  1. The Parties acknowledge that a potential dispute has arisen between Licensor and Licensee in that Licensor has notified Licensee of certain products and/or services manufactured, used, sold, transferred and/or marketed by or for Licensee that may infringe one or more claims of the Licensed Patents. These contentions, including provisional patent rights of Licensor, are hereinafter referred to as the "Dispute." It is the desire and intention of the Parties to avoid the risks and expenses of litigation related to the Dispute, to avoid further disputes between themselves, including disputes related to the Licensed Patents, and to permit Licensee to make, use, import, offer to sell and sell the Licensed Products and/or Licensed Services that may incorporate technology covered by one or more of the Licensed Patents solely pursuant to Licensee's payment of the Initial License Fee. Pursuant to the Licensee's payment of the Initial License Fee, the Parties wish to settle any rights, claims, counterclaims, defenses, and/or demands between them which exist between them as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, relating to the subject matter of the Dispute.
  2. For valuable consideration in the form of the Initial License Fee, and solely upon Licensee's payment in full of the Initial License Fee, Licensor, for itself and for its divisions, predecessors, successors, and assigns, and for all of its present and past officers, directors, shareholders, employees, shall release and discharge Licensee and its divisions, predecessors, successors and assigns and all of its present and past officers, directors, shareholders, employees, and each of them (hereinafter the "Licensee Released Parties"), from any and all claims, counterclaims, demands, suits, damages, indebtedness, liabilities, actions and causes of action, whether known or unknown, whether legal, equitable or administrative, that were asserted, or are or may be based in whole or in part on, or do or may arise out of, or may be related to or based on the Licensed Patents or the Dispute or the facts, events, circumstances, actions and transactions that are alleged in the Dispute (hereinafter, the "Released Matters"). For purposes of clarity, Licensor does not release and/or discharge any of the Licensee Released Parties from the Released Matters until such date that payment in full for the Initial License Fee is confirmed by the Parties and until such time Licensor retains the right to any claims, counterclaims, demands, suits, damages, indebtedness, liabilities, actions and causes of action referenced herein.
  3. For valuable consideration, receipt of which is acknowledged, Licensee, for itself and for its divisions, predecessors, successors, and assigns, and for all of its present and past officers, directors, shareholders, employees, attorneys and legal representatives, hereby releases, acquits

  1. In furtherance of the intentions set forth herein, each of the Parties acknowledges that it is familiar with Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California which provides as follows:
  2. "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor."

    Each of the Parties waives and relinquishes any right or benefit which it has or may have under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any similar provision of the statutory or nonstatutory law of any other jurisdiction to the full extent that it may lawfully waive all such rights and benefits pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the aforementioned, Licensor's waiver and relinquishment pursuant to this Section 4.4 is only effective upon Licensee's payment in full for the Initial License Fee as confirmed by the Parties. As applicable to the Parties in connection with such waiver and relinquishment, each of the Parties acknowledges that it is aware that it or its attorneys or accountants may hereafter discover claims or facts in addition to or different from those which it now knows or believes to exist with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement or the other Party hereto, but that it is its intention hereby fully, finally and forever to settle and release all of the Released Matters, Disputes and differences known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which now exist, may exist or heretofore have existed between MMR and Licensee, except as otherwise expressly provided. As applicable, in furtherance of this intention, the releases herein given shall be and remain in effect as full and complete mutual releases notwithstanding the discovery or existence of any such additional or different claim or fact.

  3. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the releases set forth above are not intended to, and do not in any way, release the Parties from their obligations under this Agreement or affect the Parties' respective rights under this Agreement, and are contingent upon the due performance by the Parties of their respective obligations hereunder. In the event of a material breach by Licensee of any of its covenants, representations or warranties under this Agreement, including without limitation a breach of any payment obligations of the Initial License Fee, Licensor shall have the right to exercise any and all remedies available to it at law or in equity, including any remedies available as of the date hereof.
