Release Agreement
This Release Agreement (the “Agreement”), by and between Internap Corporation (the “Company”) and Joanna Lanni (“You” or “Your”) (the Company and You collectively referred to as the “Parties”) is entered into and effective as of May 31, 2019 (the “Effective Date”). 
1.Separation Date.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that Your employment with the Company terminated effective as of May 31, 2019 (the “Separation Date”). 
2.Separation Payment.  Provided that You satisfy the conditions of this Agreement, including the return of all Company property, and do not revoke this Agreement, the Company shall pay You a separation payment equal to Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00), minus all applicable withholdings, including taxes and Social Security (the “Separation Payment”).  The Separation Payment shall be paid on the first payroll date that is at least eight (8) days after You return an executed version of this Agreement to the Company’s Chief Administrative Officer in the Human Resources Department, at 250 Williams Street, Suite E-100, Atlanta, Georgia, 30303.  Because You are no longer employed, Your rights to any particular employee benefit shall be governed by applicable law and the terms and provisions of the Company’s various employee benefit plans and arrangements. You acknowledge that the Separation Date shall be the date used in determining benefits under all Company employee benefit plans. The Company’s obligation to provide You with the payments set forth above shall terminate immediately upon any breach by You of this Agreement or any post-termination obligations to which You are subject.  
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, if You breach this Agreement, You acknowledge and agree that: (a) You shall return to the Company ninety-five percent (95%) of the Separation Payment within ten (10) calendar days after receiving notice from the Company of Your breach, as such amount is not deemed earned absent Your full compliance with this Agreement; and (b) the remaining five percent (5%) of the Separation Payment shall constitute full and complete consideration sufficient to support enforcement of this Agreement against You, including, but not limited to, enforcement of Your release of claims set forth below.
3.Release.  In exchange for the consideration set forth above, You release and discharge the Company from any and all claims or liability, whether known or unknown, arising out of any event, act or omission occurring on or before the day You sign this Agreement, including, but not limited to, claims to damages for pain and suffering and emotional harm arising out of any promise, agreement, contract, or common law, claims arising out of Your employment or the cessation of Your employment, claims arising out of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), 29 U.S.C. §§ 1001-1461, claims for breach of contract, express or implied, or breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, express or implied, tort, defamation, misrepresentation, fraud, negligent or intentional infliction of emotional distress, or negligence, negligent hiring, negligent retention, negligent supervision, negligent training, employment discrimination, retaliation, or harassment, as well as any other statutory or common law claims, at law or in equity, recognized under any federal, state, or local law, including, but not limited to, federal and state wage and hour laws, federal and state whistleblower laws, New Jersey Civil Rights Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Equal Pay Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Employment Retirement Income Security Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, OSHA, the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination, New Jersey Family Leave Act, the New Jersey Paid Family Leave Act, New Jersey Worker Freedom from Employer Intimidation Act, The Millville Dallas Airmotive Plant Job Loss Notification Act (“NJ Warn”), and the Conscientious Employee Protection Act, as each may be amended from time to time.  You also release any claims for unpaid back pay, sick pay, vacation pay, expenses, bonuses, claims arising out of or relating to equity or other ownership interest in the Company, claims to commissions, attorneys’ fees or any other compensation.  You agree that You are not entitled to any additional payment or benefits from the Company, except as set forth in this Agreement. You further agree that You have suffered no harassment, retaliation, employment discrimination, or work-related injury or illness and that you do not believe that this Agreement is a subterfuge to avoid disclosure of sexual harassment or gender discrimination allegations or to waive such claims.  You further acknowledge and represent that You (i) have been fully paid (including, but not limited to, any overtime to which You are entitled, if any) for hours You worked for the Company, and (ii) do not claim that the Company violated or denied Your rights under the Fair Labor Standards Act.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the release of claims set forth in this Section does not waive Your right to receive benefits under the Company’s 401(k) or pension plans, if any, that either (a) have accrued or vested prior to the Separation Date, or (b) are intended, under the terms of such plans, to survive Your separation from the Company.
4.ADEA/OWBPA Waiver.  By agreeing to this provision, You release and waive any right or claim against the Company1 arising out of Your employment or the termination of Your employment with the Company under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, 29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq. (“ADEA”), and the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, 29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq. (“OWBPA”) (such release and waiver referred to as the “Waiver”). You understand and agree that, (i) this Agreement is written in a manner that You understand; (ii) You do not release or waive rights or claims that may arise after You sign this Agreement; (iii) You waive rights and claims You may have had under the OWBPA and the ADEA, but only in exchange for payments and/or benefits in addition to anything of value to which You are already entitled; (iv) You are advised to consult with an attorney before signing this Agreement; (v) You have twenty-one (21) calendar days  from receipt of this Agreement to consider whether to sign it (the “Offer Period”). The Parties agree that the Company may revoke this offer at any time.  However, if You sign before the end of the Offer Period, You acknowledge that Your decision to do so was knowing, voluntary, and not induced by fraud, misrepresentation, or a threat to withdraw, alter, or provide different terms prior to the expiration of the Offer Period. You agree that changes or revisions to this Agreement, whether material or immaterial, do not restart the running of the Offer Period; (vi) You have seven (7) calendar days after signing this Agreement to revoke this Agreement (the “Revocation Period”). If You revoke, the Agreement shall not be effective or enforceable and You shall not be entitled to the consideration set forth in this Agreement. To be effective, the revocation must be in writing and received by the Company’s Chief Administrative Officer in the Human Resources Department, at 250 Williams Street, Suite E-100, Atlanta, Georgia, 30303, prior to expiration of the Revocation Period; and (vii) this Waiver shall not become effective or enforceable until the Revocation Period has expired.
5.No Admission of Liability.  This Agreement is not an admission of liability by the Company.1  The Company denies any liability whatsoever.  The Company enters into this Agreement to reach a mutual agreement concerning Your separation from the Company.
6.Non-Disparagement/Future Employment. You shall not make any disparaging or defamatory statements, whether written or oral, regarding the Company.1  You agree that the Company has no obligation to consider You for employment should You apply in the future.
