Virginia Code Section 13.1-700.1 permits a court, upon application of a director or officer, to review Company’s determination as to a director’s or officer’s request for advances, reimbursement or indemnification. If it determines that the director or officer is entitled to such advances, reimbursement or indemnification, the court may order Company to make advances and/or reimbursement for expenses or to provide indemnification, in which case the court shall also order Company to pay the officer’s or director’s reasonable expenses incurred to obtain the order. With respect to a proceeding by or in the right of the Company, the court may order indemnification to the extent of the officer’s or director’s reasonable expenses if it determines that, considering all the relevant circumstances, the officer or director is entitled to indemnification even though he or she was adjudged liable, and may also order Company to pay the officer’s and director’s reasonable expenses incurred to obtain the order of indemnification.

The Company has the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of Company, or is or was serving at the request of Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity, against any liability asserted against or incurred by such person, in any such capacity or arising from his or her status as such, whether or not Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the Articles.

The Company maintains a directors’ and officers’ legal liability insurance policy. The policy provides coverage, subject to certain deductible or retention amounts, for (i) Company’s directors and officers against losses by reason of their wrongful acts, and (ii) Company against claims against the directors and officers by reasons of their wrongful acts for which Company is required to indemnify or pay, all as such terms are defined in the policy and subject to the terms, conditions and exclusions contained therein.

Pursuant to the Company’s Articles, the Company may maintain a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy which insures the directors and officers of the Company against liability asserted against such persons in such capacity whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the Act.

The foregoing is only a general summary of certain aspects of the Act and the Company’s Articles dealing with indemnification of directors and officers, and does not purport to be complete. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of Article 10 of the Act and Article VI of the Articles of the
