4. In consideration of the consideration described in Section 1 above and for other good and valuable consideration, you also hereby specifically waive any and all rights or claims that you have, or may hereafter have, to reinstatement or reemployment with Westwood. Any reemployment shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of Westwood.

5. (a) You specifically and expressly hereby waive California Civil Code Section 1542.  By your signature hereto you certify that you have read the following provision of California Civil Code Section 1542:  “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

(b) You further certify that you understand and acknowledge that the significance and consequence of this waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542 is that even if you should eventually suffer additional damages arising out of the facts referred to herein, you will not be able to make any claim for those damages.  Furthermore, you acknowledge that you intend these consequences even as to claims for damages that may exist as of the date of this release but which you do not know exist, and which, if known, would materially affect your decision to execute this release, regardless of whether your lack of knowledge is the result of ignorance, oversight, error, negligence, or any other cause.

6. Pursuant to and as a part of your complete, total release and discharge of Westwood and the Westwood Released Parties, you agree, not to xxx or file a charge, complaint, grievance or demand for arbitration in any forum except to enforce this Agreement or assist or otherwise participate, except as may be required by law, in any claim, arbitration, suit, action, investigation or other proceeding of any kind which relates to any matter that involves Westwood and the Westwood Released Parties and that occurred on or before your execution of this Agreement. You represent that you have not filed or initiated any such proceedings against Westwood and the Westwood Released Parties.

7. (a) You agree that while employed by Westwood you have had access to confidential and proprietary information, including, without limitation, customer lists, financial data and trade secret information. You agree that any such confidential information you acquired while an employee of Westwood shall not be disclosed to any other person or used in a manner detrimental to Westwood’s interests. In addition, you shall return to Westwood all Westwood property and tangible confidential information in your possession including, but not limited to, keys, computers, pagers, files, agreements, documents, telephones, fax machines and credentials. You agree to cooperate with Westwood in any investigation Westwood undertakes or litigation Westwood is involved in relating to matters that occurred during your employment with Westwood.

In this regard, you specifically agree that the limitations as to period of time and geographic area, as well as all other restrictions on your activities specified herein, are reasonable and necessary for the protection of Westwood. The parties hereto agree that the remedy at law for any breach of your obligations under this Section of this Agreement would be inadequate and that Westwood shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief (without bond or undertaking) in any proceeding which may be brought to enforce any provisions of this Section.

8. You understand and agree that neither you nor anyone acting on your behalf will publish, publicize, disseminate, communicate or cause to be published, publicized, disseminated or communicated, to any entity or person whatsoever, directly or indirectly, information concerning your employment with Westwood, the existence of this Agreement or the terms described herein except to your attorneys, accountants, tax advisors or immediate family, which for purposes hereof shall include your spouse, parents, children, siblings, grandparents, grandchildren, mother-in-law and father-in-law. You agree not to make any statement or take any actions which in any way disparage or which could harm the reputation and/or goodwill of Westwood, or in any way, directly or indirectly, cause or encourage the making of such statements or the taking of such actions by anyone else. Nothing in this paragraph shall prohibit you from responding truthfully to a lawfully issued subpoena, court order, or other lawful request by any regulatory agency or government authority.
