Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The Company is an Indiana corporation. The Company’s officers and directors (and those who have agreed to such positions) are entitled to be indemnified under Indiana law and our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, against certain liabilities and expenses. Chapter 37 of The Indiana Business Corporation Law (the “IBCL”) requires a corporation, unless its articles of incorporation provide otherwise, to indemnify a director or an officer of the corporation who is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative and whether formal or informal, against reasonable expenses, including counsel fees, incurred in connection with the proceeding. The IBCL also permits a corporation to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent who is made a party to a proceeding because the person was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against liability incurred in the proceeding if (i) the individual’s conduct was in good faith and (ii) the individual reasonably believed (A) in the case of conduct in the individual’s official capacity with the corporation, that the conduct was in the corporation’s best interests and (B) in all other cases, that the individual’s conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and (iii) in the case of a criminal proceeding, the individual either (A) had reasonable cause to believe the individual’s conduct was lawful or (B) had no reasonable cause to believe the individual’s conduct was unlawful. The IBCL also permits a corporation to pay for or reimburse reasonable expenses incurred before the final disposition of a proceeding and permits a court of competent jurisdiction to order a corporation to indemnify a director or officer if the


court determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in view of all the relevant circumstances, whether or not the person met the standards for indemnification otherwise provided in the IBCL.
The Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provide for mandatory indemnification of officers and directors (and those who have agreed to such positions) if they are wholly successful on the merits of a proceeding and satisfy the standards of conduct specified by the IBCL set forth in the preceding paragraph. The Articles of Incorporation, as amended, also provide that any director or officer of the Company or any person who is serving at the request of the Company as a director or officer of another entity shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the same extent as the Company’s directors and officers. In any proceeding, an officer or director is entitled to be indemnified against all liabilities and expenses related to the proceeding, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement. The Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, also provide such persons with certain rights to be paid or reimbursed for expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of the final disposition. The Company’s Articles of Incorporation also provide that the Company has the discretion to indemnify employees and agents to the same extent, and on the same basis, as it is required to indemnify its officers and directors.
The Company’s By-Laws, as amended, provide for mandatory indemnification of officers and directors against all liability, including any obligation to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty, excise tax, or fine, and against reasonable expenses, including counsel fees, actually incurred by such person in his or her official capacity, provided that such person is determined in the manner specified in Section 6.3 of the By-laws to have met certain standards of conduct. The standard of conduct for any act or omission is: (1) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the person either had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was lawful, or, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful; or (2) in all non-criminal proceedings, either (a)(i) the person’s conduct was in good faith, and (ii) the person reasonably believed (A) in the case of conduct in the person’s official capacity, that the person’s conduct was in the Company’s best interest, or, (B) in all other cases, that the person’s conduct was not opposed to the Company’s best interests; or (b) the person’s breach of or failure to act in accordance with the standard set forth in this subsection (2)(a) above did not constitute willful misconduct or recklessness. A person’s conduct with respect to an employee benefit plan for a purpose which the person reasonably believed to be in the interests of the participants in and beneficiaries of the plan is conduct that satisfies the requirements of this subsection (2)(a)(i)(B). The termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, agreement, or settlement, or upon conviction or a plea of nolo contendere, or the equivalent of any of the foregoing, is not, of itself, determinative that the person did not meet the standard of conduct. The Company’s By-Laws authorize the Company to maintain insurance to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company against expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the IBCL or pursuant to its Articles of Incorporation, as amended. The Company currently maintains such insurance.

Undertakings
(a)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”);
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of this registration statement.

(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.




II-3
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
II-4
SIGNATURES
