<br />6.1 Indemnities. Each Party ("Indemnifying Party") agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold
<br />harmless the other Party and its parents, subsidiaries, and Service Partners from and against any
<br />and all third -party claims, demands, suits, legal proceedings, and causes of action that arise out
<br />of or relate to any breach by the Indemnifying Party of any of its representations and warranties
<br />as stated in this Agreement (collectively, "Indemnifiable Claims') or the Indemnifying Party's gross
<br />negligence or willful misconduct in performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including
<br />but not limited to all damages, costs, expenses, reasonable attorneys' fees, judgments, and

<br />notice to the Indemnifying Party of any Indemnifiable Claim for which indemnification will be

<br />Indemnifiable Claims with counsel of its choosing. The Party seeking indemnification will
<br />cooperate with the Indemnifying Party's defense against the Indemnifiable Claims. If any

<br />the covered portion.
