A similar standard of care is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification extends only to expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees) incurred in connection with defense or settlement of an action, and the DGCL requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. Section 145 of the DGCL also provides that the rights conferred thereby are not exclusive of any other right to which any person may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, and permits a corporation to advance expenses to or on behalf of a person entitled to be indemnified upon receipt of an undertaking to repay the amounts advanced if it is determined that the person is not entitled to be indemnified.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px;text-indent:45px">The Company&#8217;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides that no director shall be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except (i) for any breach of the director&#8217;s duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px;text-indent:45px">Article NINTH of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company provides that the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, as the same may be amended and supplemented, indemnify any and all persons whom it shall have power to indemnify under Section 145 of the DGCL from and against any and all of the expenses, liabilities or other matters referred to in or covered by Section 145 of the DGCL, and such right to indemnification shall not be deemed exclusive under any Bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such person.</p> <p style="font-size:10pt;font-family:times new roman;margin:0px">&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin:0px"> <table style="border-spacing:0;font:10pt times new roman;width:100%" cellpadding="0"> <tr style="height:15px"> <td class="hpbhr">&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td style="BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid;
