 provisions in our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and indemnification agreements may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors and officers for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and other stockholders. Further, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against our directors and officers as required in certain circumstances by these indemnification provisions. We have obtained insurance policies under which, subject to the limitations of the policies, coverage is provided to our directors, officers and certain employees against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of fiduciary duty or other wrongful acts as a director, officer or employee, including claims relating to public securities matters, and to us with respect to payments that may be made by us to our directors, officers and employees pursuant to our indemnification obligations or otherwise as a matter of law. Certain of our non-employeedirectors may, through their relationships with their employers, be insured or indemnified against certain liabilities incurred in their capacity as members of our board of directors. The underwriting agreement(s) that we may enter into may provide for indemnification by the underwriters of us and our directors and officers for certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, or otherwise.
