There is a newer version of the Maryland Code
Maryland Courts and Judicial Proceedings Section 3-1405
§ 3-1405.
  A release by the injured person of one joint tort-feasor does not relieve the joint tort-feasor from liability to make contribution to another joint tort-feasor unless the release:
    (1)   Is given before the right of the other tort-feasor to secure a money judgment for contribution has accrued; and
    (2)   Provides for a reduction, to the extent of the pro rata share of the released tort-feasor, of the injured person's damages recoverable against all other tort-feasors.
