If the Act hereafter is amended to lower the standard of conduct which an officer or director must meet in order to be entitled to indemnification, then the Corporation shall, in addition to the indemnification rights set forth herein; indemnify such officer or director to the fullest extent permitted by the Act provided that he has met the applicable statutory standard of conduct then in effect Any amendment of the Act which raises the applicable standard of conduct shall be prospective only, and shall not adversely affect a director’s or office’s right to be indemnified for acts prior to the effective date of any such amendment if the director or officer’s met the applicable standard of conduct in effect at that time.

Section 4. Procedures.

Such determination shall be made (a) 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 (b) 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 (c) by the stockholders.

Section 5. Expenses. Expenses incurred 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 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 determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized herein.

Section 6. Not Exclusive Provisions. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an officer or director seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any by-law, contract, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his or her other 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 an officer or director.

such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the indemnification provisions set forth herein.

Section 9. Merger. In the case of a merger, the term “corporation” shall include, in addition to the surviving corporation, any merging corporation absorbed in a merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had the power and authority to indemnify its directors and officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who was a director or officer of such merging corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position: under the provisions of this section with respect to the surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such merging corporation if its separate existence had continued.
