it may have under Civil Code Section 1542 and all other

against the other party with respect to the Lease and the Premises

such waiver and relinquishment, Landlord and Tenant each
acknowledges that it is aware that it may hereafter discover facts

fully, finally and forever settle and release all such claims,
known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which may now exist or
which have previously existed between Landlord and Tenant with
