I specifically and explicitly release, indemnify and hold harmless the Released Parties (defined above) from all liability, claims, demands, actions or rights of action, or damages of any kind including but not limited to those arising out of or relating to any one or more of the Released Parties’ own sole, contributory and/or comparative negligence.
