(i)  not to have acted honestly or in the reasonable belief that his or her action was in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or its
     stockholders or, in the case of a person serving as a fiduciary of any employee benefit plan or trust, in or not opposed to the best interests of
     that plan or trust, or its participants or beneficiaries;

(ii)  with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had reasonable cause to believe that his or her 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 contendere or its equivalent, shall not of itself create a presumption that such person did not act honestly or in the reasonable belief that his or her action was in or not opposed to the best interests of that plan or trust or its participants or beneficiaries and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

Sec. 7.2  Derivative Actions.  
            Notwithstanding any provision of Section 7.1 and 7.4, the Company shall not indemnify any person with respect to any claim, issue or matter asserted by or in the right of the Company 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.

Sec. 7.3  Special right to Indemnification in Certain Cases.      
            Any provisions of Section 7.1, 7.2 or 7.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any other person whom the Company has authority to indemnify under Section 7.1, has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 7.1 or 7.2, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, that person shall be indemnified against expenses, including attorney’s fees, actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith.  The right to indemnification granted by this subsection may be enforced by a separate action against the Company, if an order for indemnification is not entered by a court in the action, suit or proceeding wherein that director, officer, employee, agent or other person was successful on the merits or otherwise.

Sec. 7.4  Determination in Specific Cases. 
            Any indemnification under Section 7.1 unless ordered by a court or required by these Bylaws, shall be made by the Company only as authorized in each specific case upon a determination that indemnification of any director, officer, employee, agent or other person is consistent with the terms of this Article VII.  Such determination shall be made by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who are not seeking indemnification or, if such a quorum is not obtainable, or even if obtainable, if a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion.   Such a determination once made may not be revoked and, upon the making of that determination, the director, officer, employee, agent or other person may enforce the indemnification against the Company by a separate action notwithstanding any attempted or actual subsequent action by the Board of Directors.

Sec. 7.5  Advancement of Expenses. 
            Expenses incurred in defending a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be authorized and paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of that action, suit or proceeding upon a determination made in accordance with the procedure established in Section 7.4 that, based solely on the facts then known to those making the determination and without further investigation, the person seeking indemnification satisfied the standard of conduct prescribed by Section 7.1, and upon receipt by the Company of:

             (i)    a written undertaking by or on behalf of the person to repay the amount if that person is finally adjudicated:

(a) not to have acted honestly or in the reasonable belief that such person’s action was not in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or its stockholders or, in the case of a person serving as a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan or trust, in or not opposed to the best interests of such plan or trust or its participants or beneficiaries;

(b) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was lawful; or

(c) 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 Subsection 2 ; and

            (ii) a written affirmation by the person that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Company as authorized in this Section.

The undertaking required by Paragraph (i) 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.

Sec. 7.6  Rights Not Exclusive; Enforceable by Separate Action.  
            The indemnification and entitlement to advances of expenses provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any 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, officer, employee, agent, trustee partner or fiduciary and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and personal representatives of such a person.  A right to indemnification required by this Article 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.

Sec. 7.7  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.

Sec. 7.8   Miscellaneous.
            For purposes of this Article, references to the "Company" shall include, in addition to the surviving corporation or new corporation, any participating corporation in a consolidation or merger.  For purposes of this Article, the Company shall be deemed to have requested a person to serve an employee benefit plan whenever the performance by him or her of his or her duties to the Company also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, him to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes assessed on a person seeking indemnification with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to applicable law shall be deemed "fines"; and action taken or omitted by him or her with respect to an employee benefit plan in the performance of his or her duties for a purpose reasonably believed by him or her to be in the interests of the participants or beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose which is in the best interests of the Company.

 Sec. 7.9  Amendment.
