects, regardless of such additional or different discovered facts.

  • Separation Agreement and General Release The Company’s obligation to make the Severance Payment is conditioned on Executive or Executive’s legal representatives executing a separation agreement and general release of claims related to or arising from Executive’s employment with the Company or the termination of employment against the Company and its affiliates (and their respective officers and directors) in a form reasonably determined by the Company, which shall be provided by the Company to Executive within five days following the Date of Termination; provided that, if Executive should fail to execute (or revokes) such release within 45 days following the Date of Termination, the Company shall not have any obligation to provide the Severance Payment. If Executive executes the release within such 45-day period and does not revoke the release within seven days following the execution of the release, the Severance Payment will be made in accordance with Section 4(a)(ii).

  • Release of Claims by Holders Each Holder hereby releases the Representative for all claims arising from the Representative’s performance of its services pursuant to this Revenue Sharing Agreement, except and to the extent that a Holder can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that such act or omission constituted gross negligence or intentional misconduct.

  • Release of Claims Agreement The receipt of any severance payments or benefits pursuant to this Agreement is subject to Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims in a form mutually acceptable to the Company and Executive (the “Release”), which must become effective no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s termination of employment (the “Release Deadline”), and if not, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under this Agreement. To become effective, the Release must be executed by Executive and any revocation periods (as required by statute, regulation, or otherwise) must have expired without Executive having revoked the Release. In addition, in no event will severance payments or benefits be paid or provided until the Release actually becomes effective. If the termination of employment occurs at a time during the calendar year where the Release Deadline could occur in the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive’s termination of employment occurs, then any severance payments or benefits under this Agreement that would be considered Deferred Payments (as defined in Section 4(c)(i)) will be paid on the first payroll date to occur during the calendar year following the calendar year in which such termination occurs, or such later time as required by (i) the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit as set forth in Section 3, (ii) the date the Release becomes effective, or (iii) Section 4(c)(ii); provided that the first payment shall include all amounts that would have been paid to Executive if payment had commenced on the date of Executive’s termination of employment.
