executors, administrators, parents, subsidiaries, and predecessor entities and, to the extent such parties are acting in a representative capacity, the creditors, representatives, agents and attorneys of any of them (individually, a “Crown Releasee” and collectively, the “Crown Releasees”), from any and all claims, counterclaims, demands, damages, proceedings, actions, causes of action, orders, obligations, contracts, agreements, debts, costs, expenses and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, contingent or actual, both at law and in equity, which such CCR Releasing Party now has, has ever had or may hereafter claim to have against the respective Crown Releasees on account of, arising out of, relating to, resulting from or in connection with the Original Purchase Agreement, all Exhibits thereto and any other agreements relating to the Original Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Original Ancillary Documents”), and including any acts, omissions, disclosure or communications related to the Original Purchase Agreement, the Original Ancillary Documents or the transactions or payments contemplated thereby (the “CCR Released Claims”); provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to release any party hereto from its obligations under this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement, the Option Agreement, the Preferred Purchase Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Revised Operating Agreement (if entered into), or any agreement among any of the parties hereto entered into subsequent to the execution this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” means, with respect to a specified Person, a Person that directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Person specified; provided, that for the purposes of this definition, “control” (including, with correlative meanings, the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control with”), as used with respect to any Person, shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.

 

Section 5.2.  Crown Party Releases.  Each of the Crown Parties, for themselves and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, on behalf of their former, current or future officers, directors, agents, representatives, managing directors, partners, managers, principals, members, parents, subsidiaries, Affiliates, employees, predecessor entities, heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of any such Person, direct or indirect equityholders and controlling persons of any such Person, and any other Person claiming (now or in the future) through or on behalf of any of such Persons (“Crown Releasing Parties”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases, acquits and forever discharges CCR and the Current Equityholders and each of their respective Affiliates, direct or indirect equityholders and controlling persons and each of their respective successors, assigns, officers, directors, managing directors, partners, managers, principals, members, employees, heirs, executors, administrators, parents, subsidiaries, and predecessor entities and, to the extent such parties are acting in a representative capacity, the creditors, representatives, agents and attorneys of any of them (individually, a “CCR Releasee” and collectively, the “CCR Releasees”), from any and all claims, counterclaims, demands, damages, proceedings, actions, causes of action, orders, obligations, contracts, agreements, debts, costs, expenses and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, contingent or actual, both at law

Section 5.3 Scope of Release and Discharge.

 

(a)      With respect to those matters that are the subject of the releases purported to be released in this Agreement, each of CCR and the Current Equityholders on behalf of the CCR Releasing Parties, and the Crown Parties on behalf of the Crown Releasing Parties, expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights and benefits afforded by California Civil Code Section 1542 and any analogous provisions of the laws of any other relevant jurisdiction (whether in the form of statute, rule, common law or otherwise), and does so understanding and acknowledging the significance of such specific waiver.  Section 1542 states as follows:

 

“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.”

 

Thus, notwithstanding such provisions, and for the purposes of implementing a full and complete release and discharge of the CCR Releasees and the Crown Releasees (together the “Released Persons”) hereunder only with respect to those matters that are the subject of the releases given in this Agreement, each of CCR and the Current Equityholders on behalf of the CCR Releasing Parties, and the Crown Parties on behalf of the Crown Releasing Parties, expressly acknowledges that this Agreement is intended to include in its effect, claims within the scope of the releases given in this Agreement that they do not know or suspect to exist in their favor at the time of execution hereof.

 

(b)      The parties acknowledge and agree that the inclusion of this Section 5.3 was separately bargained for and is a key element of this Agreement.

 

Section 5.4 Covenant Not to Sue.   Each of CCR and the Current Equityholders on behalf of the CCR Releasing Parties, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally

 

6



 

covenants to refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, instituting or causing to be commenced, any proceeding of any kind against any Crown Releasee, based upon any matter released by the CCR Releasing Parties hereby, and each of the Crown Parties on behalf of the Crown Releasing Parties, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally covenants to refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, instituting or causing to be commenced, any proceeding of any kind against any CCR Releasee, based upon any matter released by the Crown Releasing Parties hereby.  Any Crown Releasee or CCR Releasee may plead this Agreement as a complete bar to any claim brought in derogation of this covenant not to sue.

 

Section 5.5.  Accord and Satisfaction.  This Agreement and the releases reflected in this Agreement shall be effective as a full, final and irrevocable accord and satisfaction and release of the CCR Released Claims and the Crown Released Claims.

 

ARTICLE VI

Other than as a party hereto may determine is necessary to respond to any legal or regulatory process or proceeding or to give appropriate testimony or file any necessary documents in any legal or regulatory proceeding or as may be required by law, each of the parties hereto will use its commercially reasonable efforts not to make any public statements (including in any filing with the SEC or any other regulatory or governmental agency, including any stock exchange, or except as may be required by law) that are inconsistent with, or otherwise contrary to, the jointly approved statements in the press releases issued pursuant to this Section 6.1.
