which to him or her may seem advisable. Wife and Husband shall not molest, harass, disturb or
malign each other or the respective families of each other at all times and at all locations,

WAIVER OF RIGHTS AND MUTUAL RELEASES
Except as otherwise expressly provided by this Agreement:
(a) Each party hereby absolutely and unconditionally releases and forever discharges the
other and the estate of the other for all purposes from any and all rights and obligations which
either may have or at any time hereafter have for past, present or future support or maintenance,
alimony pendente lite, alimony, equitable distribution, counsel fees, costs, expenses and any
other right or obligation, economic or otherwise, whether arising out of the marital relationship

effective regardless of whether such claims arise out of any former or future acts, contracts,
engagements or liabilities of the other or by way of dower, curtesy, widow's rights, family
exemption or similar allowance, or under the intestate laws, or the fight to take against the
spouse's will, or the right to treat a lifetime conveyance by the other as testamentary, or all other

laws of Pennsylvania, any state, commonwealth or territory of the United States, or any other

the beneficiary designation was made prior or subsequent to execution hereof), nor to defeat the
right of either party to receive any legacy, bequest or residuary portion of the other's estate under
