e.In signing this Agreement, Employee acknowledges that he intends that it shall be effective as a bar to each and every one of the Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied.

Employee acknowledges and agrees that the releases contained herein are an essential and material term of this Agreement and without such releases the Company would not have agreed to this Agreement. Employee further agrees that in the event he brings his own Claim in which he seeks damages against the Company, or in the event Employee seeks to recover damages against the Company in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on his behalf, this Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims.
