EXHIBIT B
RELEASE OF CLAIMS
FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION OF the severance pay and benefits to be provided to me under the letter agreement between me, McAfee Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), (the “Severance Agreement”), which are conditioned on my signing this Release of Claims and to which I am not otherwise entitled, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, I, on my own behalf and on behalf of my heirs, executors, administrators, beneficiaries, representatives and assigns, and all others connected with or claiming through me, hereby release and forever discharge the Company and its current and past parents, subsidiaries and other affiliates and all of their respective past, present and future officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, employees, agents, employee benefit plans, general and limited partners, members, managers, investors, joint venturers, representatives, successors and assigns, and all others connected with any of them, both individually and in their official capacities (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all causes of action, rights and claims of any type or description, known or unknown, which I have had in the past, now have, or might now have, through the date of my signing of this Release of Claims, in any way related to, connected with or arising out of my employment or its termination or the Severance Agreement or pursuant to any federal, state or local law, regulation or other requirement (including without limitation Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and/or the fair employment practices statute of the state or states in which I was previously employed by the Company or otherwise had a relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other affiliates, each as amended from time to time) (collectively, the “Released Claims”). This Release of Claims shall not apply to (a) any claim that arises after I sign this Release of Claims, (b) any rights to indemnification that I may have, (c) any claim that may not be waived pursuant to applicable law, (d) my rights to severance pay and benefits under the Severance Agreement as set forth on Schedule I1, (e) any rights I may have in respect of any vested equity that remains outstanding in accordance with its terms after my termination of employment or (f) my rights to any vested benefits to which I am entitled under the terms of any of the Company’s employee benefit plans.
If I am a California-based employee, in signing this Release, I expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits afforded by Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, and do so understanding and acknowledging the significance of such specific waiver of Section 1542, which Section states as follows:
A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.
