Releasing Parties expressly waive the provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides:

The signatory below represents and warrants that he or she owns and/or has the authority to release the Claims released herein and to bind each of the Releasing Parties as provided in this Waiver of Liability Assumption of Risk and Indemnity Agreement, that none of the Claims have been assigned or transferred, and that this document contains the entire agreement of the parties.
