 and directors, consistent with Section 145 of the DGCL, as amended. The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its executive officers and directors. These agreements, among other things, require the Registrant to indemnify each executive officer and director to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, including indemnification of expenses such as attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by the director or executive officer in any action or proceeding, including any action or proceeding by or in right of the Registrant, arising out of the person’s services as a director or an executive officer.

Reference is made to Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, which enables a corporation in its original certificate of incorporation or an amendment thereto to eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director or officer for violations of the director’s fiduciary duty, except (i) for any breach of the director’s or officer’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, which provides for liability of directors for unlawful payments of dividends of unlawful stock purchase or redemptions, or (iv) for any transaction from which a director or officer derived an improper personal benefit. The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for such limitation of liability. The Registrant is also expressly authorized by its amended and restated bylaws to advance certain expenses (including attorneys’ fees) to its directors and officers and its amended and restated bylaws provide that the Registrant must indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law.

The Registrant expects to maintain standard policies of insurance that provide coverage (i) to its directors and officers against loss rising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act and (ii) to the Registrant with respect to indemnification payments that it may make to such directors and officers.
