Damage Waiver (Damage Only):
Renters have the option to purchase a Damage Waiver for unintentional damage to the rented Equipment (equipment listed in the MedyMate Listing), that they rented, from the start to the end of the Rental Period.
The Damage Waiver option is not an insurance policy. The Damage Waiver option covers unintentional or accidental damage to the rented Equipment, subject to the Exclusions listed below. The coverage includes the cost to potentially repair or replace the Equipment, up to $6000.00 (max amount payable by MedyMate to repair or replace the Equipment that is covered by the Damage Waiver option).
By purchasing the Damage Waiver option, you, the Renter of Equipment from an Owner/member on MedyMate, assume all responsibility and will be liable for all damage to, theft of, or loss of the Equipment while rented. In order to reduce your exposure for such damage, MedyMate offers a Damage Waiver option that will reduce (but not eliminate) your responsibility for accidental damage to the rented Equipment up to the specified limit purchased and/or the listing Replacement Value, as determined by MedyMate. In return for paying the cost of the Damage Waiver option, so long as you fully comply with MedyMate's Terms of Use and Renter Expectations and Terms, MedyMate will be financially responsible for the accidental damage of the rented Equipment, up to the limit purchased and/or the listing replacement value, for the duration of the rental transaction, minus any applicable deductible(s) (which can range, as the deductible is 12% the Equipment Replacement Value (as provided on the Listing when a Renter requests a rental) of all the Equipment in the MedyMate Listing).
Any deductible(s) are due to MedyMate or the Owner of the Equipment upon payment of the claim. If the purchaser of the Damage Waiver option does not remit payment of the deductible amount which is due to MedyMate or the Equipment Owner, MedyMate reserves the right and the Renter agrees and authorizes MedyMate to charge the Renter's payment method on the Renter's account or attempt to collect the debt using alternative methods.
The Damage Waiver option will apply to the rental transaction that is was purchased, under the Renter name, Rental Period dates, which may include a rented Equipment limit, any deductibles per claim, Damage Waiver option fees paid, and the date paid.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
The damage limitations set forth below are subject to your compliance with all of your obligations under the Terms of Use and Renter Expectations and Terms. Even if the Damage Waiver option is purchased, you agree that you will be responsible for the full amount of damages to or the loss of the rented Equipment if you fail to comply with all of your obligations under the Terms of Use and Renter Expectations and Terms.
EXCLUSIONS:
A violation of the contract (Terms of Use) shall exist and the Damage Waiver option is void and shall not apply to the following situations:
1. Damage and/or loss was: a) Caused intentionally or as a result of willful and wanton misconduct; b) Occurred outside of the United States; c) A result of Dampness, Dryness or Extremes of Temperature; d) A result of the Renter's or any other party's negligence or recklessness; e) A result of fraud, deceit, scams, voluntary parting, or involuntary loss; f) A result of exposure to Water, Moisture, Sand, Gas, or Dirt; g) Caused by Governmental Action, Hidden or Latent Defect, Rust, Oxidation, Corrosion or Discoloration, Wear and Tear, Mechanical Breakdown, False Pretense, Insects, Vermin or Animals, Processing or Work Upon the Property, and Unauthorized Transfer; h) Caused during the shipment or delivery of rented Equipment (including via postal mail, private carriers, couriers, transit, airplanes, vehicles, buses, trains etc.).
2. Theft of any kind (Theft from Renter, Theft by Employee, etc.).
3. Rental and agreement to the Terms of Use and Renter Expectations and Terms is based on fraudulent or material misrepresentation.
4. Loss of Use.
5. Loss of income, loss of time, or any other loss that is monetized or any other cost that may be incurred by the Owner or Renter.
6. Mysterious disappearance of the rented Equipment (where it is unknown how the rented Equipment was lost).
In those circumstances where exclusions apply, you agree to accept responsibility for damage to, loss or theft of, rented Equipment.
The determination of whether a theft has occurred is at the sole discretion of MedyMate, based on an investigation by law enforcement and MedyMate’s own investigation, which may include contracting investigative services by private investigators and other 3rd parties. All claims of theft require: 1) a copy of a filed police report; 2) confirmation of the police report filing and a criminal investigation by law enforcement; and 3) any information or footage that can help provide details of the theft for MedyMate’s investigation of the claim.
The determination of whether damage is unintentional and not caused due to other circumstances, actions, or inactions, or if it is considered normal wear and tear as described herein, is at the sole discretion of MedyMate.
MedyMate considers any major scratches, scuffs, dents, broken pieces, or other major damage caused unintentionally or accidentally to be damage. Normal wear and tear (including scratches, scuffs, dents, or other less significant damage) is not considered to be damage under the Damage Waiver option, and therefore is not covered by the Damage Waiver option.
If MedyMate determines that the damage was unintentional and coverage under the Damage Waiver option applies, and the Renter elects to utilize the Damage Waiver option, the Renter agrees to pay MedyMate a deductible amount of 12% of the Replacement Value of the Equipment (as provided on the Listing when a Renter requests a rental), which is typically collected when MedyMate reimburses the Owner, and the Renter agrees to be charged the deductible amount, and agrees to MedyMate not refunding deductible amount if the Renter utilizes the Damage Waiver option. Valuation of the Equipment, the cost of replacement of the Equipment (if applicable), the cost of repair of the Equipment (if applicable), and the repair provider who may repair the Equipment (if applicable), is within the sole discretion of MedyMate.
If the Renter damages the Equipment belonging to the Owner unintentionally or accidentally, which is included in the rental, within the Rental Period, the Renter agrees to pay for the repair or replacement of the Owner’s Equipment, up to the amount not covered by the Damage Waiver option (a claimed amount over $6000.00), and/or the entire deductible amount (if applicable).
If the Renter damages, loses, steals, converts, or transfers to a 3rd party, or takes any other action in regards to the Equipment which is not covered under the Damage Waiver option, to the Equipment belonging to the Owner, which is included in the rental, within the Rental Period, the Renter agrees to pay the Equipment Owner or MedyMate (to reimburse the Owner) for the repair or replacement of the Owner’s Equipment. Valuation of the Equipment included in the rental is within the sole discretion of MedyMate.
Renters who purchase the Damage Waiver option must contact MedyMate as soon as the rented Equipment is damaged or lost. MedyMate will conduct an investigation, and at it's sole discretion, conclude whether the Damage Waiver applies. Members and Users agree to authorize MedyMate to conduct and investigation and solely determine if the Damage Waiver option applies. There are no guarantees that a purchaser of a Damage Waiver option will have any costs of repair or replacement of the Owner's Equipment waived, and there are no guarantees that an Owner will be reimbursed for any costs of repair or replacement, or any other costs.
You accept the provisions set forth within this ‘Damage Waiver’ section of the Terms of Use and fully understand your obligations as described in the Terms of Use and Renter Expectations and Terms.
NOTICE: THIS AGREEMENT OFFERS, FOR AN ADDITIONAL CHARGE, A DAMAGE WAIVER OPTION TO COVER YOUR FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ACCIDENTAL DAMAGE TO RENTED EQUIPMENT IN YOUR CARE, CUSTODY AND CONTROL. THE PURCHASE OF THE DAMAGE WAIVER OPTION IS NOT MANDATORY AND MAY BE WAIVED.
Damage Waiver Pro (Damage + Theft)
Renters have the option to purchase a Damage Waiver Pro option for unintentional damage to the rented Equipment (equipment listed in the MedyMate Listing), or theft of the rented Equipment, that they rented, from the start to the end of the Rental Period.
The Damage Waiver Pro option is not an insurance policy. The Damage Waiver Pro option covers unintentional or accidental damage to the rented Equipment, or theft of the rented Equipment from the renter, subject to the Exclusions listed below. The coverage includes the cost to potentially repair or replace the Equipment, up to $20,000.00 (max amount payable by MedyMate to repair or replace the Equipment that is covered by the Damage Waiver Pro option).
By purchasing the Damage Waiver Pro option, you, the Renter of Equipment from an Owner/member on MedyMate, assume all responsibility and will be liable for all damage to, theft of, or loss of the Equipment while rented. In order to reduce your exposure for such damage or theft, MedyMate offers a Damage Waiver Pro option that will reduce (but not eliminate) your responsibility for accidental damage to or theft of the rented Equipment up to the specified limit purchased and/or the listing Replacement Value, as determined by MedyMate. In return for paying the cost of the Damage Waiver Pro option, so long as you fully comply with MedyMate's Terms of Use and Renter Expectations and Terms, MedyMate will be financially responsible for the accidental damage or theft of the rented Equipment, up to the limit purchased and/or the listing replacement value, for the duration of the rental transaction, minus any applicable deductible(s) (which can range, as the deductible is 12% the Replacement Value (as provided on the Listing when a Renter requests a rental) of all the Equipment in the MedyMate Listing).
Any deductible(s) are due to MedyMate or the Owner of the Equipment upon payment of the claim. If the purchaser of the Damage Waiver Pro option does not remit payment of the deductible amount which is due to MedyMate or the Equipment Owner, MedyMate reserves the right and the Renter agrees and authorizes MedyMate to charge the Renter's payment method on the Renter's account or attempt to collect the debt using alternative methods.
The Damage Waiver Pro option will apply to the rental transaction that is was purchased, under the Renter name, Rental Period dates, which may include a rented Equipment limit, any deductibles per claim, Damage Waiver Pro option fees paid, and the date paid.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
The damage limitations set forth below are subject to your compliance with all of your obligations under the Terms of Use and Renter Expectations and Terms. Even if the Damage Waiver Pro option is purchased, you agree that you will be responsible for the full amount of damages to or the loss of the rented Equipment if you fail to comply with all of your obligations under the Terms of Use and Renter Expectations and Terms.

8. Mysterious disappearance of the rented Equipment (where it is unknown how the rented Equipment was lost).
In those circumstances where exclusions apply, you agree to accept responsibility for damage to, loss or theft of, rented Equipment.
The determination of whether a theft has occurred is at the sole discretion of MedyMate, based on an investigation by law enforcement and MedyMate’s own investigation, which may include contracting investigative services by private investigators and other 3rd parties. All claims of theft require: 1) a copy of a filed police report; 2) confirmation of the police report filing and a criminal investigation by law enforcement; and 3) any information or footage that can help provide details of the theft for MedyMate’s investigation of the claim.
MedyMate requires that Renters initiate a claim under their own or an associated 3rd party's insurance policy (homeowner's policy, tenant/renter's policy, equipment policy, etc.) for any damage or theft of the rented Equipment in the Listing. MedyMate also requires that Owner's initiate a claim under their own or an associated 3rd party's insurance policy (homeowner's policy, renter's policy, equipment policy, etc.) for any damage or theft of the rented Equipment in the Listing. If the Renter's , Owner's, or an associated 3rd party's insurance policy reimburses the Owner for a claim related to the claim that is reported to MedyMate under the Damage Waiver Pro coverage (involves the same rented Equipment), MedyMate will subtract the reimbursement amount that is due or remitted to the Owner from any financial responsibility that MedyMate may have to the Owner.
The determination of whether damage is unintentional and not caused due to other circumstances, actions, or inactions, or if it is considered normal wear and tear as described herein, is at the sole discretion of MedyMate.
MedyMate considers any major scratches, scuffs, dents, broken pieces, or other major damage caused unintentionally or accidentally to be damage. Normal wear and tear (including scratches, scuffs, dents, or other less significant damage) is not considered to be damage under the Damage Waiver Pro option, and therefore is not covered by the Damage Waiver Pro option.
If MedyMate determines that the damage was unintentional or there was a theft from the renter, and coverage under the Damage Waiver Pro option applies, and the Renter elects to utilize the Damage Waiver Pro option, the Renter agrees to pay MedyMate a deductible amount of 12% of the Replacement Value of the Equipment (as provided on the Listing when a Renter requests a rental), which is typically collected when MedyMate reimburses the Owner, and the Renter agrees to be charged the deductible amount, and agrees to MedyMate not refunding deductible amount if the Renter utilizes the Damage Waiver Pro option. Valuation of the Equipment, the cost of replacement of the Equipment (if applicable), the cost of repair of the Equipment (if applicable), and the repair provider who may repair the Equipment (if applicable), is within the sole discretion of MedyMate.
If the Renter damages the Equipment belonging to the Owner unintentionally or accidentally, which is included in the rental, within the Rental Period, the Renter agrees to pay for the repair or replacement of the Owner’s Equipment, up to the amount not covered by the MedyMate Damage Waiver Pro option (a claimed amount over $20,000.00), and/or the entire deductible amount (if applicable).
If the Renter damages, loses, steals, converts, or transfers to a 3rd party, or takes any other action in regards to the the Equipment which is not covered under the Damage Waiver Pro option, to the Equipment belonging to the Owner, which is included in the rental, within the Rental Period, the Renter agrees to pay the Equipment Owner or MedyMate (to reimburse the Owner) for the repair or replacement of the Owner’s Equipment. Valuation of the Equipment included in the rental is within the sole discretion of MedyMate.
Renters who purchase the Damage Waiver Pro option must contact MedyMate as soon as the rented Equipment is damaged or lost. MedyMate will conduct an investigation, and at it's sole discretion, conclude whether the Damage Waiver Pro option applies. Members and Users agree to authorize MedyMate to conduct and investigation and solely determine if the Damage Waiver Pro option applies. There are no guarantees that a purchaser of a Damage Waiver Pro option will have any costs of repair or replacement of the Owner's Equipment waived, and there are no guarantees that an Owner will be reimbursed for any costs of repair or replacement, or any other costs.
You accept the provisions set forth within this ‘Damage Waiver Pro’ section of the Terms of Use and fully understand your obligations as described in the Terms of Use and Renter Expectations and Terms.
NOTICE: THIS AGREEMENT OFFERS, FOR AN ADDITIONAL CHARGE, A DAMAGE WAIVER PRO OPTION TO COVER YOUR FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ACCIDENTAL DAMAGE TO RENTED EQUIPMENT IN YOUR CARE, CUSTODY AND CONTROL. THE PURCHASE OF THE DAMAGE WAIVER PRO OPTION IS NOT MANDATORY AND MAY BE WAIVED.
Renters and Equipment
If the Renter damages, loses, steals, converts, or transfers to a 3rd party, or fails to return the Equipment belonging to the Owner, which is included in the rental, within the Rental Period, the Renter agrees to pay for the repair or replacement of the Owner’s Equipment, up to the amount not covered by a Renter's coverage option or insurance policy, and/or the entire deductible amount (if applicable) for the coverage option or insurance policy that covers the Equipment.
MedyMate is not liable for a Member’s deceptive or fraudulent acts, voluntary parting of Equipment, the theft of Equipment, and/or any other loss caused by Member’s deceptive or fraudulent acts and a Member’s use of MedyMate.com, but MedyMate will completely cooperate with the investigation and produce information about the incident and parties involved, working with law enforcement and any insurance companies involved.
If MedyMate receives a cardholder dispute or chargeback for any charges that were authorized by the Renter on MedyMate.com, the Renter agrees to immediately remit payment to MedyMate for the disputed charge amount and a $35.00 fee for each disputed charge. MedyMate will respond to any disputes with any information that indicates that the charge was authorized by the Renter.
Owner Equipment and Rental Listing Prices
MedyMate reserves the right to change the price of an Owner’s Equipment listing. MedyMate does so in order to maintain reasonable rental prices relative to other listing prices, with the intention to increase the likelihood that an Owner will have their Equipment rented by a Renter. If an Owner does not agree with a price change, they have the option of closing their listing at any time, refusing to accept a rental request, or contacting MedyMate to discuss the issue.
Taxes
MedyMate cannot and does not offer Tax-related advice to any Members. Please consult your tax consultant to determine tax treatment for your rental activities and retain all relevant documentation.

"Tax" or "Taxes" mean any sales taxes, value added taxes (VAT), goods and services taxes (GST), or any other taxes that the Owner may be required by law to collect and remit to governmental agencies, and other similar municipal, state, federal and national indirect or other withholding and personal or corporate income taxes.
You understand and agree that you are solely responsible for determining (i) your applicable Tax reporting requirements, and (ii) the Taxes that should be included in a Listing price, and for including Taxes to be collected or obligations relating to applicable Taxes in your Listings.
You understand and acknowledge that appropriate governmental agencies, departments or authorities (the "Tax Authority") where you are located may require Taxes to be collected from Owners and Renters on the amount paid for the right to use of Equipment, and to be remitted to the respective Tax Authority. The laws in jurisdictions may vary, but these taxes may be required to be collected and remitted as a percentage of the actual Listing price (before tax) set by Owners, a set amount per day, or other variations. You are solely responsible for remitting to the relevant authority any Taxes included or received by you.

Disputes (Agreement to Arbitrate)
You and MedyMate agree that any claim or dispute at law or equity that has arisen or may arise between us will be resolved in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section (“Disputes”). Please read this Section carefully. It affects your rights and will impact how claims you and we have against each other are resolved.
Contact MedyMate First: If a dispute arises between you and MedyMate, our goal is to learn about and address your concerns and, if we are unable to do so to your satisfaction, to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. Disputes between you and MedyMate regarding MedyMate may be reported to info{at}MedyMate.com.
Applicable Law: You agree that the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern this Terms of Use and any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and MedyMate, except as otherwise stated in this User Agreement.
Agreement to Arbitrate: You and MedyMate each agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and MedyMate shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate.
Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief: YOU AND MedyMate AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND MedyMate AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S OR PARTY'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER MedyMate USERS OR MEMBERS.
Arbitration Procedures: Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. However, an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual. An arbitrator also must follow the terms of this Terms of Use as a court would. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its rules and procedures, including the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (as applicable), as modified by this Agreement to Arbitrate. The AAA's rules are available at www.adr.org. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the AAA's website at http://www.adr.org. The arbitration shall be held in King County, Washington or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or MedyMate may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on you and MedyMate subject to the arbitrator's discretion to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. Attendance at an in-person hearing may be made by telephone by you and/or MedyMate, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise. The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different MedyMate members or users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same MedyMate member or user to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
Costs of Arbitration: Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement to Arbitrate. In the event the arbitrator determines the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration to be frivolous, you agree to reimburse MedyMate for all fees associated with the arbitration paid by MedyMate on your behalf that you otherwise would be obligated to pay under the AAA's rules.
Severability: With the exception of any of the provisions in any subsection of this Agreement to Arbitrate ("Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief"), if a court decides that any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall still apply. If a court decides that any of the provisions in subsection of this Agreement to Arbitrate ("Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief") is invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall be null and void. The remainder of the Terms of Use, including all other provisions of this section (“Disputes”), will continue to apply.
Opt-Out Procedure: You can choose to reject this Agreement to Arbitrate ("opt out") by mailing us a written opt-out notice ("Opt-Out Notice"). Please email us at info{at}MedyMate.com for the maling address. For new MedyMate members or users, the Opt-Out Notice must be postmarked no later than 30 Days after the date you accept the Terms of Use for the first time. If you are already a current MedyMate member or user and previously accepted the Terms of Use prior to the introduction of this Agreement to Arbitrate, the Opt-Out Notice must be postmarked no later than January 1, 2018. The Opt-Out Notice must state that you do not agree to this Agreement to Arbitrate and must include your name, address, phone number, and the email address(es) used to log in to the MedyMate account(s) to which the opt-out applies. You must sign the Opt-Out Notice for it to be effective. This procedure is the only way you can opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate. If you opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate, all other parts of the Terms of Use, including all other provisions of Section (“Disputes”), will continue to apply. Opting out of this Agreement to Arbitrate has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with us.
Future Changes to the Agreement to Arbitrate: Notwithstanding any provision in the Terms of Use to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make any change to this Agreement to Arbitrate (other than a change to any notice address or website link provided herein) in the future, that change shall not apply to any claim that was filed in a legal proceeding against MedyMate prior to the effective date of the change. Moreover, if we seek to terminate the Agreement to Arbitrate as included in the Terms of Use, any such termination shall not be effective until 30 days after the version of the Terms of Use Agreement not containing the Agreement to Arbitrate is posted to http://www.MedyMate.com, and shall not be effective as to any claim that was filed in a legal proceeding against MedyMate prior to the effective date of termination.
Insolvency Proceedings: If any proceeding by or against you is commenced under any provision of the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or under any other bankruptcy or insolvency law, MedyMate will be entitled to recover all reasonable costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement.
No Waiver: Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.
Indemnification: You agree to defend, indemnify and hold MedyMate, our parent, our subsidiaries, Affiliates and the officers, directors, agents, joint venturers, employees and suppliers of MedyMate, our parent, subsidiaries, or our Affiliates, harmless from any claim or demand (including attorneys’ fees) made or incurred by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of this Terms of Use, your improper use of the MedyMate, and/or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.
Assumption of Rights: If MedyMate pays out a claim, reversal or chargeback that you file against another MedyMate user or member, you agree that MedyMate assumes your rights against the recipient and third parties related to the payment, and may pursue those rights directly or on your behalf, in MedyMate’s discretion.
Release of MedyMate: If you have a dispute with one or more MedyMate member or users, you release MedyMate (and our parent, our subsidiaries, our Affiliates, and our and their respective officers, directors, agents, joint ventures, employees and suppliers) from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes. In entering into this release you expressly waive any protections (whether statutory or otherwise – e.g., California Civil Code § 1542) that would otherwise limit the coverage of this release to include only those claims which you may know or suspect to exist in your favor at the time of agreeing to this release.
