No you should not sign it. Never sign away your rights to anything with out being compensated.

You were not paid for the work you put into a non trivial piece of software. If your co-founder is serious about continuing with the company and wants to use what you wrote she really only has two options. 1) suck it up and give you a serious equity stake. 2) license it from you where you make a % of sales or a fixed amount per install. She does have a 3rd option to use your software and gamble that the company is never successful enough for you to sue her for an obscene amount money.
