      Delaware law, a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party
      or is
      threatened to be made a party to any type of proceeding, other than an action
      by
      or in the right of the corporation, because he or she is or was a director,
      officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the
      request of the corporation a director, officer, employee or agent of another
      corporation or other entity, against expenses, including attorneys&#8217; fees,
      judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
      in connection with such proceeding if: (1) he or she acted in good faith and
      in
      a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
      interests of the corporation and (2) with respect to any criminal proceeding,
      he
      or she had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
      A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened
      to
      be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit brought
      by or in the right of the corporation because he or she is or was a director,
      officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the
      request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
      corporation or other entity, against expenses, including attorneys&#8217; fees,
      actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action or suit if
      he or
      she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be
      in
      or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no
      indemnification will be made if the person is found liable to the corporation
      unless, in such a case, the court determines the person is nonetheless entitled
      to indemnification for such expenses. A corporation must also indemnify a
      present or former director or officer who has been successful on the merits
      or
      otherwise in defense of any proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or
      matter therein, against expenses, including attorneys&#8217; fees, actually and
      reasonably incurred by him or her. Expenses, including attorneys&#8217; fees, incurred
      by a director or officer, or any employees or agents as deemed appropriate
      by
      the board of directors, in defending civil or criminal proceedings may be paid
      by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such proceedings
      upon
      receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director, officer, employee
      or
      agent to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or
      she
      is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. The Delaware law regarding
      indemnification and the advancement of expenses is not exclusive of any other
      rights a person may be entitled to under any bylaw, agreement, vote of
      stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. </font></div>

      law also provides that a corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on
      behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
      the
      corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a

      or
      not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such
      liability. The Company will maintain, at its expense, an insurance policy that
      insures its officers and directors, subject to customary exclusions and
      deductions, against specified liabilities that may be incurred in those
      capacities. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements
      with each of its directors that provide that it will indemnify the indemnitee

      performance of such indemnitee&#8217;s duties on the Company&#8217;s behalf to the fullest
