Disability Claims. If a claim is related to any distribution or rights to which a Participant or other Claimant may be entitled in connection with the Participant’s termination by reason of suffering a Disability (“Disability Claim”) then, as soon as reasonable but within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such claim, the Committee will send to the Claimant by certified mail, postage prepaid, notice of the granting or denying, in whole or in part of such claim. This period within which the Committee must provide such notice may be extended twice, for up to thirty (30) days per extension, provided that the Committee # determines that an extension is needed and beyond the control of the Plan, and # notifies the Claimant prior to the expiration of the initial forty-five (45) day period or of the first thirty (30) day extension period. In the case of any extension request, the notice of extension shall specifically explain the standards on which entitlement to a benefit is based, the unresolved issues that prevent a decision on the claim, and the additional information needed to resolve those issues, and the Claimant shall be afforded at least forty-five (45) days within which to provide the specified information. If the Committee fails to notify the Claimant either that his or her claim has been granted or that it has been denied in whole or in part within the initial forty-five (45) day period or prior to the expiration of an extension, if applicable, then the claim shall be deemed to have been denied as of the last day of the applicable period, and the Claimant then may request a review of his or her claim. The Committee must ensure that all Disability Claims and appeals are adjudicated in a manner designed to ensure the independence and impartiality of the persons involved in making the Disability determination.

Any extension for deciding a claim will not be for more than an additional ninety (90) day period.

Claims Not Waived. Pennypacker understands that this Agreement does not waive any claims that he may have: # arising from acts or conduct occurring after the date that he signs the Agreement; # for compensation for illness or injury or medical expenses under any worker's compensation statute; # for benefits under any plan currently maintained by the Company that provides for retirement benefits or under the Company’s Deferred Compensation Plan (however, Pennypacker agrees and acknowledges that the payment(s) and benefits provided in paragraphs 3.a., thru 3.f. above shall not be considered or included for purposes of any retirement benefit contribution or plan); # under any law or any policy or plan currently maintained by the Company that provides health insurance continuation or conversion rights; # any claims for coverage under officers or directors insurance maintained by the Company for conduct or action that occurred prior to the Separation Date; # any claim for breach of this Agreement; or # any claim that by law cannot be released or waived.

Notification of Claims. The Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing as soon as practicable of any Claim which could relate to an Indemnifiable Event or for which the Indemnitee could seek Expense Advances, including a brief description (based upon information then available to the Indemnitee) of the nature of, and the facts underlying, such Claim. The failure by the Indemnitee to timely notify the Company hereunder shall not relieve the Company from any liability hereunder except to the extent that the Company has been damaged by such delay. The Company shall not be liable to indemnify the Indemnitee under this Agreement with respect to any judicial award in a Claim related to an Indemnifiable Event if the Company was not given a reasonable and timely opportunity to participate at its expense in the defense of such action. If at the time of the receipt of such notice, the Company has directors' and officers’ liability insurance in effect under which coverage for Claims related to Indemnifiable Events is potentially available, the Company shall give prompt written notice to the applicable insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable policies.

Defense of Claims. The Company shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event at its own expense and, except as otherwise provided below, to the extent the Company so wishes, it may assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. After notice from the Company to the Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of any such Claim, the Company shall not be liable to the Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise for any Expenses subsequently directly incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the Indemnitee’s defense of such Claim other than reasonable costs of investigation or as otherwise provided below. The Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its own legal counsel in such Claim, but all Expenses related to such counsel incurred after notice from the Company of its assumption of the defense shall be at the Indemnitee’s own expense; provided, however, that if # the Indemnitee’s employment of its own legal counsel has been authorized by the Company, # the Company’s counsel has reasonably determined that there may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnitee and the Company in the defense of such Claim, # after a Change in Control, the Indemnitee’s employment of its own counsel has been approved by the Independent Counsel or # the Company shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such Claim, then the Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain its own separate counsel (but not more than one law firm plus, if applicable, local counsel in respect of any such Claim) and all Expenses related to such separate counsel shall be borne by the Company.

Release of Claims. I voluntarily release and forever discharge the Company, its parents, subsidiaries, and affiliated entities, and each of those entities’ respective current and former shareholders, investors, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, insurers, legal successors and assigns (collectively referred to as the “Releasees”) generally from all claims, demands, debts, damages and liabilities of every name and nature, known or unknown (“Claims”) that, as of the date when I sign this Release, I have, ever had, now claim to have or ever claimed to have had against any or all of the Releasees. This includes, without limitation, the release of all Claims: relating to my employment by the Company and my separation from employment; of wrong discharge; of breach of contract; of retaliation or discrimination under federal, state or local law (including, without limitation, Claims of age discrimination or retaliation in Employment Act, Claims of disability or retaliation under the American with Disabilities Act, Claims of discrimination or retaliation under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and Claims of any form of discrimination or retaliation that is prohibited by the Tennessee Civil Rights Act or law of any other state); under any other federal or state statute; of defamation or other torts; of violation of public policy; for wages, bonuses, incentive compensation, vacation pay or any other compensation, vacation pay or any other compensation or benefits; and for damages or remedies of any sort, including, without limitation, compensatory damages, punitive damages, injunctive relief and attorney’s fees; provided, however, that this release shall not affect my rights under the Company’s [Section 401(k)] plan, my rights to the Separation Benefits under the Employment Agreement, my rights to indemnification under the Indemnification Agreement between the Company and me (the “Indemnification Agreement”), my rights to Directors’ and Officers’ insurance, my rights to any vested equity awards, my rights to file an administrative charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or other administrative agency, and any rights and claims that cannot be waived by law.
