The Company, GRI, Cubic, and the Holders may be referred to herein individually as a "Party" and together as the "Parties."
Each of the undersigned acknowledges that the Parties are expressly relying on this Indemnification and Release in consummating the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and would not consummate such transactions but for this Indemnification and Release.
Each of the undersigned, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, intending to be legally bound, hereby jointly and severally agrees as follows:
1. Indemnification.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify GRI and Cubic, and hold them harmless from and in respect of any assessment, loss, damage, liability, cost and expense (including, without limitation, interest, penalties, and reasonable attorneys’ fees) imposed upon or incurred by GRI and Cubic resulting from (i) any breach of representation or warranty, in any material respect, made by the Company in the Transaction Documents, and (ii) any breach by the Company of any covenant, obligation or other agreement made by the Company in the Transaction Documents. Assertion by a Party of its rights to indemnification under this Section 1 shall not preclude any other rights or remedies of the Party in respect thereof.

Assertion by a Party of its rights to indemnification under this Section 1 shall not preclude any other rights or remedies of the Party in respect thereof.
(c) Cubic agrees to indemnify GRI and the Company, and hold them harmless from and in respect of any assessment, loss, damage, liability, cost and expense (including, without limitation, interest, penalties, and reasonable attorneys’ fees) imposed upon or incurred by GRI or the Company resulting from (i) any breach of representation or warranty, in any material respect, made by Cubic in the Transaction Documents, and (ii) any breach by Cubic of any covenant, obligation or other agreement made by Cubic in the Transaction Documents. Assertion by a Party of its rights to indemnification under this Section 1 shall not preclude any other rights or remedies of the Party in respect thereof.
(c) The Holders, severally and not jointly, agree to indemnify the Company, and hold it harmless from and in respect of any assessment, loss, damage, liability, cost and expense (including, without limitation, interest, penalties, and reasonable attorneys’ fees) imposed upon or incurred by the Company resulting from any breach of representation or warranty, in any material respect, made by such Holder in the Transaction Documents. Assertion by a Party of its rights to indemnification under this Section 1 shall not preclude any other rights or remedies of the Party in respect thereof.
(d) GRI agrees to indemnify Cubic, and hold it harmless from and in respect of any assessment, loss, damage, liability, cost and expense (including, without limitation, interest, penalties, and reasonable attorneys’ fees) imposed upon or incurred by Cubic resulting from (i) any breach of representation or warranty, in any material respect, made by GRI in the Transaction Documents, and (ii) any breach by GRI of any covenant, obligation or other agreement made by GRI in the Transaction Documents. Assertion by a Party of its rights to indemnification under this Section 1 shall not preclude any other rights or remedies of the Party in respect thereof.
(e) If any claim, action or proceeding is brought against a Party arising out of a claim that is the subject of indemnification under the Transaction Documents (“Indemnified Party”), the Indemnified Party shall provide the other party (“Indemnifying Party”) prompt written notice of the same, together with the basis for seeking indemnification (the “Indemnification Notice”). Upon receipt of an Indemnification Notice by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall inform the Indemnified Party (delivering the Indemnification Notice), within 5 business days after receipt of the Indemnification Notice, whether the Indemnifying Party elects to compromise or defend such claim, action or proceeding. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its option, to compromise the claim, at its own expense. In the event the Indemnifying Party elects to defend, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control the defense of any claim brought against him or her that is the subject of this indemnification. All costs and expenses incurred, including legal fees, in connection with the compromise or defense of any claim in which the breach by an Indemnifying Party was the cause of the loss shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party.
