By signing this Agreement, I am providing a complete waiver of all claims against the Company Released Parties that may have arisen, whether known or unknown to me, up until the effective date of this Agreement.  This includes, but is not limited to, claims against any Company Released Party:

(c)For harassment of, or discrimination or retaliation against me on the basis of age, race, color, sex, national origin, ancestry, disability, religion, sexual orientation, marital status, parental status, source of income, entitlement to benefits, or any union activities, in violation of any local, state, or federal law or regulation;

(d)For violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, 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 (“ADEA”), as amended, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Rehabilitation Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, or any other federal or state statute or local ordinance pertaining to discrimination in employment or the termination of employment;

(e)For libel, slander, defamation, invasion of privacy, negligent or intentional infliction of emotional distress, or violation of any common law duty to me; and

(f)For failure to pay wages, salary, overtime, bonus, earned vacation, severance pay, or other compensation of any type.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and I agree that this General Release does not release or waive my right or claim to any of the following:

(a)Any payment or benefit set forth in this Agreement;

(b)Reimbursement of unreimbursed business expenses properly incurred prior to the Separation Date in accordance with the policy of the Atkore Group;

2

(c)Vested benefits (other than severance pay or termination benefits) under the general employee benefit plans of the Atkore Group and the Tyco Group in which I participate;

(d)Any claim for unemployment compensation or workers’ compensation administered by a state government to which I am presently or may become entitled;

(e)Any claim based upon events that occur after the Separation Date; and

(f)Any claim that the Company has breached this Agreement.

I further agree, promise, and covenant that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, neither I, nor any person, organization, or other entity acting on my behalf has filed or will file, charge, claim, sue, or cause or permit to be filed, charged, or claimed, any action for damages or other relief (including injunctive, declaratory, monetary, or other relief) against the Company Released Parties involving any matter occurring in the past, or involving or based upon any claims, demands, causes of action, obligations, damages, or liabilities, in each case which are subject to this General Release.  This General Release shall not affect my rights under the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act to have a judicial determination of the validity of this General Release and does not purport to limit any right I may have to file a charge under the ADEA or other civil rights statute, or to participate in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or other investigative agency.  This General Release does, however, waive and release any right to recover damages in any proceeding under the ADEA or other civil rights statute.

I have been given twenty-one (21) days to review this General Release and have been given the opportunity to consult with legal counsel, and I am signing this Agreement knowingly, voluntarily, and with full understanding of its terms and effects, and I voluntarily accept the severance benefits provided for herein for the purpose of making full and final settlement of all claims referred to above.  If I have signed this Agreement prior to the expiration of the twenty-one (21) day period, I have done so voluntarily.  I also understand that I have seven (7) days after executing this Agreement to revoke this General Release, and that this General Release shall not become effective if I exercise my right to revoke my signature within seven (7) days of execution.  If I elect to revoke this General Release during the revocation period, this Agreement shall be void and of no effect in its entirety.  However, I understand that the termination of my employment shall still be effective.
