Nothings contained in the foregoing shall be, or shall be deemed to constitute, a release by Stojda to enforce his rights under the Summary or to enforce his rights under this Agreement or the Employment Agreement (as defined in the Summary) if the Summary or this Agreement are breached and such breach is not cured in accordance with the Summary, or to pursue his rights as a stockholder of Splinex for future acts or omissions, or his right to any vested benefit under any plan governed by ERISA.
