By signing this Agreement, Executive hereby acknowledges and confirms the following: (i) Executive was, and is hereby, advised by the Company in connection with his termination to consult with an attorney of his choice prior to signing this Agreement and to have such attorney explain to Executive the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the terms relating to Executive’s release of claims arising under ADEA, and Executive has in fact consulted with an attorney; (ii) Executive was given a period of not fewer than 21 days to consider the terms of this Agreement and to consult with an attorney of his choosing with respect thereto; (iii) Executive knowingly and voluntarily accepts the terms of this Agreement; (iv) the payments and benefits provided to Executive in consideration of this release are in addition to any amounts otherwise owed to Executive; and (v) this Agreement is written in a manner designed to be understood by Executive and he understands it. Executive also understands that he has seven days following the date on which he signs this Agreement within which to revoke the release contained in this paragraph, by providing the Company a written notice of his revocation of the release and waiver contained in this paragraph.
Waivers and Releases Each of the Guarantors hereby waives notice of, and consents to, any extension of time of payment, renewals, releases of collateral, delays in obtaining or realizing upon or failures to obtain, perfect, or maintain perfection of, or realize upon collateral or other indulgence from time to time granted by any of the Lenders, the Arranging Agents or the Administrative Agent in respect of this Agreement, the Revolving Notes or any other Loan Document. Each of the Guarantors hereby releases the Borrower from all, and agrees not to assert or enforce (whether by or in a legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise), any "claims" (as defined in 11 U.S.C. ss. 101(4)), whether arising under Applicable Law or otherwise, to which such Guarantors are or would be entitled by virtue of their obligations hereunder, any payment made pursuant hereto or the exercise by the Lenders, the Arranging Agents or the Administrative Agent of their rights with respect to any collateral, including any such claims to which such Guarantors may be entitled as a result of any right of subrogation, exoneration or reimbursement. To the extent not released by such Guarantors under this Article 3, each of the Guarantors agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation, exoneration, reimbursement or contribution in respect of any Obligations guaranteed hereby. With respect to this Agreement and the Revolving Notes, each of the Guarantors hereby waives presentment, protest, demand of payment, notice of dishonor and all other notices and demands whatsoever. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arranging Agents and the Lenders, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 9.2 hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Obligations as provided in Section 9.2 hereof, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each of the Guarantors for purposes of this guarantee. The Obligations of the Guarantors under this Article 3 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any holder of any of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Lenders, the Arranging Agents and the Administrative Agents on demand for reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Lenders, the Arranging Agents, or the Administrative Agent in connection with such rescission or restoration. Each Guarantor further agrees with the Borrower for the benefit of each of its creditors (including, without limitation, the Credit Parties) that any payment referred to in Article 3 by a Guarantor shall constitute a contribution of capital by such Guarantor to the Borrower (or an investment in the equity capital of the Borrower by such Guarantor).
Prohibition on Press Releases and Public Announcements The Company shall not issue press releases or engage in any other publicity, without the Representative’s prior written consent, for a period ending at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the first (1st) Business Day following the forty-fifth (45th) day after the Closing Date, other than normal and customary releases issued in the ordinary course of the Company’s business.
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.
General Release and Waiver of Claims (a) In consideration for the benefits provided to Former Director under the Separation Agreement (the “Consideration”), Former Director hereby releases and forever discharges and holds the Company, subsidiaries of the Company, affiliates of the Company and each officer, director, employee, partner (general and limited), equity holder, member, manager, agent, subsidiary, affiliate, successor and assign and insurer of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Releasees”) harmless from all claims or suits, of any nature whatsoever (whether known or unknown), being directly or indirectly related to Former Director’s service with the Company or the termination thereof, including, but not limited to, any claims for notice, pay in lieu of notice, wrongful dismissal, discrimination, harassment, severance pay, bonus, incentive compensation, interest, any claims relating to Former Director’s service as with the Company, through the date hereof.
(b) This release includes, but is not limited to, contract and tort claims, claims arising out of any legal restriction on the Company’s right to terminate its employees and claims or rights under federal, state, and local laws prohibiting employment discrimination, including, but not limited to, claims or rights under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1866, the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Equal Pay Act; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), including the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990; the Americans with Disabilities Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act; the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, and any other federal, state, or local law (statutory or decisional), regulation or ordinance (if and to the extent applicable and as the same may be amended from time to time), or under any public policy, contract or tort, or under common law; or arising under any policies, practices or procedures of the Releasees; or any claim for wrongful discharge, breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress, defamation; or any claim for costs, fees, or other expenses (including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters), which arose through the date Former Director executes this Agreement.
(c) Former Director acknowledges that the consideration given for this Agreement is in addition to anything of value to which Former Director was already entitled.
(d) Former Director acknowledges that because this Agreement contains a general release of all claims including under the ADEA, and is an important legal document, he has been advised to consult with legal counsel of his own choosing. Former Director may take up to twenty-one (21) days to decide whether to execute this Agreement, and he may revoke his signature by delivering or mailing a signed notice of revocation to the Company at its corporate offices within seven (7) days after executing it.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement does not release (i) claims which cannot be lawfully released, (ii) Former Director’s rights of indemnification and directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage, if any, to which he is entitled with regard to his service as a director of the Company and (iii) claims with respect to the breach of any covenant to be performed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other claims arising from actions or omissions occurring after the date of this Agreement. Further, the release contained herein does not, and shall not be construed to, release or limit the scope of any existing obligation of the Company with respect to payments to be made under Section 2 of the Separation Agreement.
(f) Former Director acknowledges that there is a risk that after signing this Agreement he may discover losses or claims that are released under this Agreement, but that are presently unknown to him. Former Director assumes this risk and understands that this Agreement shall apply to any such losses and claims. Former Director understands that this Agreement includes a full and final release covering all known and unknown, suspected or unsuspected injuries, debts, claims or damages which have arisen or may have arisen from any matters, acts, omissions or dealings released herein. Former Director acknowledges that by accepting the Consideration, he assumes and waives the risks that the facts and the law may be other than as he believes.
Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:
(a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;
(b) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and
(c) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.
RELEASES AND WAIVERS Each of the releases and waivers enumerated in this Article 5 shall become effective only upon the Closing of the contribution and exchange of the Participating Entity Interests pursuant to Articles 1 and 2 herein.
