INDEMNIFICATION

Section 1. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. To the fullest extent authorized or permitted by law, the Corporation shall indemnify any person (“Indemnified Person”) made, or threatened to be made, a party to any action or proceeding, whether civil, at law, in equity, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise, including any action by or in the right of the Corporation, by reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate (“Responsible Person”), whether before or after adoption of this Article (a) is or was a director, or officer of the Corporation, or (b) if a director or officer of the Corporation, is serving or served, in any capacity, at the request of the Corporation, any other corporation, or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, or (c) if not a director or officer of the Corporation, is serving or served, at the request of the Corporation, as a director or officer of any other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against all judgments, fines, penalties, amounts paid in settlement (provided the Corporation shall have consented to such settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by it) and reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation, incurred by such Indemnified Person with respect to any such threatened or actual action or proceeding, and any appeal therein, provided only that (x) acts of the Responsible Person which were material to the cause of action so adjudicated or otherwise disposed of were not (i) committed in bad faith or (ii) were not the result of active and deliberate dishonesty, and (y) the Responsible Person did not personally gain in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally entitled.

Section 2. Advancement of Expenses. All expenses reasonably incurred by an Indemnified Person in connection with a threatened or actual action or proceeding with respect to which such person is or may be entitled to indemnification under this Article shall be advanced or promptly reimbursed by the Corporation to him in advance of the final disposition of such action or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by him or on his behalf to repay the amount of such advances, if any, as to which he is ultimately found not to be entitled to indemnification or, where indemnification is granted, to the extent such advances exceed the indemnification to which he is entitled.

Section 3. Procedure for Indemnification.

(a) Not later than thirty (30) days following final disposition of an action or proceeding with respect to which the Corporation has received written request by an Indemnified Person for indemnification pursuant to this Article, if such indemnification has not been ordered by a court, the Board of Directors shall meet and find whether the Responsible Person met the standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 of this Article, and, if it finds that he did, or to the extent it so finds, shall authorize such indemnification.

-10-

(b) Such standard shall be found to have been met unless (i) a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the Indemnified Person establishes that (A) acts of the Responsible Person were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or (B) the Responsible Person personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally entitled; or (ii) if the action or proceeding was disposed of other than by judgment or other final adjudication, the Board of Directors finds in good faith that, if it had been disposed of by judgment or other final adjudication, such judgment or other final adjudication would have been adverse to the Indemnified Person and would have established (A) or (B) above.

(c) If indemnification is denied, in whole or part, because of such a finding by the Board of Directors in the absence of a judgment or other final adjudication, or because the Board of Directors believes the expenses for which indemnification is requested to be unreasonable, such action by the Board of Directors shall in no way affect the right of the Indemnified Person to make application therefor in any court having jurisdiction thereof, and in such action or proceeding the issue shall be whether the Responsible Person met the standard of conduct set forth in Section 1, or whether the expenses were reasonable, as the case may be; not whether the finding of the Board of Directors with respect thereto was correct; and the determination of such issue shall not be affected by the Board’s finding. If the judgment or other final adjudication in such action or proceeding establishes that the Responsible Person met the standard set forth in Section 1, or that the disallowed expenses were reasonable, or to the extent that it does, the Board of Directors shall then find such standard to have been met if it has not done so, and shall grant such indemnification, and shall also grant to the Indemnified Person indemnification of the expenses incurred by him in connection with the action or proceeding resulting in the judgment or other final adjudication that such standard of conduct was met, or if pursuant to such court determination such person is entitled to less than the full amount of indemnification denied by the Corporation, the portion of such expenses proportionate to the amount of such indemnification so awarded.

(d) A finding by the Board of Directors pursuant to this Section that the standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 has been met shall mean a finding (i) by a quorum consisting of directors who are not parties to such action or proceeding or, (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable or, if obtainable, such a quorum is unable to make such a finding and so directs, (A) by the Board of Directors upon the written opinion of independent legal counsel that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because the applicable standard of conduct has been met, or (B) by the shareholders upon a finding that such standard has been met, such action by the Board of Directors or shareholders to be taken as promptly as is practicable.

Section 4. Contractual Article. This Article shall be deemed to constitute a contract between the Corporation and each director and each officer of the Corporation who serves as such at any time while this Article is in effect. No repeal or amendment of this Article, insofar as it reduces the extent of the indemnification of any person who could be a Responsible Person shall without his written consent be effective as to such person with respect to any event, act or omission occurring or allegedly occurring (a) prior to the date of such repeal or amendment if on that date he is not serving in any capacity for which he could be a Responsible Person, or (b) prior to the thirtieth (30th) day following delivery to him of written notice of such amendment as to any capacity in which he is serving on the date of such repeal or amendment, other than as a director or officer of the Corporation, for which he could be a Responsible Person, or (c) the later of the thirtieth (30th) day following delivery to him of such notice or the end of the term of office (for whatever reason) he is serving as director or officer of the Corporation when such repeal or amendment is adopted, with respect to being a Responsible Person in that capacity. No amendment of the Business Corporation Law shall, insofar as it reduces the permissible extent of the right of indemnification of a Responsible Person under this Article, be effective as to such person with respect to any event, act or omission occurring or allegedly occurring prior to the effective date of such amendment. This Article shall be binding on any successor to the Corporation, including any corporation or other entity which acquires all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets.

-11-

Section 5. Insurance. The Corporation may, but need not, maintain insurance insuring the Corporation or persons entitled to indemnification under Section 1 of this Article for liabilities against which they are entitled to indemnification under this Article or insuring such persons for liabilities against which they are not entitled to indemnification under this Article.

Section 6. Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized by the Board of Directors, grant rights of indemnification and advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation to the full extent of the provisions of this Article with respect to indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of the Corporation.

Section 7. Non-exclusivity. The indemnification provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any person covered hereby may be entitled other than pursuant to this Article. The Corporation is authorized to enter into agreements with any such person or persons providing them rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses in addition to the provisions therefor in this Article to the full extent permitted by law.
