EXHIBIT F - RELEASE OF CLAIMS.pdf

This is a Release of Claims exhibit form used by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) as part of contract administration. The form serves as a legal instrument through which a contractor formally releases and discharges LACMTA, its officers, directors, agents, employees, and authorized representatives from all liabilities, obligations, claims, and demands arising from or under the contract. The release is executed in consideration of monies paid to the contractor under the contract terms, with the understanding that such payment constitutes full and final compensation for amounts due, exclusive of any specifically reserved claims that may be noted on the form with LACMTA's concurrence.

The document includes provisions for contractor identification, contract number insertion, and date execution. For corporate contractors, a certification section must be completed by an authorized corporate officer attesting that the signatory who executed the release was duly authorized by the corporation's governing body and acted within the scope of the corporation's powers. The form includes designated fields for the contractor name, contract number, project name, attestor name and title, and signatory name and title, with space provided for a corporate seal. This exhibit represents a standard contract closeout or payment release mechanism designed to protect LACMTA from future claims while allowing contractors to reserve specific claims through mutual agreement prior to execution.
