The parties have made customary representations and warranties and covenants in the Purchase Agreement, including without limitation covenants that limit Cubic’s and its affiliates’ ability to engage in certain U.S. government-related services work not related to the products of Cubic and its affiliates for the five years following the closing of the Acquisition. The parties have also agreed to mutually indemnify each other for breaches of representations and warranties and covenants, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The Purchaser has obtained “representation and warranty” insurance which will provide coverage for breaches of representations and warranties of Cubic and the Services Subsidiaries contained in the Purchase Agreement, subject to deductibles, exclusions, policy limits and certain other terms and conditions.

The Purchase Agreement was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to Cubic’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 19, 2018.The description of the terms of the Purchase Agreement contained in this Form 8-K is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual provisions of the Purchase Agreement.In addition, the representations and warranties of Cubic, including the Services Subsidiaries, contained in the Purchase Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of Purchaser.
