To the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, a director or officer of the corporation shall not be liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, as applicable, except for liability of (i) a director or officer for any breach of the director’s or officer’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) a director or officer for acts of omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) a director under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or hereafter may be amended, or (iv) a director or officer for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit, or (v) an officer in any action by or in the right of the corporation. If the Delaware General Corporation Law hereafter is amended to authorize the further elimination or limitation of the liability of directors or officers, then the liability of a director or officer of the corporation, in addition to the limitation on personal liability provided herein, shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by the amended Delaware General Corporation Law. No amendment, modification or repeal of this Article SEVENTH, or the adoption of any provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article SEVENTH, shall adversely affect any right or protection of a director that exists at the time of such amendment, modification, repeal or adoption.”
