elect two directors of the Corporation if the Board then consists of less than 16 directors, or three directors if the Board consists of 16 or more directors. Otherwise, except as required by law, the holders of First Preferred Shares shall not be

association with the Registrant or other entity. In addition, the Registrant may advance moneys to a director, officer or other individual for the costs, charges and expenses of a proceeding referred to above. The individual shall repay the moneys
if the individual does not fulfill the conditions in (a)&nbsp;and (b)&nbsp;below. The Registrant may not indemnify an individual referred to above unless the individual (a)&nbsp;acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of
the Registrant, or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as director or officer or in a similar capacity at the Registrant&#146;s request; and (b)&nbsp;in the case of a criminal or

conditions set out in (a)&nbsp;and (b)&nbsp;above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an individual referred to above is entitled to indemnity from the Registrant in respect of all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by the individual in
connection with the defense of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding to which the individual is subject because of the individual&#146;s association with the Registrant or other entity referred to above, if the
individual seeking indemnity was not judged by the court or other competent authority to have committed any fault or omitted to do anything that the individual ought to have done, and if the individual fulfills the conditions set out in (a)&nbsp;and
