other manner as may be determined by the stockholders present in person or by

INDEMNIFICATION



Section 5.1. Actions by Others. The Corporation (1) shall indemnify any

person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any

threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,


 

criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the

right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a

Director or an officer of the Corporation and (2) except as otherwise required

by Section 5.3 of this Article, may indemnify any person who was or is a party

or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed

action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or

investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by

reason of the fact that he or she is or was an employee or agent of the

Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a

Director, officer, employee, agent of or participant in another corporation,

partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses

(including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts actually and

reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or

proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably

believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and

with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to

believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or

proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo

contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that

the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person

reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the

Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had

reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.



Section 5.2. Actions by or in the Right of the Corporation. The

Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to

be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in

the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the

fact that he or she is or was a Director, officer, employee or agent of the

Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a

Director, officer, employee, agent of or participant in another corporation,

partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses

(including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in

connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she

acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or

not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and except that no

indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to

which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for gross negligence or

misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the Corporation unless and

only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which

such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite

the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case,

such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses

which the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.



Section 5.3. Successful Defense. To the extent that it is determined by

a final judicial determination that a person who is or was a Director, officer,

employee or agent of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or

otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section

5.1 or Section 5.2 of this Article, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter

therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys'

fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith.



Section 5.4. Specific Authorization. Any indemnification under Section

5.1 or Section 5.2 of this Article (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by

the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination

that indemnification of the Director, officer, employee or agent is proper in

the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct

set forth in said Sections 5.1 and 5.2. Such determination shall be made (1) by

the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Directors

who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (2) if such a quorum

is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested Directors so


 

directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3) by the

stockholders.



Section 5.5. Advance of Expenses. Expenses incurred by any person who

may have a right of indemnification under this Article in defending a civil or

criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of

the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding as authorized by the

Board of Directors in the specific case upon receipt of an undertaking by or on

behalf of the Director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount if it

shall ultimately be finally judicially determined that he or she is not entitled

to be indemnified by the Corporation pursuant to this Article.



Section 5.6. Right of Indemnity Not Exclusive. The indemnification

provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to

which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any by-law, agreement,

vote of stockholders or disinterested Directors or otherwise, both as to action

in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while

holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a

Director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the

heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.



Section 5.7. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain

insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Director, officer, employee or

agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation

as a Director, officer, employee or agent of or participant in another

corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any

liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such

capacity, or arising out of such person's status as such, whether or not the

Corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability

under the provisions of this Article, Section 145 of the General Corporation Law

of the State of Delaware or otherwise.

resignation or otherwise, before such certificate or certificates shall have

shall be transferred only upon the books of the Corporation by the holder

thereof in person or by his or her attorney, upon surrender for cancellation of

date, not less than ten nor more than sixty days preceding the date of any

meeting of stockholders, or the date for the payment of any dividend, or the

date for the distribution or allotment of any rights, or the date when any

change, conversion or exchange of capital stock shall go into effect, as a

record date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to notice of, and

to vote at, any such meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any such

dividend, or to receive any distribution or allotment of such rights, or to

exercise the rights in respect of any such change, conversion or exchange of

capital stock, and in such case only such stockholders as shall be stockholders

of record on the date so fixed shall be entitled to such notice of, and to vote

at, such meeting, or to receive payment of such dividend, or to receive such

distribution or allotment or rights or to exercise such rights, as the case may

be, notwithstanding any transfer of any stock on the books of the Corporation

after any such record date fixed as aforesaid.



A determination of stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a

stockholders' meeting is effective for any adjournment of the meeting unless the

Board of Directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting, which it

must do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than 120 days after the date

fixed for the original meeting.



Section 6.4. Lost Certificates. In the event that any certificate of

stock is lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, the Board of Directors may

authorize the issuance of a new certificate of the same tenor and for the same

issuance of such new certificate, require the owner of the lost, stolen,

destroyed or mutilated certificate, or the legal representative of the owner to

make an affidavit or affirmation setting forth such facts as to the loss,
