 Company or their service, at the direction of the Company and while also a director or officer of the Company, as a director, officer or trustee of another organization, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements, and reasonable expenses incurred by the person in connection with the proceeding if the Indemnification Criteria are met. “Proceeding” means a threatened, pending or completed civil, criminal, administrative, arbitration or investigative proceeding, including one by or in the right of the Company. The By-laws contain detailed terms regarding such rights of indemnification and reference is made thereto for a complete statement of such indemnification rights. To the extent the By-laws with respect to any indemnification provision are invalidated, then the remaining indemnification provisions remain applicable and we are required to indemnify directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Minnesota law. The By-laws further provide that the Company may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any person who is or was serving as a director, officer, senior management employee or agent of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, senior management, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or employee benefit plan against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the MBCA. Helix maintains a director and officer insurance policy to cover the Company, its directors and its officers against certain liabilities. All of the foregoing indemnification provisions are not to be deemed exclusive of any other right to indemnity to which a director or officer may be entitled under any by-law, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
