                                         2014, for two months. Unless you notify BASi’s payroll department of a different
                                         bank account, this amount will be deposited in the bank account that you have previously
                                         designated for direct deposit;

                                         or regulation, dealing in any way with employment or employment-related benefits and
                                         all claims for costs and attorneys’ fees; and (c) all claims Devine may have against
                                         BASi arising out of Devine's employment and/or termination of employment with BASi, including
                                         any claims arising out of his Employment Agreement dated October 1, 2011. Devine agrees
                                         and understands that any claims he may have under the aforementioned laws, statutes or
                                         any other federal, state or local law, ordinance, rule or regulation are effectively

                                         the termination of his employment with BASi. Devine agrees to give up, release and waive
                                         all claims against BASi and not to bring any lawsuits against BASi relating to the claims
                                         he has given up, released and waived, nor will he allow any suit to be brought on his
                                         behalf. BASi represents that it is not aware of the existence of any claims it may have
                                         against Devine and has not discussed the possibility of litigation against him.

 

		5.	No
                                         Admission of Liability; Waiver. This Agreement shall not in any way be construed
                                         as an admission by BASi that it has acted wrongfully with respect to Devine or any other
                                         person, or that Devine has any rights whatsoever against BASi. Devine waives any right
                                         or claim of reinstatement to employment with BASi and agrees not to seek further employment
                                         with BASi. If Devine does seek employment with BASi, BASi is under no obligation to consider
                                         him for employment.
