Each of the Parties further represents and warrants that it has not relied upon any other Party in deciding to enter into the Agreement and has instead made its own independent analysis and decision to enter into the Agreement. Each of the Parties agrees and acknowledges that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no other Party, in any capacity, has warranted or otherwise made any representations concerning any Released Claim (including any representation or warranty concerning the existence, non-existence, validity or invalidity of any Released Claim). (d) Each Party agrees that this Agreement, following the Settlement Effective Date, may be pleaded as a full and complete defense to, and may be used as a basis for an injunction against, any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of this Agreement by it or any other Releasing Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the Parties agrees that if any release contained in this Section 2.3 shall be unenforceable against any Releasing Party, and such Releasing Party institutes or files any cause of action against any Released Party, then the releases contained in this Section 2.3 shall not be effective in preventing any such Released Party from raising any defenses, objections, set-offs, recoupments or counterclaims to such cause of action against such Releasing Party, in each case solely to the extent to offset any such cause of action. (e) Each Party expressly agrees that this Agreement shall apply to all unknown and any unanticipated injuries and damages of any Releasing Party, as well as those now known by any Releasing Party, arising out of, relating to or in connection with, in whole or in part, the actions or omissions of any Released Parties prior to the Settlement Effective Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing each Party expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights such Party may have under any federal, state or local statute, rule, regulation or principle of common law or equity (including, without limitation, any such statute, rule, regulation or principle that is equivalent or comparable to California Civil Code § 1542) which provides that a release does not extend to Claims which the claimant does not know or suspect to exist in its favor at the time of providing the release or which may in any way limit the effect or scope of the release with respect to Released Claims which such Party did not know or suspect to exist in such Party’s favor at the time of providing the release, which in each case if known by it may have materially affected its settlement with any Released Party. Each of the Parties expressly acknowledges that the releases and covenants not to xxx contained in this Agreement shall be deemed a releaseare effective regardless of whether those released matters or Released Claims are presently known or unknown, waiver suspected or modifications unsuspected, or foreseen or unforeseen. (f) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and except with respect to the exclusion of certain Claims pursuant to this Agreement, each Party warrants, covenants and agrees (on behalf of itself and all of its Related Persons) that from and after the Settlement Effective Date, it will not xxx or otherwise commence, maintain, prosecute or voluntarily aid any legal action or other proceeding against any of the Released Parties with respect to any of the Released Claims in any administrative or judicial forum of any Parties’ jurisdiction. Each Party also agrees not to give notice of or file any complaint against any Released Party with, any governmental or non-governmental Authority, based on, or which involves, any Claim or Damages that arises from any Released Claim. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.3 is not intended to, and shall not be construed to, prevent any Party from enforcing its rights to enforce under this Agreement or Agreement, the Xxxxxxx Field PSARSA, the Plan and the other definitive documentation entered into in connection with any of the foregoing.
