A company force me to sign a form. Should I sign the form?

I bought a HP computer. The computer is in a very bad quality. It broken one month after passing its warranty period. I joint a group law suite. The result is that Nvidia needs to replace a new computer for me. Here's the web site www.nvidiasettlement.com. After I followed their rules to send the old computer back to them, they want me to sign a form in order to ship the new computer to me. The form looks like having some legal issue. I post it here for asking helps on what I should do. Should I sign the form? If I do not sign the form, they will not ship the computer to me.

1. The person's name listed on the form is not the same as my name. Even the last name is the same but the first name is completely different. Can it be treated as the same person?

2. The last section of the form

"We agree to indemnify Avnet for all liabilities, penalties, losses, damages, costs or expenses that may be imposed on or incurred by Avnet in connection with any violation of U.S. export laws and regulations on our part that relates to Avnets products."

has nothing to do with verifying a name. Is that legal to have this section for people to sign? It looks like with those words, they can do anything on me as they want. Is my understanding right? 

Appreciate for any comments.

Here's the form:

To: Avnet, Inc.
