anything to the contrary contained in Sections 3 or 4 of the Consulting Agreement or Section 5 of
the Supplement to Consulting Agreement.
3. Release by the Consultant. The Consultant, for himself and for his
representatives, agents, estate, heirs, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasors”),

and any one or more of the Releasees for any reason whatsoever in law or in equity, under federal,
state or other law, whether the same be upon statutory claim, contract, tort or other basis
relating to payments under Sections 3 or 4 of the Consulting Agreement or Section 5 of the
Supplement to Consulting Agreement. The Consultant, for himself and on behalf of all other
Releasors, further agrees not to file any claim or lawsuit seeking damages or other relief or
asserting any claims that are lawfully released in this Section 3. The Consultant, for himself and
on behalf of all other Releasors, further irrevocably and unconditionally waives all rights to

the Consultant, for himself and on behalf of the other Releasors, will indemnify and hold harmless
and cause the other Releasors to indemnify and hold harmless, the Releasors for any breach of this
Section 3.

acknowledges that he has read and understands the Amendment and executes it voluntarily and without
coercion. The Consultant further acknowledges that he is being advised herein in writing to
consult with an attorney prior to executing this Amendment, and that he has been given a period of
time to consider and execute this Amendment.
