Employee understands that he is not releasing any ADEA claims that arise after HE signs this Agreement.

(2)    Consideration for Waiver of ADEA Claims: The parties agree that the ADEA Separation Pay set forth in Section B, above, is being provided, in part, in exchange for Employee’s knowing and voluntary release and waiver of all rights and claims he has or may have arising under the ADEA.

(3)    Consideration Period: Employee acknowledges that the Company has advised him, in writing, to consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement, and that the Company provided him with at least twenty-one (21) days to review and consider this Agreement before executing it.
