or proceeding referred to Section&nbsp;78.7502(1)&nbsp;or 78.7502(2), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein. NRS 78.7502(1)&nbsp;provides
that 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, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation,
by reason of the fact that he 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, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
against expenses, including attorneys&rsquo; fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (a)&nbsp;is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138; or (b)&nbsp;acted in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect
to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.</P>
