or have ever been engaged by (whether as independent contractors or otherwise),

hereafter existing or revived in the future whatsoever in law, admiralty, equity or

"Claims") which against the Releasees, Releasor ever had, now has or hereafter can, shall
or may have, for, upon, or by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever from the
beginning of the world through the date of this General Release.
This General Release is a broad release of any and all Claims of Releasor against
any and all Releasees, including without limitation any and all causes of action, lawsuits,
claims, demands, damages and liability whatsoever, and also including without
limitation to the extent of their respective liability for the same, any and all such claims
against any and all Releasees for contribution as to any other person or persons who may
be determined to have been joint tortfeasors arising out of or in any way related to any
and all known and unknown personal injuries, and also including without limitation any
derivative claims for loss of consortium, under any federal, state or local law, without
limitation. This General Release is all-encompassing and is specifically made and given
on the premise that any and all Claims by Releasor are hereby released and extinguished,
whether said Claims arose in Florida, New Mexico, New York, the United States Virgin
Islands, France or any other country, state, territory, possession or jurisdiction, or
otherwise.
This General Release extends to released Claims that Releasor does not know or
suspect to exist in her favor, which, if known by Releasor, would have materially affected
her decision to enter into this General Release, and Releasor understands and agrees that
she is releasing any and all such unknown or unsuspected Claims in Releaseess favor.
Releasor acknowledges that she is familiar with Section 1542 of the California Civil Code,
which provides as follows:
A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE
CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN
2
CONFIDEMIAL
EFTA00099052
HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF
KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER
SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.
Releasor expressly waives and relinquishes any right or benefit that Releasor has
or may have under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code and under any other statute
or legal principle with similar effect. In connection with such waiver and relinquishment,
Releasor acknowledges that she is aware that, after executing this General Release,
Releasor or Releasor's attorneys or agents may discover released Claims or facts in
addition to, or different from, those which they now know or believe to exist with respect
to the subject matter of this General Release, but that it is Releasor's intent hereby to fully,
finally and forever settle and release all of the Claims, whether known or unknown,
suspected or unsuspected, which now exist, may exist, or heretofore may have existed.
In furtherance of this intent, this General Release shall be, and remain in effect as, a full
and complete release of the Claims notwithstanding the discovery or existence of any
such additional or different Claims or facts.
The Administrator of the EVCP has retained Garretson Resolution Group, Inc.
d/b/a Epiq Mass Tort ("Epiq") to verify and resolve any lien or reimbursement claim
that may be owed to Medicare Part A and/or Part B ("Medicare") and/or Medicaid with
respect to compensation awarded to any participating claimant under the EVCP. If either
entity asserts a lien or reimbursement claim, Epiq is hereby authorized to act on behalf of
the EVCP to verify and resolve such lien or reimbursement claim. In the Claim Form,
Releasor authorized the Administrator to use and/or disclose information as to Releasor
for the resolution of Medicare and/or Medicaid liens. This includes providing to Epiq
certain information as to Releasor, including: (1) first name, last name and middle initial,
(2) Social Security number; (3) date of birth, (4) gender and (5) basic information
regarding the nature of Releaser's Claims, and authorizing the Administrator and Epiq
to use, exchange and report this information to Medicare and Medicaid, as may be
necessary, for purposes of verifying and resolving Medicare and/or Medicaid liens
and/or reimbursement claims and ensuring compliance with the Medicare Secondary
Payer Act, 42 U.S.C. § 1395(y)(b), and its accompanying regulations. In the event that
Epiq resolves the asserted claim or lien, the Epstein Estate will pay the negotiated amount
in addition to any Compensation Offer determined by the Administrator.
Releasor represents and acknowledges that she is voluntarily and freely granting
this General Release in exchange for payment of the Compensation Offer, and that she is
legally competent to execute and deliver this General Release.
Releasor further
represents that she is represented by legal counsel and has received legal advice prior to

EFTA00099053
entering into this General Release and that she has been advised by said attorney
regarding the terms and conditions of this General Release, which she has completely
read and fully understands, including that accepting the Compensation Offer and signing
this General Release is a full and final compromise, adjustment and resolution of any and
all Claims that Releasor may now have or ever will have against Releasees.
Pursuant to the EVCP Protocol, the Administrator will maintain the confidentiality
of all information and documentation relating to claimants who participate in the EVCP
Program. This General Release does not require participating claimants to maintain such
confidentiality and Releasor may — at Releasers voluntary and sole option — disclose
such information regarding the claims process and/or the Compensation Offer and any
other information pertaining to her claim.
This General Release specifically does not include
as a Releasee or
released party under this Agreement, and all parties expressly acknowledge, agree and
understand that any and all claims that Releasor has or may have against
are expressly preserved.
Releasor represents and warrants that she has not assigned any Claims released
pursuant to this General Release.
Releasor will dismiss with prejudice any and all legal actions — whether lawsuits,
probate claims or otherwise - that Releasor has filed against any of Releasees, with each
party to bear her, his or its own costs and attorneys fees and will submit proof of
dismissal to the Administrator along with or prior to the signed acceptance of the
Compensation Offer and this executed Release.
This General Release contains the entire understanding of the Releasor and the Co-
Executors of the Epstein Estate. Any modification of any of the provisions of this General
Release shall be effective only if made in writing and executed by Releasor and the Co-
Executors of the Epstein Estate with the same formality as this General Release.
