In order to receive amounts payable under Section 2 hereof, Executive must execute a timely and effective release of claims in the form attached hereto and marked Exhibit A (the "Release of Claims"), and no amounts will be payable under Section 2 hereof until the Release of Claims is effective. In addition, Executive must maintain ongoing compliance with all of his obligations under this Agreement and the Severance Agreement. The Release of Claims creates legally binding obligations and the Company therefore advises Executive to consult an attorney before signing it.
