RELEASE
9. Effective upon execution of this Settlement Agreement and full payment of the
amount due under Paragraph 8 above, the State AGs release and discharge the NFL, each of its
member clubs, and each of their respective owners, officers, employees, agents, successors,
merged or acquired entities, parent or controlling entities, subsidiaries, and affiliates, from any
all claims, suits, demands, damages, judgments, restitution, penalties, fines, actions and other
causes of action that the State AGs could have brought under federal, state, or local antitrust,
unfair competition, unfair practices, deceptive trade practices, price discrimination, unitary
pricing, trade practice, consumer or business protection, fraud protection or racketeering law,
civil conspiracy law, or similar law or requirement, whether based on statute, common law,
regulation, ordinance or otherwise of any jurisdiction within the United States arising out of the
League-wide Ticket Exchange Price Floor (through the date of execution of the Settlement
Agreement). Nothing contained in this Paragraph shall be construed to limit the ability of the
State AGs to enforce the obligations that the NFL and its officers, agents, and employees acting
on its behalf, have under this Settlement Agreement.
MISCELLANEOUS
10. The State AGs have agreed to the terms of this Settlement Agreement based on,
among other things, representations made to the State AGs by the NFL and the Investigated
Clubs. To the extent that any material representations made by the NFL or the Investigated Clubs
are later reasonably found to have been designed to mislead, this Settlement Agreement is
voidable by the State AGs, individually or collectively, in their sole discretion. In such case, the
Release provided herein would be forfeited.
