Executive acknowledges that he has been advised to consult with legal counsel and that they are familiar with the principle that a general release does not extend to claims that the releaser does not know or suspect to exist in his/her favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him/her, must have materially affected his settlement with the releasee. Executive, being aware of said principle, agrees to expressly waive any rights he may have to that effect, as well as under any other statute or common law principles of similar effect. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;"><font style="text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;padding-right:48px;">4.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;text-decoration:underline;">Acknowledgment of Waiver of Claims under ADEA</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">.

Executive agrees that this waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise under the ADEA after the Effective Date of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges that the consideration given for this waiver and release is in addition to anything of value to which Executive was already entitled. Executive further acknowledges that he has been advised by this writing that: (i) he should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement; (ii) he has 21 days within which to consider this Agreement; (iii) he has 7 </font></div><div><br></div><div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div></div><div><br></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;text-align:justify;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">days following his execution of this Agreement to revoke this Agreement; (iv) this Agreement shall not be effective until after the revocation period has expired; and (v) nothing in this Agreement prevents or precludes Executive from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of this waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties, or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized by federal law. In the event Executive signs this Agreement and returns it to the Company in less than the 21-day period identified above, Executive hereby acknowledges that he has freely and voluntarily chosen to waive the time period allotted for considering this Agreement. Executive acknowledges and understands that revocation must be accomplished by a written notification to the Company that is received prior to the Effective Date. The parties agree that changes, whether material or immaterial, do not restart the running of the 21-day period. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;"><font style="text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;padding-right:48px;">5.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;text-decoration:underline;">No Pending or Future Lawsuits</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">. Executive represents that he has no lawsuits, claims, or actions pending in his name, or on behalf of any other person or entity, against the Company or any of the other Releasees.

Executive agrees both to immediately notify the Company upon receipt of any such subpoena or court order, and to furnish, within 3 business days of its receipt, a copy of such subpoena or other court order.

Executive understands that nothing in this Agreement shall in any way limit or prohibit Executive from engaging in any Protected Activity. For purposes of this Agreement, &#8220;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Protected Activity</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">&#8221; shall mean filing a charge, complaint, or report with, or otherwise communicating, cooperating, or participating in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by, any federal, state or local government agency or commission, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and the National Labor Relations Board (&#8220;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Government Agencies</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">&#8221;). Executive understands that in connection with such Protected Activity, Executive is permitted to disclose documents or other information as permitted by law, and without giving notice to, or receiving authorization from, the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive agrees to take all reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of any information that may constitute Company confidential information under any agreements relating to proprietary rights between the Company and Executive (a &#8220;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Confidentiality Agreement</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">&#8221;) to any parties other than the Government Agencies. Executive further understands that &#8220;Protected Activity&#8221; does not include the disclosure of any Company attorney-client privileged communications. Any language in a Confidentiality Agreement regarding Executive&#8217;s right to engage in Protected Activity that conflicts with, or is contrary to, this paragraph is superseded by this Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive is notified that an individual will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (i) is made in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official (directly or indirectly) or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if (and only if) such filing is made under seal. In addition, an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the individual&#8217;s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;"><font style="text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;padding-right:48px;">8.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;text-decoration:underline;">Entire Agreement</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">.
