SECTION 8.02 INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS. (a) The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a company or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid or owed in settlement actually and reasonably paid or incurred by him or her or rendered or levied against him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner lie or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, in itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. (b) The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably paid or incurred by him or her in connection 15.

(c) The Corporation shall, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, indemnify all employees and agents of the Corporation (other than Directors and officers) to the extent that Directors and officers shall be indemnified pursuant to subsections (a) and (b).

Such determination shall be made (i) 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, (ii) 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, (iii) by the stockholders, or (iv) in any case in which applicable law makes court approval a prerequisite to indemnification, by the court in which such action, suit or proceeding was brought or another court of competent jurisdiction. (f) Expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by an officer or Director in defending a civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall 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 or officer 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 in this section. Such expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by other employees and agents shall be so paid upon terms and conditions, if any, as the Board of Directors deems appropriate. (g) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of the stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in an official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

(c) Before payment of any dividend or any distribution of profits, there may be set aside out of the said surplus of the Corporation such sum or sums as the Board of Directors from time to time, in its discretion thinks proper as a reserve fund to meet contingencies, or for equalizing dividends, or for such other purpose as the Board of Directors shall think conducive to the interests of the Corporation and the Board of Directors may abolish any such reserve in the manner in which it was created.
