Section 1701.13(E) of the Ohio Revised Code (the &#8220;Code&#8221;) sets forth conditions and limitations governing the indemnification of directors, officers, and certain other persons (&#8220;Indemnified Persons&#8221;). In general, the Code authorizes the Registrant to indemnify Indemnified Persons from liability if the Indemnified Person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed by such person to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any criminal actions or proceedings, if the Indemnified Person had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In the case of an action by or on behalf of the Registrant, indemnification is prohibited in certain circumstances, including (i) if the person seeking indemnification is adjudged liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of such person&#8217;s duties to the Registrant, unless an appropriate court determines such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses as the court shall deem proper, or (ii) if the only liability asserted against a director concerns certain unlawful dividends, distributions and other payments. Section 1701.13(E) of the Code provides that to the extent an Indemnified Person has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to by the foregoing, that Indemnified Person shall be indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith. The indemnification authorized under Ohio law is not exclusive and is in addition to any other rights granted to officers and directors under the Amended Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the &#8220;Articles of Incorporation&#8221;), or the Amended Regulations (the &#8220;Regulations&#8221;) of the Registrant or any agreement with directors, officers and certain other persons. The Registrant may purchase and maintain insurance or furnish similar protection on behalf of any Indemnified Person against any liability asserted against and incurred by an Indemnified Person in his or her capacity, or arising out of his or her status, as a director, officer or certain other person, whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the Code. </font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Article V of the Registrant&#8217;s Regulations provides that the Registrant will, to the full extent permitted or authorized by the Ohio General Corporation Law, indemnify any person made or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, or employee of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, trustee, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, domestic or foreign, nonprofit or for profit, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The Regulations further provide that the Registrant shall pay, to the full extent permitted or authorized by the Ohio General Corporation Law, expenses, including attorneys&#8217; fees, as they are incurred by any director or officer in defending any such action, suit, or proceeding. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by the Regulations shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any person seeking indemnification may be entitled under the Registrant&#8217;s Articles of Incorporation or Regulations, or any agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to action in his or her 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, or employee and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of that person. </font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Registrant maintains liability insurance for all of its directors and officers (&#8220;D&#38;O insurance&#8221;).
