To the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by law, the Company shall hold harmless and 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 ox investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, partner, fiduciary, or employee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding; provided that no indemnification may be provided for any person with respect to any matter as to which that person shall have been finally adjudicated:

	A.		Not to have acted honestly or in the reasonable belief that that person’s action was in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation or its shareholders; or

	B.		With respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had reasonable cause to believe that that person’s conduct was unlawful.

The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order or conviction adverse to that person, or by settlement or plea of nolo contenders or its equivalent, shall not of itself create a presumption that that person did not act honestly or in the reasonable belief that that person’s action was in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or its shareholders, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that that person’s conduct was unlawful.

Section 2. Liability to the Company. Notwithstanding any foregoing provision of this Article VIII, the Company shall not have the power to indemnify any person with respect to any claim, issue or matter asserted by or in the right of the corporation as to which that person is finally adjudicated to be liable to the Company unless the court in which the action, suit or proceeding was brought shall determine that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, that person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such amounts as the court shall deem reasonable.

Section 3. Successful Defense. Any foregoing provision of this Article VIII to the contrary notwithstanding, to the extent that a director or officer of the Company has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, that director or officer shall be indemnified against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by that director or officer in connection therewith.

Section 4. Written Undertaking. Expenses incurred in defending a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall in all cases be authorized and paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of that action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the corporation of:

A written undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director to repay that amount if that person is finally adjudicated:

	(1)		Not to have acted honestly or in the reasonable belief that that person’s action was in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company;

	(2)		With respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful; or

(3)

With respect to any claim, issue or matter asserted in any action, suit or proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company, to be liable to the Company, unless the court in which that action, suit or proceeding was brought permits indemnification in accordance with section 2; and

A written affirmation by the officer or director employee that the person has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the company as provided by these Bylaws.

The undertaking required by paragraph A shall be an unlimited general obligation of the person seeking the advance, but need not be secured And may be accepted without reference to financial ability to make the repayment.

Section 5. Indemnification Not Exclusive Remedy. The indemnification and entitlement to advances of expenses provided by this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in that person’s 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 or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. A right to indemnification required by the bylaws may be enforced by a separate action against the Company, if an order for indemnification has not been entered by a court in any action, suit or proceeding in respect to which indemnification is sought.

Section 6. Liability Insurance. The Company shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, partner, fiduciary, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any liability asserted against that person and incurred by that person in any such capacity, or arising out of that person’s status as such, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify that person against such liability under this section.

For purposes of this section, references to the “company” shall include, in addition to the surviving corporation or new corporation, any participating corporation in a consolidation or merger.

Section 7. Effect of Invalidity. If any word, clause or provision of this Article VIII or any award made hereunder shall for any reason be determined to be invalid, the provisions hereof shall not otherwise be affected thereby but shall remain in full force and effect.
