About this file
This is a Department of Transportation Contractor's Release form (DOT F 4220.4, Rev. 5/05), which is a template document used to formally discharge contractors from liabilities upon contract completion.
The form serves as a legal release in which a contractor remises, releases, and discharges the United States Government, its officers, agents, and employees from all liabilities, obligations, claims, and demands arising from a completed contract upon receipt of stated payment. The form requires entry of the contractor name and address, contract number, and the total sum of amounts paid and payable. The release contains three specified exceptions: (1) any stated or estimated claims identified by the contractor; (2) claims based on the contractor's liabilities to third parties arising from contract performance that were unknown at execution, provided written notice is given to the Contracting Officer within the contract-specified period; and (3) claims for reimbursement of costs incurred under contract provisions relating to patents, excluding expenses from the contractor's indemnification of the Government against patent liability. The contractor must comply with all contract provisions related to patent matters and claims defense or prosecution. The form requires signature and date, and for corporate entities, must include a certification statement from the corporation's secretary attesting to the signatory's authority and the release's validity. Witnesses are not required for corporate signatories but are needed for individual contractors.
