 the Company’s Bylaws require that the Company indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (including circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary), any person who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Company or is or was serving at its request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity (including service with respect to employee benefit plans) against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by such person. In addition, the Company maintains insurance under which its directors, officers and employees are insured against certain liabilities.

Also, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation includes provisions which eliminate the personal liability of the Company’s directors for monetary damages resulting from breaches of their fiduciary duty, provided that such provision does not eliminate liability for breaches of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, violations of Section 174 of the DGCL (concerning the willful or negligent violation of statutory provisions precluding payment of certain dividends and certain stock purchases or redemptions) or for any other transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

The foregoing is only a general summary of certain aspects of Delaware law, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and the Company’s Bylaws dealing with indemnification of directors and officers and does not purport to be complete. This description is intended only as a general summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, the Company’s Bylaws and the DGCL, which contain detailed specific provisions regarding the circumstances under which and the persons for whose benefit indemnification shall or may be made.
