true, with respect to the matters released herein. Nevertheless, it is
your intention, through this Agreement, and with the advice of counsel,
fully and finally settle and release all such matters, and all claims
relative thereto, which do now exist, may exist, or have existed between
and among the parties hereto, including the Indemnified Parties. You
hereby acknowledge that you have been advised by your legal counsel,
understand and acknowledge the significance and consequence of this
release and of this specific waiver of Section 1542 and other such laws.
