Common use of Known and Unknown Claims Clause in Contracts

Known and Unknown Claims. The Employee understands and agrees that the claims released in Section 3(a) above include not only claims presently known to him, but also include all unknown or unanticipated claims, rights, demands, actions, obligations, liabilities and causes of action of every kind and character that would otherwise come within the scope of the released claims as described in Section 3. The Employee understands that he may hereafter discover facts different from what he now believes to be true, which if known, could have materially affected this Agreement, but he nevertheless waives and releases any claims or rights based on different or additional facts.
