SECTION 10.11 Release. Effective immediately and automatically upon the Closing, except with respect to a claim arising out of this Agreement, each Blocker Owner, on behalf of itself, its Affiliates (including the general partner of such Blocker Owner), and each of their respective Agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasors”), hereby irrevocably, unconditionally, completely and fully releases, waives, remises and forever discharges the Blockers, Foresight, each of their respective Affiliates and each of their respective Agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”) of and from any and all obligations, Losses and Claims (in each case, of any kind or nature whatsoever) alleged or that could have been alleged in any jurisdiction, in any way arising out of, connected with, based upon or relating to the Blocker Reorganization, Splitter and/or any Blocker (including any claim or right any Releasor might have under the Organizational Documents of any Blocker), whether in law, statute or in equity, whether previously asserted or otherwise, and whether known or unknown, present or contingent, which

any Releasor may now or hereafter have, own or claim to have against any of the Releasees by reason of any act, conduct, fact or circumstance occurring on any date from the beginning of time through the Closing Date (collectively, the “Released Claims”); provided that the Released Claims shall not include any claims a Blocker Owner may have with respect to this Agreement. Each Blocker Owner (i) shall cause each of the other Releasors to be bound by and comply with the foregoing release, and (ii) shall not, and shall cause the other Releasors not to, xxx, assert any Claim in any manner, or otherwise participate in any action against, any of the Releasees based upon any of the Released Claims. For the avoidance of doubt, the release set forth in this Section 10.11 is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without such release, none of Foresight and the Merger Corps would have entered into this Agreement.
