ACKNOWLEDGMENT BY EXECUTIVE RELEASOR. Executive Releasor acknowledges and agrees that Executive Releasor has read this Release in its entirety and that this Release is a general release of all known and unknown Claims. Executive Releasor further acknowledges and agrees that:

Executive understands that Executive is releasing claims about which Executive may not know anything at the time Executive executes this Agreement. Executive acknowledges that it is Executive’s intent to release such unknown claims, even though Executive recognizes that someday Executive might learn new facts relating to Executive’s employment or learn that some or all of the facts Executive currently believes to be true are untrue, and even though Executive might then regret having signed this Agreement. Nevertheless, Executive acknowledges Executive’s awareness of that risk and agrees that this Agreement shall remain effective in all respects in any such case. Executive expressly waives all rights Executive might have under any laws, including, without limitation, the laws set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement, intended to protect Executive from waiving unknown claims.

SECTION 1542 WAIVER. In granting the release herein, which includes claims that may be unknown to you at present, you acknowledge that you have read and understand Section 1542 of the California Civil Code: “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.” You hereby expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law or legal principle of similar effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the releases granted herein, including but not limited to the release of unknown and unsuspected claims granted in this Agreement.

This release includes all claims that I may have against Christopher & Banks, as described below, whether known or unknown, that relate in any way either to events that occurred or should have occurred during the time of my employment or the termination of that employment, up to the date I execute this Release, except the claims mentioned in paragraph 1.c of this Release.

Defense to Future Claims. Executive agrees that in the event that any claim, suit or action shall be commenced by her against the Company arising out of any charge, claim or cause of action of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, including, but not limited to, claims, suits or actions relating to her employment with Patterson or any prior agreement with Patterson, through this date, this Agreement shall constitute a complete defense to any such claims, suits or actions so instituted.

This Release covers any claims related in any way to Rosengarten’s employment with the Bank, the separation of her employment with the Bank, and wages and other remunerations. This Release includes any claims, whether they are presently known or unknown, or anticipated or unanticipated by Rosengarten. Rosengarten acknowledges and agrees that, if she is 40 years of age or older, her acceptance of this Agreement will also release any and all claims under the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act.

This Release covers any claims related in any way to Lammersfeld's employment with the Bank, the separation of his employment with the Bank, and wages and other remunerations. This Release includes any claims, whether they are presently known or unknown, or anticipated or unanticipated by Lammersfeld.

California Civil Code Section 1542. Employee acknowledges that Employee has been advised to consult with legal counsel and is familiar with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, a statute that otherwise prohibits the release of unknown claims, which provides as follows:

No Indemnity Claims. As of the date of this Agreement, neither Seller nor Medexus has made or provided any notice of an indemnity claim under the Sale Agreement.

Notice of Claims. Any indemnified party making a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2 or [Section 8.4] (as applicable, an “Indemnified Party”) must give the Seller, in the case of a claim for Damages by a Purchaser Indemnitee, or the Purchaser, in the case of a claim for Damages by a Seller Indemnitee (as applicable, the “Indemnifying Party”), written notice (a “Claim Notice”) of such claim describing such claim and the nature and amount of such Damages, to the extent that the nature and amount thereof are determinable at such time, promptly after the Indemnified Party receives any written notice of any Proceeding against or involving the Indemnified Party by a Third Party (a “Third Party Proceeding”) or otherwise discovers the Liability, obligation or facts giving rise to such claim for indemnification; provided, however, that the failure to notify or delay in notifying the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations pursuant to Section 8.2 or [Section 8.4], as the case may be, except to the extent that the defenses available to such Indemnifying Party are actually and materially prejudiced as a result thereof.
