I admit that this Release satisfies the requirements of 29 U.S.C. &#167; 626(f). I also acknowledge and agree that I have read and understand the terms of this Release. I represent that I have been advised in writing by this Release to consult with an attorney of my choosing regarding the waiver of rights and claims under the ADEA. I also acknowledge that I have obtained and considered such legal counsel as I deem necessary, such that I am entering into this Release freely, knowingly, and voluntarily. I agree that in return for this Release I will receive consideration beyond that which I was already entitled before executing this Release. I was informed that I had not less than twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Release and that if I wished to execute this Release prior to the expiration of such 21-day period I will have done so voluntarily and with full knowledge that I am waiving my right to have twenty-one (21) days to consider this Release&#59; and that such twenty-one (21) day period to consider this Release would not and will not be re-started or extended based on any changes, whether material or immaterial, that are or were made to this Release in such twenty-one (21) day period after I received it.  I was informed that I had seven (7) days following the date of execution of this Release in which to revoke this Release, and this Release will become null and void if I elect revocation during that time. Any revocation must be in writing and must be received by the Company during the seven-day revocation period. In the event that I exercises this revocation right, neither the Company nor I will have any obligation under this Release. To revoke, I understand that I must send a written notice of revocation to the Company (Evolus, Inc., 520 Newport Center Dr., Suite 1200, Newport Beach, California 92660, Attention&#58; General Counsel) so that it is received within the seven-day period following execution of this Release by me.  Nothing in this Release prevents or precludes me from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of this waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized by federal law.  I further understand I am not waiving any right or claim under the ADEA that may arise after the effective date of this Release.</font></div><div style="height:52.56pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-align:center"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">A-2</font></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div style="min-height:72pt;width:100%"><div><font><br></font></div><div><font><br></font></div></div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;padding-right:5.76pt;text-indent:36pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">3.&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;I understand and agree that all of my rights under California Civil Code Section 1542 are expressly waived.
