of ACAS (each, an ACAS entity), may engage in, and are permitted to have, investments or other
business relationships, ventures, agreements or arrangements with entities engaged in, the same or
similar activities or lines of business, and in recognition of (a) the benefits to be derived by
the Corporation through the continued service of such officers and directors, and (b) the
difficulties attendant to any director, who desires and endeavors fully to satisfy such directors
fiduciary duties, in determining the full scope of such duties in any particular situation, the
provisions of this ARTICLE NINTH are set forth to regulate, define and guide the conduct of certain
affairs of the Corporation as they may involve such officers and directors, ACAS and ACAS entities
and the powers, rights, duties and liabilities of the Corporation and its officers and directors,
ACAS and ACAS entities in connection therewith.
(2) If a director or officer of the Corporation who is also a director, officer, manager,
employee or other representative of ACAS or an ACAS entity acquires knowledge of a potential
transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for the Corporation, such director or

Corporation, (ii) shall be deemed to have fully satisfied and fulfilled the fiduciary duty of such
director or officer to the Corporation and its stockholders with respect to such corporate
opportunity, (iii) shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for breach of any

corporate opportunity for itself or directs such corporate opportunity to another person
(including, without limitation, any stockholder of the Corporation and its affiliates) or does not
communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Corporation, (iv) shall be
deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner
4
such director or officer reasonably believes to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Corporation, and (v) shall be deemed not to have breached his or her duty of loyalty to the
Corporation or its stockholders and not to have derived an improper benefit therefrom, if such
director or officer acts in a manner consistent with the following policy:
1. A corporate opportunity available to any individual who is an officer of the Corporation
(whether or not a director), and who is also a director but not an officer of ACAS or an ACAS
Entity, shall belong to the Corporation, unless such corporate opportunity is expressly offered to
such individual in writing solely in his or her capacity as a director of ACAS or an ACAS Entity,
in which case such corporate opportunity shall belong to ACAS or an ACAS Entity;
2. A corporate opportunity available to any individual who is a director but not an officer of
the Corporation, and who is also an officer, manager, employee or other representative (whether or
not a director) of ACAS or an ACAS Entity shall belong to the Corporation if such corporate
opportunity is expressly offered to such individual in writing solely in his or her capacity as a
director of the Corporation, and otherwise shall belong to ACAS or an ACAS Entity; and
3. A corporate opportunity available to any individual who is an officer or director of both
the Corporation and ACAS or an ACAS Entity shall belong to the Corporation if such corporate
opportunity is expressly offered to such individual in writing solely in his or her capacity as an
officer or director of the Corporation, and otherwise shall belong to ACAS or an ACAS Entity.
(3) Except as ACAS may otherwise agree in writing, ACAS and any ACAS entities shall have
the right to, and shall have no duty hereunder to refrain from, engaging in the same or similar

customer or supplier of the Corporation, or employing or otherwise engaging any officer or
employee of the Corporation. To the fullest extent permitted by law, ACAS and any ACAS entities
(including any director, officer, manager, employee or other representative of ACAS or an ACAS
Entity) shall not be liable to the Corporation or its other stockholders for breach of any
fiduciary duty by reason of any such activities of ACAS or an ACAS entity, or the participation
therein of ACAS or an ACAS entity. In the event that ACAS or an ACAS entity acquires knowledge
of a potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both ACAS or an
ACAS entity and the Corporation, ACAS and any ACAS entities shall have no duty to communicate
present, or offer such corporate opportunity to the Corporation and shall not be liable to the
Corporation or its other stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder of the
Corporation by reason of the fact that ACAS or an ACAS entity pursues or acquires such
corporation opportunity for itself, directs such
5
corporate opportunity to another person, or does not communicate information regarding such
corporate opportunity to the Corporation.

completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by
reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or is or was
serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation,

for the purpose of providing for such indemnification upon receipt by the Corporation of a written
undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amounts if it shall

Corporation against such amounts. The right to indemnification conferred in this ARTICLE TENTH
shall be a contractual right.
