1.7           Any action by TPAC to prevent the Escrow Agent from timely delivering any of the certificates to Cardiff shall be a material breach of this Agreement and shall entitle Cardiff, among other remedies, to immediate delivery of all remaining undelivered certificates.

3.2           The indemnification provisions shall extend to the following: Defendants, their affiliated entities, members, employees, and controlling persons (within the meaning of the federal securities laws).  All references to Defendants in this Section 3 shall be understood to include any and all of the foregoing.

Section 4.     Dismissal.  The Parties shall dismiss the Action with prejudice.  Upon execution of this Agreement, the Parties (through their respective counsel) shall execute and deliver a request for dismissal with prejudice (the “Dismissal”) dismissing the entire Action.  Upon Defendants’ delivery of the certificates evidencing the Returned Shares and Retained Shares and other documents and instruments set forth in Section 1.3, Plaintiffs hereby authorize counsel for Defendants to cause the Dismissal to be filed with the Orange County Superior Court (the “Court”).  The Court shall reserve jurisdiction to enforce this Settlement Agreement pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure §664.6.

6

 
7.4           It is the intention of the Parties that the foregoing general release shall be effective for use as a protective bar to all Plaintiff and Other Released Claims and Defendant Released Claims (Collectively, the “Released Claims”) and, except as set forth herein, shall terminate all of the Parties’ rights, duties, and obligations, if any, under any agreement between any Plaintiff Released Party, on the one hand, and any Defendant Released Party, on the other hand.  In furtherance, and not in limitation of such intention, the general release provided for herein shall be, and shall remain in effect, as a full and complete release, notwithstanding the later discovery or existence of any additional or different facts or claims, without limitation.

7.5           The Parties acknowledge that they have been advised by their respective attorneys and are familiar with and understand the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542 as well as all provisions of federal law, if any, that may provide any right or benefit that is similar in any material respect to California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows:

 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.

7.6           The Parties hereby voluntarily and expressly waive and relinquish each and every right or benefit which they may have under California Civil Code Section 1542 and all provisions of federal law, if any, that may provide any right or benefit that is similar in any material respect to the rights and benefits afforded under California Civil Code Section 1542, to the full extent that they may lawfully waive such rights.  The Parties acknowledge that they may hereafter discover facts in addition to or different from those which they presently know or believe to be true regarding the subject matter of the dispute and the other matters herein released, but agree that they have taken that possibility into account and that it is their intention hereby to fully, finally, and forever settle and release the matters, disputes and differences, now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, arising out of or in any way relating to the matters released pursuant to this Agreement.

7.7           The Parties hereto acknowledge that they expressly understand that this Agreement and the settlement it represents (a) is entered into solely for the purpose of avoiding any possible future expenses, burdens, or distractions of litigation, and (b) in no way constitutes an admission by any party hereto of any liability of any kind to any other party or of any wrongdoing on the part of any of the Parties.  In this connection, the Parties specifically deny any liability in connection with any claims which have been made or could have been made, or which are the subject matter of, or arise from, or are connected directly or indirectly with or related in any way to the claims, counterclaims, and defenses set forth in the Action.

7.8           Except with respect to the Retained Shares, the Series A Common Stock Purchase Warrant, and the Series B Common Stock Purchase Warrant,  each Defendant Releasing Party hereby voluntarily and expressly waives and relinquishes any and all right, title, and interest, whether legal, equitable, or otherwise, in and to (1) any ownership interest in and to any Plaintiff Party (including, without limitation, shares, shares of capital stock, interests, partnership interests, limited liability company interests, joint venture interests, participations, rights in, or other equivalents (however designated) of such Plaintiff Party’s equity (however designated) and any rights, warrants, or options exchangeable for or convertible into such shares, interests, participations, rights, or other equity, and (2) any interest in and to any Plaintiff Party’s assets (including, without limitation, cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, inventory, equipment, furniture, fixtures, pre-paid assets, deposits, intellectual property, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, proprietary processes and information, general intangibles, investment property, negotiable collateral, commercial tort claims, books and records, supporting obligations, real estate, leasehold interests in real estate, securities, securities accounts, the proceeds and products, whether tangible or intangible, of any of the foregoing, including proceeds of insurance covering any or all of the foregoing, or other tangible or intangible property resulting from the sale, exchange, collection, or other disposition of any of the foregoing, or any portion thereof or interest therein, and the proceeds thereof).
