if the Indemnitee is wholly unsuccessful. The Court of Chancery of the State of
Delaware shall be the exclusive forum for any litigation by the Indemnitee and
the Corporation over any aspect of the Indemnitee's rights to indemnification or
advancements.
EXPENSES PAYABLE IN ADVANCE
Section 6. Except as limited by Section 5 of this Article, expenses
incurred in defending a threatened or pending action, suit or proceeding shall
be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action,
suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the
director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined
that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in
the Article VIII.
NON-EXCLUSIVITY AND SURVIVAL OF INDEMNIFICATION
Section 7. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or
granted pursuant to the other Sections of this Article VIII shall not be deemed
exclusive of any rights to which any person seeking indemnification or
advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, contract,
vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action
in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such
office, it being the policy of the Corporation that indemnification of the
persons specified in Sections 1 and 2 of this Article VIII shall be made to the
fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. The provisions of this Article VIII
shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not
specified in Sections 1 or 2 of this Article VIII but whom the Corporation has
the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of Delaware law or
otherwise. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or
granted pursuant to this Article VIII shall, unless otherwise provided or
ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer or
employee and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
administrators of such person.
INSURANCE
Section 8. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf
of any person who is or was a director or employee of the Corporation, or is or
was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer or employee
of another Corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan
or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by
him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not
the Corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify him against
such liability under the provisions of this Article VIII, or otherwise under
Delaware law.
