(1)  The material facts as to his relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors or the committee, and the Board of Directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than a quorum (but at least two directors); or




(2)  The material facts as to his relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or

Nor shall any such director be accountable or responsible to the Corporation for or in respect to any such transaction or contract of the Corporation or for any gains or profits realized by him by reason of the fact that he or any firm of which he is a member or any corporation of which he is a shareholder, director or officer is interested in such transaction or contract; and any such director, common or interested, may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at any meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof which shall authorize or take action in respect to any such contract, or transaction, including the establishment of any payment of compensation to such director and may vote to authorize, ratify or approve any such contract or transaction, including the establishment of any payment of compensation to such director, with like force and effect as if he or any firm of which he is a member, or any corporation of which he is a shareholder, director or officer were not interested in or did not have a relationship to such transaction or contract or compensation, as the case may be.

(c)  Indemnification Not Exclusive.  The indemnification authorized by this Section 17 shall not be exclusive of, and shall be in addition to, any rights of indemnification now existing or hereafter granted to any person under any statute, provision of the Articles of Incorporation, By-Laws, agreement, vote or other action of the Corporation’s stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
