A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation&#8217;s bylaws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or otherwise.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company&#8217;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation as amended provides that no director or officer shall be liable to the Company or the Company&#8217;s stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation on liability is not permitted under the DGCL, as now in effect or as amended.
