<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation
Law provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses
(including attorneys&rsquo; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with specified actions, suits
or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than a &ldquo;derivative action&rdquo; &mdash;
an action by or in the right of the corporation) if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceedings, had no reasonable
cause to believe their conduct was unlawful.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">A similar standard applies in the case of
derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses (including attorneys&rsquo; fees) actually and reasonably
incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of a derivative 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&rsquo;s certificate of incorporation, by-laws,
disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or otherwise.</P>
