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 or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or

such director or officer has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.&nbsp;The DGCL also empowers Delaware corporations to provide similar indemnity to any director or officer, or former director or officer, for expenses, including
attorneys&#146; fees, actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of actions or suits by or in the right of the corporation if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably

the case, such director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.&nbsp;The DGCL further provides that (i)&nbsp;to the extent a present or former
director or officer of a corporation has been successful in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including
attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person, in connection therewith; and (ii)&nbsp;indemnification and advancement of expenses provided for, by, or granted pursuant to, the DGCL shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled.&nbsp;The DGCL permits a Delaware corporation to purchase and maintain on behalf of any director or officer, insurance against liabilities incurred in such capacities.&nbsp;The DGCL also permits
a corporation to pay expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of an action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay such amount if it is determined that such person
is not entitled to indemnification.&nbsp;The DGCL further permits a corporation, in its original certificate of incorporation or an amendment thereto, to eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders
for monetary damages for violations of the director&#146;s fiduciary duty except: (i)&nbsp;for any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which

of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust, or other enterprise or by reason of anything done or not done by the officer or director that is a party to the agreement in any such capacity, the Company shall

claim that the director or officer party to the agreement would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law. Prior to a change in control of the Company, as defined in the agreement, the director or officer who is a party to the
agreement will not be entitled to indemnification in connection with any claim described above by such officer or director against the Company or any other director or officer of the Company except under certain circumstances.&nbsp;In the event of a
change in control of the Company, as defined in the agreement, other than a change in control which has been approved by a majority of the Company&#146;s board of directors who were directors immediately prior to such change in control, then with

against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </P>
