Item 1.01. Entry info a Material Definitive Agreement
In September 2011, the Board of Directors of Vectren Corporation (the Company) approved a form of indemnification agreement (the “Indemnification Agreement”) to be entered into by the Company with each of its directors and executive officers. The indemnification agreements generally require the Company to indemnify and hold such persons harmless to the greatest extent permitted by law for liabilities arising out of such person’s service to the Company as a director or executive officer, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, with respect to criminal proceedings, if the person had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. In addition, the Indemnification agreement provides for the Company to make advance payment of expenses to the indemnitee for attorney fees and/or court costs in connection with any proceeding relating to any fact or occurrence arising from or relating to events or occurrences specified in the Indemnification Agreement, provided such person certifies he or she believes in good faith that the standard of conduct justifying advancement has been met, and he or she provides an undertaking agreeing to repay such advancement if there is an adjudication it was unjustified.
The foregoing description of the Indemnification Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of the Indemnification Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K.
