Subject to your acceptance in accordance with this paragraph 1, the Company hereby grants to you the aggregate number of RSUs set forth in the Grant Letter, in accordance with the Plan (the “RSU Award”).

By accepting the RSU Award, you acknowledge and agree that you have reviewed the terms of Plan and the Award Agreement and agree to be bound by those terms.

2.   Taxes
You are responsible for all taxes or other governmental charges with respect to the RSU Award and the RSUs granted to you, whether as a result of the grant, vesting or settlement of the RSUs or otherwise and the Company shall not be liable for any adverse tax consequences to you.  You are advised to consult with your own personal tax, financial and/or legal advisors regarding the tax consequences of this RSU Award, in your particular circumstances, and by accepting the RSU Award in accordance with paragraph 1, you agree that you done so or knowingly and voluntarily declined to do so. 

3.   Restrictions
You agree that at all times prior to the vesting of the RSUs as contemplated by paragraph 4 below:

		
	a)
	You will not sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber the RSUs; and

		
	b)
	If your employment with the Company is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated for any reason whatsoever, or you violate the terms of any confidentiality agreement, non-solicitation covenant or covenant not to compete, however delineated, subject to paragraph 4 below, all RSUs that remain subject to the restrictions set forth in this paragraph 3 shall be immediately forfeited without any action on your part.

4.   Vesting
		
	a)
	Except as set forth in subparagraphs 4(b), 4(c) and 4(d) below, the restrictions set forth in paragraph 3 above shall lapse, and the RSUs shall become vested with respect to one-third of the RSUs on the one year anniversary of the “Grant Date” set forth in the Grant Letter, and one-third of the RSUs on each of the next two successive anniversaries of such date (each individually a “Vesting Date”), except that, if the anniversary of the Grant Date falls between November 30 and December 31, the Vesting Date for the third calendar year shall be November 30 of that year.    

		
	b)
	Subject to sections 4(c) and (d), in the event that you cease to be an employee of the Company prior to any Vesting Date for any reason the RSUs scheduled to vest on such Vesting Date, and all RSUs scheduled to vest in the future, shall not vest and shall be forfeited and cancelled effective as at the date that you ceased to be an employee (the “Termination Date”), as determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, without regard, in the case of a termination of your employment by the Company, to any statutory or common law severance period or any period of reasonable notice that the Company may be required by law to provide to you.   Effective as at the Termination Date, all rights to and under such forfeited and cancelled RSUs shall terminate and no payment shall be made to you in relation to such cancelled RSUs.  

		
	c)
	If on or prior to your Termination Date, you have attained the age of 60 and have completed at least five years of continuous service with the Company, then paragraph 4(b) shall not apply to your RSUs.  As at the Termination Date, the restrictions 

1

set forth in paragraph 3 above shall lapse with respect to that portion of the RSUs that is not yet vested as set forth in subparagraph 4(a) above and such unvested RSUs shall vest in two substantially equal installments, the first installment to vest on your Termination Date and the second installment to vest on the earliest of (i) the first anniversary of your Termination Date; (ii) the third anniversary of the Grant Date, or (iii) November 30 of the calendar year in which the third anniversary of your Grant Date occurs. Each date of vesting for purposes of this paragraph 4(c) shall be a Vesting Date for purposes of section 5 below.  

		
	d)
	If you should die or your employment is terminated as a result of a disability prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date (or if earlier, November 30 of the calendar year in which the third anniversary of your Grant Date occurs), while you are an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, then paragraph 4(b) shall not apply to your RSUs.  The restrictions set forth in paragraph 3 above shall lapse and any unvested RSUs shall become vested, in the case of death, on the day that immediately precedes the date of your death and, in the case of disability, the date the Committee makes the determination that you have a disability.  For purposes hereof, you will be considered to have a “disability” if you have physical, mental or emotional limits caused by a current sickness or injury and, due to these limits, you are not able to perform, on a full-time basis, the major duties of your own job with or without reasonable accommodation (e.g., if you are required, on average, to work more than 40 hours per week, you will not be considered to have a “disability” if you are able to perform the major duties of your employment for 40 hours per week); you will not be considered to have a disability if you perform any work for wage or profit, and the loss of a professional or occupational license will not, in and of itself, constitute a “disability.”  The date of vesting for purposes of this paragraph 4(d) shall be a Vesting Date for purposes of section 5 below.  

		
	e)
	 In no circumstances will RSUs vest after the earlier of the earlier of  third anniversary of the Grant Date and November 30 of the third calendar year following the end of the year in which the RSUs are granted to you.  Effective as at December 1 of such third calendar year, any unvested RSUs shall be cancelled and no payments shall be made in respect of such cancelled RSUs.   

5.   Settlement
Within 30 days after the Vesting Date of RSUs, the Company shall pay you (or your legal representative) an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on such Vesting Date times the number of RSUs that became vested on such Vesting Date.  Such RSUs shall thereupon be cancelled and no further amounts paid with respect to them.  Notwithstanding any other terms of the Plan or the Award Agreement, payments in respect of vested RSUs must be paid in full on or before December 31 of the third calendar year following the end of the year in which the Grant Date occurs.  

		
	6.
	Dividend Equivalent Rights

As and when cash dividends are paid on Shares held by Shareholders of the Company, you will be paid an amount equal to the cash dividend paid on a single Share, multiplied by the number of RSUs not yet cancelled or forfeited, that are held by you on the record date of the dividend payment.  Such dividend equivalent payments shall be treated as employment income received by you in the year of payment.  

		
	7.
	Copy of Plan

By accepting the RSUs, you acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Plan, the terms and conditions of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof by reference as if set forth in full.

		
	8.
	Administration

The agreement and understanding regarding the RSUs shall at all times be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. The Committee shall have the sole and complete discretion with respect to all matters reserved to it by the Plan and decisions of the Committee with respect thereto and to the terms set forth herein shall be final and binding upon you. In the event of any conflict between the provisions set forth herein and those set forth in the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern and control.

		
	9.
	Continuation of Employment

The agreement and understanding regarding the RSUs shall not confer upon you, and shall not be construed to confer upon you, any right to continue in the employ of the Company for any period of time, and shall not limit the rights of the Company in its sole discretion, to terminate your employment at any time, with or without cause, for any reason or no reason, or to change your assignment or rate of compensation.

		
	10.
	Withholding of Tax

The Company may take such reasonable steps for the deduction and withholding of any taxes and other required source deductions which the Company is required by law or regulation of any governmental authority whatsoever to remit in 

2

connection with the RSU Award.   Without limiting the generality of  the foregoing, the Company shall deduct and withhold those amounts it is required to remit from any cash payment made on the settlement of the RSUs and/or, to the extent necessary, from remuneration or other amounts payable to you.  

		
	11.
	No Rights as a Shareholder

You understand that the issuance of RSUs to you will not make you a shareholder with respect to the RSUs and you shall have no rights of a shareholder with respect to such RSUs, including the right to vote any Shares or to receive any dividends or other distributions paid with respect to any Shares other than as specifically set forth herein. The RSUs shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in paragraph 2 above.

		
	12.
	Non Transferability. No RSUs may be transferred, pledged or assigned otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation, or other disposition of an RSU contrary to the provisions of the Plan or the provisions hereof, and the levy of any execution, attachment, or similar process upon an RSU, will be null and void and without effect.

		
	13.
	Adjustment. In the event of a reorganization, reclassification, combination of shares, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off, stock dividend, dividend in kind, other distribution or other such event then the number of RSUs shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee to reflect such event. In the event there shall be any other change in the number or kind of outstanding shares of Common Stock, or any stock or other securities into which such shares of Common Stock shall have been changed, or for which it shall have been exchanged, whether by reason of a merger, consolidation or otherwise, then the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine the appropriate adjustment, if any, to be effected.

		
	14.
	Further Assurances

By accepting the RSUs discussed herein, you agree to execute such papers, agreements, assignments, or documents of title as may be necessary or desirable to effect the purposes described herein and carry out its provisions.

		
	15.
	Governing Law

The agreement and understanding regarding the RSUs, and its interpretation and effect, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota applicable to contracts executed and to be performed therein.

		
	16.
	Amendments

Except as provided in the Plan, this Award Agreement may be amended only by a written agreement executed by the Company and you.

		
	17.
	Entire Agreement

The provisions set forth herein and those contained in the Grant Letter and the Plan embody the entire agreement and understanding between you and the Company with respect to the matters covered herein, in the Grant Letter and in the Plan, and such provisions may only be modified pursuant to a written agreement signed by the party to be charged.

CIVITAS SOLUTIONS, INC.

 Edward M. Murphy 
  

	 	Re:	Retirement Letter Agreement and Release 

 Dear Ned: 

This letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) will confirm our understanding with regard to your retirement from Civitas
Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”). 
 1. Retirement. Your last day of work with the Company and your retirement date
will be December 31, 2015 (your “Retirement Date”). You will resign all of your positions at the Company and its affiliates as of your Retirement Date, including as the Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of the
Company (the “Board”), and you will execute such additional documents as requested by the Company to evidence the foregoing. Your Retirement Date will be the termination date of your employment for purposes of active participation
in and coverage under all benefit plans and programs sponsored by or through the Company or its affiliates and will be a “Separation from Service” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §409A-1(h). Notwithstanding the foregoing, you shall
remain as a member of the Board and shall become the non-executive Chairman of the Board upon your Retirement Date, and shall be entitled to serve in that role through the end of your current term ending at the Company’s annual meeting of
shareholders expected to be held in March, 2016, at which and following which you will not seek reelection and will not be further nominated to continue as a member of the Board. Prior to the Retirement Date, your employment shall continue to be
governed in all respects by that certain Third Amended and Restated Employment Agreement by and between you and the Company dated September 17, 2014 (the “Employment Agreement”). In the event that you do not remain employed
with the Company through the Retirement Date, the termination of your employment shall be governed exclusively by the Employment Agreement and not this Letter Agreement, and this Letter Agreement shall have no further force or effect. 

2. Retirement Benefits. In consideration for your execution of a general release of claims as provided in paragraph 6 hereof, your
continued compliance with your post-termination obligations under the Employment Agreement, and the other promises contained herein, following your Retirement Date, you will receive the severance benefits described in Section 6(b) of the
Employment Agreement in accordance with all of the terms and conditions thereof. For purposes of clarity, you are a “Specified Employee” (as defined under Section 409A of the US Internal Revenue Code) and accordingly the severance
benefits described in Section 6(b) of the Employment Agreement shall be delayed until July 1, 2016. Any severance benefits delayed as result will be paid to you in a lump sum on first regular payroll date following July 1, 2016 and
thereafter the severance benefits will be paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 6(b) of the Employment Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Employment Agreement, following the date hereof you will not
have Good Reason (as defined 

 
in the Employment Agreement) to terminate your employment prior to the Retirement Date on account of any of the changes to your employment with the Company contemplated in this Letter Agreement.

 3. LLC Cooperation. You will remain a member of NMH Investment, LLC (the “LLC”) and remain bound by the terms and
conditions of the Amended and Restated Securityholders Agreement Dated as of September 16, 2014 among the LLC and Other Parties Thereto and the LLC’s Seventh Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement dated as of
September 16, 2014 for so long as you remain a member. In connection with any future pro rata distribution of assets, including, without limitation, Company common stock, from the LLC to the members of the LLC, you, in your capacity as a member
of the LLC, agree to cooperate and to execute such documents as may be reasonably requested by the LLC to facilitate the distribution, including, without limitation, a joinder agreement to the Registration Rights Agreement dated September 22,
2014 between the Company and the LLC (as may be amended from time to time, the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which you will become a party to the Registration Rights Agreement and become subject to the rights and
obligations thereunder. 
 4. LLC Equity Treatment. Provided that you remain employed with the Company through the Retirement Date,
the LLC agrees that your Class H Units issued pursuant to that certain Management Unit Subscription Agreement dated as of September 14, 2012 and amended as of September 22, 2014 (the “H Unit Agreement”) shall remain
outstanding following your Retirement Date and shall have the opportunity to become “Vested Units” upon the MOI Satisfaction Date (as defined in the H Unit Agreement), notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.5(a) of the
H Unit Grant Agreement. 
 5. Stock Options. Provided that you remain employed with the Company through the Retirement Date, the
Company agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in that certain Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement by and between you and the Company, dated as of September 16, 2014, (the “Options”) and issued pursuant to the
Company’s 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), your Retirement Date shall not constitute a “Termination” for purposes of the Options so long as you continue as a member of the Board following your Retirement
Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the end of your service on the Board shall constitute a “Termination” for purposes of the Options, and you shall have ninety (90) days following such “Termination” to exercise any Options
that are vested at such time. 
 6. No Other Compensation or Benefits. You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this
Letter Agreement, as provided under the terms of a Company employee benefit plan in which you participate or as otherwise required by applicable law, you will not receive any additional compensation, severance or other benefits of any kind following
the Retirement Date. 
 7. Release. Any and all amounts payable and benefits or additional rights contemplated by paragraph 2 hereof
will only be payable if you deliver to the Company and do not revoke a general release of claims in favor of the Company in the form attached on Exhibit A hereto. Such release must be executed and delivered (and no longer subject to
revocation, if applicable) by you within sixty (60) days following the Retirement Date. 

  
 2 

 8. Restrictive Covenants; Survival. You hereby (a) reaffirm the rights and
obligations under Sections 7 through 10 of the Employment Agreement, and (b) understand, acknowledge and agree that such rights and obligations will survive your retirement from the Company and remain in full force and effect in accordance with
all of the terms and conditions thereof. While your obligations under Sections 7 through 10 of the Employment Agreement remain in force, you may request the written approval of the Board to serve as an officer, director, agent or employee of another
business enterprise. Notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in Section 9 of the Employment Agreement, you may retain your current Company-issued cellphone and cellphone number, your current Company-issued Surface Pro, a copy of your
contacts database and copies of diaries, calendars and personal papers related to your terms and conditions of employment, participation in employee benefits, expense reimbursements and tax reporting and filing, provided, however that all
Confidential Information is removed from each such device prior to your Retirement Date. 
 9. Mutual Nondisparagement. You hereby
agree not to make false, disparaging or defamatory statements in public or in private regarding the Company or its officers, directors, employees, shareholders, agents or products at any time following the Retirement Date. The Company hereby agrees
that it will direct its executive officers and directors, while employed by the Company or serving as a director of the Company, not to make any false, disparaging or defamatory statements in public or in private about you or otherwise disparage you
in any manner that is likely to be harmful to your business reputation. The foregoing will not be violated by truthful statements in response to legal process, required governmental testimony or filings, or administrative or arbitral proceedings
(including, without limitation, depositions in connection with such proceedings), and the foregoing limitation on the Company’s executive officers and directors will not be violated by statements that they in good faith believe are necessary or
appropriate to make in connection with performing their duties and obligations to the Company. 
 10. Governing Law. This Letter
Agreement will be governed by, and construed under and in accordance with, the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to the choice of law rules thereof. 

11. Tax Matters. The Company may withhold from any and all amounts payable under this Letter Agreement such federal, state, local or
foreign taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits contemplated under this Letter Agreement either comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of
Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. To the extent that the payments and benefits contemplated by this Letter Agreement are not exempt from the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, this Letter Agreement is intended to comply
with the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A to the maximum extent possible, and shall be limited, construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. You and the Company hereby agree that your retirement on the Retirement
Date will constitute a “separation from service” within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. 

  
 3 

 12. Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this Letter Agreement
and the exhibit attached hereto constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all prior agreements or understandings between you and the Company with respect to the
subject matter hereof, whether written or oral (including, without limitation, the Employment Agreement). This Letter Agreement will bind the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of both you and the Company, and inure to the
benefit of both you and the Company, and their respective heirs, successors and assigns, provided that you may not assign your rights or obligations hereunder. This Letter Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument
executed by you and the Company.

 EXHIBIT A 

GENERAL RELEASE BY EDWARD M. MURPHY 

I, Edward M. Murphy, in consideration of and subject to the performance by Civitas Solutions, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the
“Company”), of its obligations under the Retirement Letter Agreement by and between the Company and me dated as of August 19, 2015 (the “Agreement”), do hereby release and forever discharge as of the date hereof the
Company and its respective affiliates, subsidiaries and direct or indirect parent entities and all present, former and future directors, officers, agents, representatives, employees, successors and assigns of the Company and/or its respective
affiliates, subsidiaries and direct or indirect parent entities (collectively, the “Released Parties”) to the extent provided below (this “General Release”). The Released Parties are intended to be third-party
beneficiaries of this General Release, and this General Release may be enforced by each of them in accordance with the terms hereof in respect of the rights granted to such Released Parties hereunder. Terms used herein but not otherwise defined
shall have the meanings given to them in the Agreement. 
 1. I understand that any payments or benefits paid or granted to me under
paragraph 2 of the Agreement represent, in part, consideration for signing this General Release and are not salary, wages or benefits to which I was already entitled. I understand and agree that I will not receive the payments and benefits specified
in paragraph 2 of the Agreement unless I execute this General Release and do not revoke this General Release within the time period permitted hereafter. Such payments and benefits will not be considered compensation for purposes of any employee
benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement maintained or hereafter established by the Company or its affiliates. 
 2. Except as provided
in paragraphs 4 and 5 below and except for the provisions of the Agreement which expressly survive my retirement from the Company, I knowingly and voluntarily (for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators and assigns) release and forever
discharge the Company and the other Released Parties from any and all claims, suits, controversies, actions, causes of action, cross-claims, counter-claims, demands, debts, compensatory damages, liquidated
damages, punitive or exemplary damages, other damages, claims for costs and attorneys’ fees, or liabilities of any nature whatsoever in law and in equity, both past and present (through the date that this General Release becomes effective and
enforceable) and whether known or unknown, suspected, or claimed against the Company or any of the Released Parties which I, my spouse, or any of my heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, may have, by reason of any matter, cause, or thing
whatsoever, from the beginning of my initial dealings with the Company to the date of this General Release, and particularly, but without limitation of the foregoing general terms, any claims arising from or relating in any way to my employment
relationship with the Company, the terms and conditions of that employment relationship, and the termination of that employment relationship (including, but not limited to, any allegation, claim or violation, arising under: Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (including the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act); the Equal Pay Act of 1963, as amended; the Americans with Disabilities
Act of 1990; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; any applicable Executive Order Programs; the Fair Labor Standards Act;

  
 A-1 

 
or their state or local counterparts; or under any other federal, state or local civil or human rights law, or under any other local, state, or federal law, regulation or ordinance; or under any
public policy, contract or tort, or under common law; or any other claim arising under any policies, practices or procedures of the Company; or any claim for wrongful discharge, breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress, defamation; or
any claim for costs, fees, or other expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as the “Claims”). 

3. I represent that I have made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, demand, cause of action, or other matter covered by paragraph 2
above. 
 4. I agree that this General Release does not waive or release any rights or claims that I may have under the Age Discrimination
in Employment Act of 1967 which arise after the date I execute this General Release. I acknowledge and agree that my retirement from employment with the Company in compliance with the terms of the Agreement shall not serve as the basis for any claim
or action (including, without limitation, any claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967). 
 5. I agree that I hereby
waive all rights to sue or obtain equitable, remedial or punitive relief from any or all Released Parties of any kind whatsoever in respect of any Claim, including, without limitation, reinstatement, back pay, front pay, and any form of injunctive
relief. Notwithstanding the above, I further acknowledge that I am not waiving and am not being required to waive any right that cannot be waived under law, including the right to file an administrative charge or participate in an administrative
investigation or proceeding; provided, however, that I disclaim and waive any right to share or participate in any monetary award resulting from the prosecution of such charge or investigation or proceeding. Additionally, I am not
waiving (i) any right to the severance or related benefits to which I am entitled under the Agreement (including without limitation the severance benefits described in Section 6(b) of the Third Amended and Restated Employment Agreement by
and between the Company and me dated September 17, 2014), (ii) any right to vested benefits under any Company-sponsored employee benefit plan in which I participated during my employment; (iii) any claim relating to directors’
and officers’ liability insurance coverage or any right of indemnification under the Company’s organizational documents, (iv) my rights as an equity holder of the Company or its affiliates, or (v) any claims which by law cannot
be waived in a private agreement between employer and employee including, but not limited to, the right to file a charge with, cooperate with or participate in an investigation conducted or overseen by a governmental agency such as the Securities
and Exchange Commission, the Office of Inspector General or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (collectively, the “Excluded Claims”). 

6. In signing this General Release, I acknowledge and intend that it shall be effective as a bar to each and every one of the Claims
hereinabove mentioned or implied other than the Excluded Claims. I expressly consent that this General Release shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown
and unsuspected Claims (notwithstanding any state or local statute that expressly limits the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims hereinabove
mentioned or implied. I acknowledge and agree that this waiver is an essential and material term of this General Release and that 

  
 A-2 

 
without such waiver the Company would not have agreed to the terms of the Agreement. I further agree that in the event I should bring a Claim seeking damages against the Company, or in the event
I should seek to recover against the Company in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on my behalf, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims to the maximum extent permitted by law. 

7. Neither this General Release, nor the furnishing of the consideration for this General Release, shall be deemed or construed at any time to
be an admission by the Company, any Released Party or myself of any improper or unlawful conduct. 
 8. I agree that if I violate this
General Release by suing the Company or the other Released Parties related to any Claims, I will pay all reasonable costs and expenses of defending against the suit incurred by the Released Parties, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. 

9. I represent that I am not aware of any claim by me other than the claims that are released by this General Release. I acknowledge that I
may hereafter discover claims or facts in addition to or different than those which I now know or believe to exist with respect to the subject matter of the release set forth in paragraph 2 above and which, if known or suspected at the time of
entering into this General Release, may have materially affected this General Release and my decision to enter into it. 
 10.
Notwithstanding anything in this General Release to the contrary, this General Release shall not relinquish, diminish or in any way affect any rights or claims arising out of any breach by the Company or by any Released Party of the Agreement after
the date hereof. 
 11. Whenever possible, each provision of this General Release shall be interpreted in, such manner as to be effective
and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this General Release is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall
not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this General Release shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

	 	1.	I HAVE READ IT CAREFULLY; 

  

	 	2.	I UNDERSTAND ALL OF ITS TERMS AND KNOW THAT I AM GIVING UP IMPORTANT RIGHTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, RIGHTS UNDER THE AGE DISCRIMINATION IN EMPLOYMENT ACT OF 1967, AS AMENDED, TITLE VII OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT OF
