Note 4 – Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Total comprehensive income for the three-and nine-months ended June 30, 2003 was $2,277 and $7,512 respectively, which compares to the total comprehensive income for the three- and nine-months ended June 30, 2002 of $894 and $2,268, respectively. Total comprehensive income differs from net income due to unrealized gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translation, which are reflected separately in the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheet under the caption “Accumulated other comprehensive loss.” Realized gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income.

Note 5 – Income From Investees

 

During the first, second and third quarters of fiscal 2003, the Company received cash distributions of $4,239, $4,409 and $4,780, respectively, from its 45% interest in Carbontronics LLC and 25% interest in Carbontronics II LLC and Carbontronics Fuels LLC. These interests were acquired in 1998. The Company has no cost basis in these investments nor requirement to provide future funding. Any income to be derived from these investments is dependent upon tax credits (adjusted for operating losses at the fuel plants) being generated from synthetic fuel production, which are recorded when and if received. The income and distributions projected for fiscal years 1998, 1999, 2000, and 2001 failed in total to materialize. During the first and second quarter of fiscal 2002, distributions of $465 and $1,061, respectively were received. The Company received no distributions in the third quarter of fiscal 2002.

 

The synthetic fuels industry which encompasses the Company’s investment as described herein is driven by Section 29 of the Internal Revenue Service first adopted in 1980 and designed to provide tax credit incentives to stimulate the development of alternative energy sources. To qualify for such Section 29 tax credits, a tax payer has to meet a long and stringent list of controls and requirements which for each producer of synthetic fuels culminates in a Private Letter Ruling (PLR) issued by the IRS. As a consequence, the historical performance of the entities comprising the Company’s interests in synfuel production has been one of frequent disruptions, and total unpredictability as to when and if any income and distribution thereof may occur. Further, the Limited Partners of these entities have the right to suspend any and all payments under certain conditions and circumstances, including initiations of IRS review (Tax Event).

 

After the three quarterly distributions of fiscal 2003, in June 2003 the IRS announced that it had reason to question the scientific validity of certain test procedures and results that have been presented to it by taxpayers with interests in synfuel operations as evidence that the required “significant chemical change” has indeed, occurred so as to qualify as synthetic fuel, and is currently reviewing information regarding these test procedures and practices. Accordingly, the IRS has suspended the issuance of PLR’s. In addition, the IRS indicated that it may revoke existing PLR’s that relied on the procedures and results under review if it determines that those test procedures and results do not demonstrate that a significant chemical change has occurred.

 

The Company believes that under the current pronouncements and actions by the IRS, a significant risk exists that such may be a “Tax Event”, in which case further distributions to Gencor will cease.

 

Under these circumstances, the Company cannot predict when, if ever, there will be any further distributions, nor in what amount, if any.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Results of Operations

 

Net sales for the nine-months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were $48.3 million and $51.2 million, respectively a decrease of $2.9 million or 5.6%. Domestic sales for the nine-month period of fiscal 2003 were $38.7 million reflecting a $5.9 million increase from year ago levels. The increase in domestic sales is primarily due to some recovery of our industry from the September 11 events. Decreased asphalt plant orders at one of the Company’s wholly owned U.K. subsidiaries partially eroded the increase in domestic sales. Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 reflected a decrease of approximately $3.7 million over the same period of the previous year. The foreign operations accounted for $6.2 million of the decline due to unfavorable market conditions in the U.K., increased competition in the Asian market, as well as the effect of the SARS epidemic. Domestic sales for the third quarter increased by $2.5 million from year ago levels.

 

Gross margins as a percent of net sales improved by 1% during the nine-months ended June 30, 2003 from year ago levels. Domestic margins improved 4.6% and 1.0% during the three- and nine -month periods ended June 30, 2003. Higher volume and margins on larger contracts contributed to the improvement in domestic margins. Gross margins from foreign sales declined in the three and nine-month periods of fiscal 2003, due to the unfavorable market conditions in the U.K., increased competition in the Asian market, and the effect of the SARS epidemic.

 

Product engineering and development costs remained constant during the nine-month periods ended 2003 and compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2003. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $712 and $817 during the three and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2003. The increase in reserve for doubtful accounts due to the consolidation of foreign operations contributed to $1.2 million of the increase during the three and nine –month periods ended June 30, 2003. Domestic selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 7.3% and 6.5% during the three and nine -month periods ended June 30, 2003.

 

Operating income was $91 in the third quarter and $1.1 million in the nine months of fiscal 2003, compared to $958 for the quarter and $1.8 million for the nine months of fiscal 2002. Operating losses were $1.9 million at a foreign operation in the third quarter and $3.0 million in the nine months of fiscal 2003, compared to operating income of $351 for the quarter and $349 for the nine months of fiscal 2002.

 

As a result of the recent and nine months unfavorable operating results referred to above, the operations of Gencor International Limited (GIL), one of the Company’s wholly-owned U.K. subsidiaries, are being consolidated with the Domestic operations. Effective July 3, 2003, with the concurrence of our secured senior lender, the U.K. subsidiary was placed into Administration with a court appointed Administrator. The Administrator will manage GIL for the benefit of all creditors. The Company intends to retain all intellectual property and real property and continue the international business, managed and operated domestically by a new subsidiary. The Company does not expect a loss related to this consolidation.

 

Restructuring costs, primarily legal and professional fees relating to the reorganization were $302 during the first nine-months of fiscal 2002. There were no restructuring costs for the first nine-months of fiscal 2003.

 

Other Income (Expense)

 

Interest expense declined $246 and $486 for the three and nine-month periods of fiscal 2003 from the pervious year, reflecting the reduction in the debt balance and lower interest rates.

The income and distributions projected for fiscal years 1998, 1999, 2000, and 2001 failed in total to materialize. During the first and second quarter of fiscal 2002, distributions of $465 and $1,061, respectively were received. The Company received no distributions in the third quarter of fiscal 2002.

 

The synthetic fuels industry which encompasses the Company’s investment as described herein is driven by Section 29 of the Internal Revenue Service first adopted in 1980 and designed to provide tax credit incentives to stimulate the development of alternative energy sources. To qualify for such Section 29 tax credits, a tax payer has to meet a long and stringent list of controls and requirements which for each producer of synthetic fuels culminates in a Private Letter Ruling (PLR) issued by the IRS. As a consequence, the historical performance of the entities comprising the Company’s interests in synfuel production has been one of frequent disruptions, and total unpredictability as to when and if any income and distribution thereof may occur. Further, the Limited Partners of these entities have the right to suspend any and all payments under certain conditions and circumstances, including initiations of IRS review (Tax Event).

 

After the three quarterly distributions of fiscal 2003, in June 2003 the IRS announced that it had reason to question the scientific validity of certain test procedures and results that have been presented to it by taxpayers with interests in synfuel operations as evidence that the required “significant chemical change” has, indeed, occurred so as to qualify as synthetic fuel, and is currently reviewing information regarding these test procedures and practices. Accordingly, the IRS has suspended the issuance of PLR’s. In addition, the IRS indicated that it may revoke existing PLR’s that relied on the procedures and results under review if it determines that those test procedures and results do not demonstrate that a significant chemical change has occurred.

 

The Company believes that under the current pronouncements and actions by the IRS, a significant risk exists that such may be a “Tax Event”, in which case distributions to Gencor will cease.

 

Under these circumstances, the Company can not predict when, if ever there will be any further distributions, nor in what amount, if any.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income tax expense increased by $2.1 million and $5.0 million for the three and nine-month periods of fiscal 2003, reflecting the increase in pre-tax income.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

On December 27, 2001, the Company and its Senior Secured Lenders signed an Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Agreement, which specifies monthly principal payments of $320 beginning December 2001 and continuing through July 2002, then increasing to $400 in August 2002 and continuing to August 2005, with the remaining balance due September 6, 2005. It is management’s intention to refinance any remaining balance. The interest rate during the term of the loan is based upon the prime rate plus 2%. During fiscal 2002, the Company paid $4,000 in principal and during the first nine months of fiscal 2003, paid an additional $15,142. The Amended and Restated Secured Credit Agreement includes certain other financial and restrictive covenants.

The Company is presently negotiating for new financing with a new lender to provide a less costly revolving credit facility. New financing is expected to be in place before the end of August.

 

Pursuant to its Amended Plan of Reorganization, on January 29, 2002 the Company made a principal payment of $488 on the industrial revenue bond. Monthly principal and interest payments of $38 are scheduled to continue until the balance is paid-off in March 2005.

 

The current ratio of 1.22:1.00 and working capital of $6.4 million at June 30, 2003 compares to the current ratio of 1.59:1.00 and working capital of $16.3 million a year earlier, which reflects the payment of $15.1 million for long term debt reduction.

 

Cash provided (used) by operations increased from ($515) during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 to $5.3 million for the same period of fiscal 2003. The $5.8 million improvement reflects favorable net cash inflows from increases in customer deposits of $418, income taxes payable of $4.8 million, and decreases in accounts payable of $2.1 million, accrued expenses of $1.5 million, accounts receivable of $1.8 million, and inventories of $4.9 million. Cash used in financing activities reflected principal payments of $14,782 against the secured loan agreements, and $360 against the Industrial Revenue Bond.

 

Seasonality

 

The Company is concentrated in the asphalt-related business and is subject to a seasonal slow-down during the third and fourth quarters of the calendar year. Traditionally, the Company’s customers do not purchase new equipment for shipment during the summer and fall months to avoid disrupting their peak season for highway construction and repair work. This slow-down often results in lower reported sales and earnings and or losses during the first and fourth quarters of the Company’s fiscal year ended September 30.

 

Forward-Looking Information

 

This Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which represent the Company’s expectations and beliefs, including, but not limited to, statements concerning gross margins, sales of the Company’s products and future financing plans. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond the Company’s control. Actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of important factors, including income from tax credits to the Company, the final expenses related to the U.K. Administration of GIL, the financial condition of the Company’s customers, changes in the economic and competitive environments and demand for the Company’s products.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

The Company operates manufacturing facilities and sales offices principally located in the United States and the United Kingdom. The Company is subject to business risks inherent in non-U.S. activities, including political and economic uncertainty, import and export limitations, and market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s principal currency exposure against the U.S. dollar is the British pound. Periodically, the Company has used derivative financial instruments consisting primarily of interest rate hedge agreements to manage exposures to interest rate changes. The Company’s objective in managing its exposure to changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt is to limit the impact of such changes on earnings and cash flow and to reduce its overall borrowing costs.

 

At June 30, 2003, the Company had approximately $15.4 million of debt outstanding. Under the Amended and Restated Secured Credit Agreement, substantially all of the Company’s borrowings bear interest at variable rates based upon the prime rate plus 2%. The Company performed a sensitivity analysis assuming a hypothetical 1% adverse movement in the interest rates on the debt outstanding at the end of June 2003. Such a movement in interest rates would cause the Company to recognize additional interest expense for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2003 of approximately $185 along with a corresponding decrease in cash flows.

 

The above sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk excludes accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities because of the short-term maturity of such instruments. The analysis does not consider the effect on other variables such as changes in sales volumes or management’s actions with respect to levels of capital expenditures, future acquisitions or planned divestitures, all of which could be influenced significantly by changes in interest rates and cause the results to differ significantly from those indicated by the sensitivity analysis

EX-10.2 3 dex102.htm INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT FOR DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Indemnification Agreement for Directors and Officers

Exhibit 10.2

 

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

 

This Indemnification Agreement dated as of this              day of                             , 2003 (“Agreement”), is made and entered into by and between Gencor Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”), and                                                       (“Indemnitee”):

 

RECITALS

 

A.    Competent and experienced persons are becoming increasingly reluctant to serve publicly-held corporations as directors, officers, or in other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through liability insurance or adequate indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to the corporation; and

 

B.    The current unavailability, inadequacy, and extraordinary cost of adequate insurance and the uncertainties relating to indemnification have increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons; and

 

C.    The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that the inability to attract and retain such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Company’s stockholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future; and

 

D.    Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “Corporate Law”) empower the Company to indemnify its officers, directors, employees and agents by agreement and to indemnify persons who serve, at the request of the Company, as directors, officers, employees, or agents or other corporations or enterprises, and Section 145 of the Corporate Law expressly provide that the indemnification provided therein is not exclusive; and

 

E.    It is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified; and

 

F.    Indemnitee is willing to serve, or continue to serve and to take on additional service for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that he be so indemnified.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

 

1.    Definitions.    For purposes of this Agreement:

 

  (a)  

Corporate Status” describes the status of a person who is or was a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company or of any other

 

1


corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise which such person is or was serving at the request of the Company.

 

  (b)   (b) “Disinterested Director” means a director of the Company who is not and was not a party to the Proceeding (as hereinafter defined) in respect of which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee.

 

  (c)   Effective Date” means the date first above written.

 

  (d)   Expenses” shall include all reasonable attorneys’ fees, retainers, court costs, transcript costs, fees of experts, witness fees, travel expenses, duplicating costs, printing and binding costs, telephone charges, postage, delivery service fees, and all other disbursements or expenses of the types customarily incurred in connection with prosecuting, defending, preparing to prosecute or defend, investigating, or being or preparing to be a witness in a proceeding.

 

  (e)   Independent Counsel” means a law firm, or a member of a law firm, that is experienced in matters of corporation law and neither presently is, nor in the past five years has been, retained to represent: (i) the Company or Indemnitee in any matter material to either such party, or (ii) any other party to the Proceeding giving rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Independent Counsel” shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement.

 

  (f)   Proceeding” includes any action, suit, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution mechanism, investigation, administrative hearing or any other proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including any appeal thereof, whether or not initiated prior to the Effective Date, except a proceeding initiated by an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11 of this Agreement to enforce his rights under this Agreement.

 

2.    Agreement to Serve.    Indemnitee has agreed to serve as a director and/or officer of the Company. Indemnitee may at any time and for any reason resign from such position (subject to any contractual obligation or any obligation imposed by operation of law). The Company shall have no obligation under this Agreement to continue Indemnitee in any position with the Company.

 

3.    Indemnification—General.    The Company shall indemnify, and advance Expenses to Indemnitee as provided in this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in effect on the date hereof and to such greater extent as applicable law may thereafter from time to time permit. The rights of Indemnitee provided under the preceding sentence shall include, but shall not be limited to, the rights set forth in the other sections of this Agreement.

 

4.    Third Party Actions.    Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 4 if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is, or is threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed Proceeding, other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 4, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his

 

2


behalf in connection with any such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

 

5.    Derivative Actions.    Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 5 if by reason of his Corporate Status he is or is threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor. Pursuant to this Section, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with the defense or settlement of such Proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no indemnification shall by made by Company in respect of any claim, issue or matter in such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such Proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, the Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such Expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

 

6.    Indemnification for Expenses of an Indemnitee.    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a party to and is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter; provided, however, that this sentence shall not limit or prohibit Indemnitee’s right to indemnification pursuant to Sections 4 and 5 above. For purposes of this Section 6 and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter.

 

7.    Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness.    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is by reason of his Corporate Status, a witness in any Proceeding, he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith.

 

8.    Advancement of Expenses.    The Company shall advance all reasonable Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding within twenty (20) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by an undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to

 

3


repay any Expenses advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such Expenses.

 

9.    Indemnification Procedure.

 

(a)    To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Secretary of the Company (or to such other officer as may be designated by the Board) a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. The Secretary, or other designated officer, of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification.

 

(b)    Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to Section 9(a) hereof, a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case: (A) by the Board by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Disinterested Directors or (B) if a quorum of the Board consisting of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, such quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee or (C) if directed by the Directors, by the stockholders of the Company; or (D) as provided in Section 10(b) of this Agreement; and, if it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to or on behalf of Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.

 

(c)    In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(b) hereof, the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 9(c). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board, and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him of the identity of the independent counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee, may, within seven (7) days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company a written objection to such selection. Such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 1 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. If such written objection is made, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until a court has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within twenty (20) days after submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 9(a)

 

4


hereof, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the Court or by such other person as the Court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom an objection is so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 9(b) hereof. The Company shall pay any and all reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel incurred by such Independent Counsel in connection with acting pursuant to Section 9(b) hereof, and the Company shall pay all reasonable fees and Expenses incident to the procedures of this Section 9(c), regardless of the manner in which such Independent Counsel was selected or appointed. Upon the due commencement of any judicial Proceeding pursuant to Section 11(a) of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).

 

10.    Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings.

 

(a)    In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such determination shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 9(a) of this Agreement, and the Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption.

 

(b)    If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 9 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided, however, that such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 10(b) shall not apply (i) if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the stockholders pursuant to Section 9(b) of this Agreement and if (A) within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Company of the request for such determination the Board has resolved to submit such determination to the stockholders for their consideration at an annual meeting thereof to be held within seventy-five (75) days after such receipt and such determination is made thereat or (B) a special meeting of stockholders is called within fifteen (15) days after such receipt for the purpose of making such determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within sixty (60) days after having been so called and such determination is made thereat, or (ii) if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(b) of this Agreement.

 

5


(c)    The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself, adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

 

11.    Remedies of Indemnitee.

 

(a)    In the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement, (iii) the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(b) of this Agreement and such determination shall not have been made and delivered in a written opinion within ninety (90) days after receipt by the Company, of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, or (v) payment of indemnification is not made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or such determination is deemed to have been made pursuant to Sections 9 or 10 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication in an appropriate court of the State of Delaware, or in any other court of competent jurisdiction, of his entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of expenses. Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication within one hundred eighty (180) days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this Section 11(a). The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication.

 

(b)    In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial Proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 11 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. If a Change of Control shall have occurred, in any judicial Proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 11 the Company shall have the burden of proving that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be.

 

(c)    If a determination shall have been made or deemed to have been made pursuant to Sections 9 or 10 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial Proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 11, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.

 

(d)    The Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial Proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 11 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are

13.    Duration of Agreement.    This Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon the later of: (a) ten (10) years after the date that Indemnitee shall have ceased to serve as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint

15.    Exceptions to Indemnification Rights.    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses under this Agreement with respect to any Proceeding, or any claim therein, brought or made by him against the Company.

 

16.    Counterparts.    This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. Only one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforceability is sought needs to be produced to evidence the existence of this Agreement.
