Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 13, 2013, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of CTI Group (Holdings) Inc. (the "Company") approved a form of indemnification agreement for directors (the "Director Indemnification Agreement") and a form of indemnification agreement for officers (the "Officer Indemnification Agreement," together with the Director Indemnification Agreement, the "Indemnification Agreements") in substantially identical form. On July 16, 2013, the Company entered into Director Indemnification Agreements with the following directors: John Birbeck, Bengt Dahl, Harold D. Garrison, Thomas W. Grein, Salah N. Osseiran and Michael J. Reinarts, and an Officer Indemnification Agreement with Manfred Hanuschek. The Indemnification Agreements are based on a determination by the Board that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders that the Company facilitate its ability to attract and retain highly competent individuals to serve as directors and officers by contractually obligating itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on behalf of, directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware ("DGCL") so that directors and officers will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be indemnified. The Company anticipates that it will enter into substantially similar Indemnification Agreements with any new directors or executive officers.
The Indemnification Agreements generally provide, among other things, for mandatory indemnification of the director or officer (the "Indemnitee") to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL against all expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any proceeding in which the Indemnitee is involved because the Indemnitee is or was a director or officer, as applicable, of the Company, by reason of any action taken by him (or a failure to take action by him) or of any action (or failure to act) on his part while acting pursuant to his status as a director or officer, as applicable, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the Company, and with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Subject to certain limitations, the Indemnification Agreements provide for the advancement of expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any proceeding not initiated by the Indemnitee, and the repayment to the Company of the amounts advanced to the extent that it is ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.
The Indemnification Agreements do not exclude any other rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses to which the Indemnitee may be entitled under applicable law, the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.
The foregoing description of the Indemnification Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the forms of Indemnification Agreements attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, which are incorporated herein by reference.
