EXHIBIT A

GENERAL RELEASE AND WAIVER OF CLAIMS

In consideration of the payment by Remington Arms Company, Inc. (“Remington”) of the severance and other benefits to me as set forth in Sections B and F of the Agreement to which this GENERAL RELEASE AND WAIVER OF CLAIMS (this “Release”) is attached as Exhibit A, I, PAUL A. MILLER, agree to and do finally and completely release and forever discharge Remington, and its direct and indirect parents (including Freedom Group, Inc. and Cerberus Capital Management, L.P.) and its/their subsidiaries and its/their affiliates, and its/their respective officers, members, managers, directors, partners, shareholders, investors, principals, executives, consultants, employees and agents, and any of their respective predecessors and successors in interest and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”) from any and all liabilities, claims, obligations, demands, and causes of action of any and every kind or nature whatsoever, in law, equity or otherwise, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, which I now have, own or hold or claim to have, own or hold, against each or any of the Releasees or arising from and/or relating to my employment with Remington and any of the other Releasees and termination of that employment.

This Release includes, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) claims arising under any provision of federal, state, or local law, any federal, state or local anti-discrimination statute, ordinance or regulation, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), the Americans with Disabilities Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991 and the Civil Rights Act of 1866, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the New York State Human Rights Law, and the New York Labor Laws, and the North Carolina Equal Employment Practices Act and the North Carolina Labor Laws, the Virginia Human Rights Act and the Virginia Labor Laws, and any other similar state or local employment law (if and to the extent applicable and as any of the foregoing may be amended from time to time), and any similar federal, state, or local statutes, ordinances or regulations, or claims in the nature of a breach of contract, claims for wrongful discharge, emotional distress, defamation, fraud or breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, tort and wage or benefit claims (other than the payments to which I am entitled under the Employment Agreement); (b) my waiver of all rights to post-termination benefits, and (c) my waiver of any claims to other severance or termination payments or benefits.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Release does not include actions brought by me (or my personal representative) to enforce any rights I have (a) under the Agreement, (b) to secure vested benefits under any other employee benefit plan of Remington of which I am a participant except as otherwise released in accordance with the preceding paragraph, (c) to seek indemnification under the Remington’s bylaws or other corporate governance documents, or (d) to seek worker’s compensation or unemployment compensation benefits. This Release also does not apply to any rights or claims that I might have which arise as a result of any conduct that occurs after the date this Release is signed by me. If I violate the terms of this Release, I agree to pay the Releasees’ costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

I acknowledge that, among other rights subject to this Release, I am hereby waiving and releasing any rights I may have under the ADEA, that this Release is knowing and voluntary, and that the consideration given for this Release is in addition to anything of value to which I was already entitled as an employee of Remington.

I acknowledge that I may hereafter discover claims or facts in addition to or different from those which I now know or believe to exist with respect to the subject matter of this Release and which, if known or suspected at the time of executing this Release, may have materially affected this Release or my decision to execute this Release. Nevertheless, I hereby waive any right, claim or cause of action that might arise as a result of such different or additional claims or facts.

I agree that if any court or governmental agency assumes jurisdiction over any claim, demand, charge, complaint, lawsuit or other legal action that, in whole or in part, pertains to my employment or the cessation thereof, I shall not be entitled to any monetary or other benefit that results from such claim, demand, charge, complaint or lawsuit, except as otherwise expressly required by applicable law.

By signing the Agreement and this Release, I am acknowledging that no further payments or other compensation or benefits, other than as provided in the Agreement, are due to me thereunder or hereunder.

As provided by law, I have been advised in the Agreement to carefully consider the matters outlined in the Agreement and this Release and to consult with such professional advisors as I deem appropriate, including a lawyer of my own choice. I acknowledge that I have had at least twenty-one (21) days from receipt of this Release to consider the terms and conditions set forth herein, and I understand that I have a period of seven (7) days following my execution of this Release to revoke my signature, in which event this Release shall not be effective or binding on the parties, and I will not receive the payments or benefits described in Sections B and F of the Agreement. I understand fully and acknowledge the terms and consequences of this Release, and I voluntarily accept them.

ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED TO,

INTENDING TO BE LEGALLY BOUND HEREBY:
