ADEA Release You acknowledge that you are knowingly and voluntarily waiving and releasing any rights you have under the ADEA, and that the consideration given for the waiver and releases you have given in this Agreement is in addition to anything of value to which you were already entitled. You further acknowledge that you have been advised, as required by the ADEA, that: (a) your waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims that arise after the date you sign this Agreement; (b) you should consult with an attorney prior to signing this Agreement (although you may choose voluntarily not to do so); (c) you have twenty-one (21) days to consider this Agreement (although you may choose voluntarily to sign it sooner); (d) you have seven (7) days following the date you sign this Agreement to revoke this Agreement (in a written revocation sent to me); and (e) this Agreement will not be effective until the date upon which the revocation period has expired, which will be the eighth day after you sign this Agreement provided that you do not revoke it (the “Effective Date”).
Pre-Release Subject to the further terms and provisions of this Section 2.10, the Depositary, its Affiliates and their agents, on their own behalf, may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company and its Affiliates and in ADSs. In its capacity as Depositary, the Depositary may (i) issue ADSs prior to the receipt of Shares (each such transaction a "Pre-Release Transaction") as provided below and (ii) Deliver Shares upon the receipt and cancellation of ADSs that were issued in a Pre-Release Transaction, but for which Shares may not yet have been received. The Depositary may receive ADSs in lieu of Shares under (i) above and receive Shares in lieu of ADSs under (ii) above. Each such Pre-Release Transaction will be (a) subject to a written agreement whereby the person or entity (the "Applicant") to whom ADSs or Shares are to be Delivered (1) represents that at the time of the Pre-Release Transaction the Applicant or its customer owns the Shares or ADSs that are to be Delivered by the Applicant under such Pre-Release Transaction, (2) agrees to indicate the Depositary as owner of such Shares or ADSs in its records and to hold such Shares or ADSs in trust for the Depositary until such Shares or ADSs are Delivered to the Depositary or the Custodian, (3) unconditionally guarantees to deliver to the Depositary or the Custodian, as applicable, such Shares or ADSs, and (4) agrees to any additional restrictions or requirements that the Depositary deems appropriate, (b) at all times fully collateralized with cash, United States government securities or such other collateral as the Depositary deems appropriate, (c) terminable by the Depositary on not more than five (5) Business Days' notice and (d) subject to such further indemnities and credit regulations as the Depositary deems appropriate. The Depositary will normally limit the number of ADSs and Shares involved in such Pre-Release Transactions at any one time to thirty percent (30%) of the ADSs outstanding (without giving effect to ADSs outstanding under (i) above), provided, however, that the Depositary reserves the right to disregard such limit from time to time as it deems appropriate. The Depositary may also set limits with respect to the number of ADSs and Shares involved in Pre-Release Transactions with any one person on a case by case basis as it deems appropriate. The Depositary may retain for its own account any compensation received by it in conjunction with the foregoing. Collateral provided pursuant to (b) above, but not the earnings thereon, shall be held for the benefit of the Holders (other than the Applicant).
Release of Claims Agreement The receipt of any severance payments or benefits pursuant to this Agreement is subject to Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims in a form mutually acceptable to the Company and Executive (the “Release”), which must become effective no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s termination of employment (the “Release Deadline”), and if not, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under this Agreement. To become effective, the Release must be executed by Executive and any revocation periods (as required by statute, regulation, or otherwise) must have expired without Executive having revoked the Release. In addition, in no event will severance payments or benefits be paid or provided until the Release actually becomes effective. If the termination of employment occurs at a time during the calendar year where the Release Deadline could occur in the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive’s termination of employment occurs, then any severance payments or benefits under this Agreement that would be considered Deferred Payments (as defined in Section 4(c)(i)) will be paid on the first payroll date to occur during the calendar year following the calendar year in which such termination occurs, or such later time as required by (i) the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit as set forth in Section 3, (ii) the date the Release becomes effective, or (iii) Section 4(c)(ii); provided that the first payment shall include all amounts that would have been paid to Executive if payment had commenced on the date of Executive’s termination of employment.
Specific Release of ADEA Claims In further consideration of the payments and benefits provided to Executive under the Employment Agreement, Executive, on his behalf and on behalf of the Executive Releasors, hereby unconditionally releases and forever discharges the Company Releasees from any and all Claims that the Executive or any Executive Releasor may have as of the date the Executive signs this Agreement arising under the Federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, and the applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (“ADEA”). By signing this Agreement, Executive hereby acknowledges and confirms the following: (i) Executive was advised by the Company in connection with his termination to consult with an attorney of his choice prior to signing this Agreement and to have such attorney explain to Executive the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the terms relating to Executive’s release of claims arising under ADEA, and Executive has in fact consulted with an attorney or chosen not to do so; (ii) Executive was given a period of 21 days following his termination date to consider the terms of this Agreement and to consult with an attorney of his choosing with respect thereto; and (iii) Executive knowingly and voluntarily accepts the terms of this Agreement. Executive also understands that he has seven (7) days following the date on which he signs this Agreement within which to revoke the release contained in this paragraph, by providing the Company a written notice of his revocation of the release and waiver contained in this paragraph.
Termination and Release (i) This Guaranty shall automatically terminate on the Termination Date.

The Executive, ON BEHALF OF HIMSELF AND THE EXECUTIVE PARTIES, hereby represents and warrants that no other person or entity has initiated or, to the extent within his control, will initiate any such proceeding on his or their behalf.
Separation Agreement and Release of Claims The Executive’s receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon the Executive’s Qualifying Termination under Section 3 is subject to the Executive signing and not revoking the Company’s then-standard separation agreement and release of claims (which may include an agreement not to disparage any member of the Company Group, non-solicit provisions, an agreement to assist in any litigation matters, and other standard terms and conditions) (the “Release” and that requirement, the “Release Requirement”), which must become effective and irrevocable no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the Executive’s Qualifying Termination (the “Release Deadline”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, the Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under Section 3.
Release of Claims In return for the benefits conferred under the Employment Agreement and this Agreement (which Employee acknowledges Company has no legal obligation to provide if Employee does not enter into this Agreement), Employee, on behalf of Employee and Employee's heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, hereby releases and forever discharges Company and its past, present and future affiliates, future parent companies, subsidiaries, predecessors, successors and assigns, and each of their past, present and future shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents and insurers, from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, disputes, liabilities or damages, of any kind, which may now exist or hereafter may be discovered, specifically including, but not limited to, any and all claims, disputes, actions, causes of action, liabilities or damages, arising from or relating to Employee's employment with Company, or the termination of such employment, except for any claim for payment or performance pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. This release includes, but is not limited to, any claims that Employee might have for reemployment or reinstatement or for additional compensation or benefits and applies to claims that Employee might have under either federal, state or local law dealing with employment, contract, tort, wage and hour, or civil rights matters, including, but not limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, similar state laws, and any regulations under such laws. This release shall not affect any accrued rights Employee may have under any medical insurance, workers compensation or retirement plan because of Employee's prior employment with Company. EMPLOYEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THROUGH THIS RELEASE EMPLOYEE IS GIVING UP ALL RIGHTS AND CLAIMS OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE WHATSOEVER, KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, CONTINGENT OR LIQUIDATED, THAT EMPLOYEE MAY HAVE AGAINST COMPANY AND THE OTHER PERSONS NAMED ABOVE, EXCEPT FOR THE RIGHTS SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED ABOVE.
Seller Release Each Seller, on such Seller’s behalf and on behalf of such Seller’s respective Affiliates, legal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Releasing Parties”), hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably releases and forever discharges the Company and its respective present and former subsidiaries, successors and assigns, and their respective directors, officers, managers, members, agents and employees (collectively, the “Company Released Parties”) from any and all Actions, Liabilities, Losses, costs, reimbursements, damages (whether for compensatory, special, incidental or punitive damages, equitable relief or otherwise), demands, recoveries, indemnities and obligations of any kind, in law, at equity or otherwise, whether known or unknown, whether concealed or hidden, whether disclosed or undisclosed, whether contingent or absolute, whether liquidated or unliquidated, whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, whether foreseen or unforeseen, whether anticipated or unanticipated, whether suspected or unsuspected and whether arising by operation of law or otherwise, including with respect to conduct that is negligent, grossly negligent, willful, intentional, with or without malice or a breach of any duty, Law or rule, which such Seller Releasing Parties ever have had, or ever in the future may have against the Company Released Parties and which are based on acts, events or omissions occurring up to and including the Closing Date (the “Released Claims”); provided, that the foregoing release shall not release, impair or diminish, and the term “Released Claims” shall not include, in any respect, the Sellers’ rights under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. Each Seller, on behalf of such Seller and the Seller Releasing Parties, agrees not to, and agrees to cause such Seller’s respective Affiliates not to, whether in such Seller’s own capacity, as successor, by reason of assignment or otherwise, assert, commence, join in, or assist or encourage any third party in asserting, any Released Claim against any Company Released Party. Each Seller, on behalf of such Seller and the Seller Releasing Parties, hereby waives any rights that such Seller or any Seller Releasing Party may have under any Law which provides that a general release does not extend to claims which the releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in the releasing party’s favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by such the releasing party may have materially affected such the releasing party’s settlement. Each Seller acknowledges that the foregoing waiver was separately bargained for and is a key element of this Agreement.
