OPTION. For and in consideration of $10.00 paid by RBI to Petri and the other terms of this Agreement, RBI grants to Petri the option to acquire the Petri Property from RBI; but as of the date of this option, RBI does not own the Petri Property and this option depends on RBI first acquiring the Petri Property from the Seneca Nation of Indians. When RBI acquires the Petri Property, RBI will deliver to Petri a written notice and when Petri receives this written notice, Petri may then send a written notice to RBI stating that Petri will acquire the Petri Property. This notice will not be effective and Petri's option to purchase the Petri Property will not be effective and will be void if Petri does not exercise his option within 120 days after RBI sends the written notice described above to Petri.

RELEASE AND HOLD HARMLESS. Petri forever releases and waives any and all claims against RBI and will dismiss the lawsuit filed by Petri against RBI; and Petri will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless RBI from all claims, actions, causes of action, proceedings, orders, judgments, decisions, liens, collection actions, now known or unknown arising out of, from or as a result of the matters referenced in the Agreement.
