| 9.     Effect of CertainResolutions.  Neither the settlement nor termination of any Proceeding northe failure of the Company to award indemnification or to determine that indemnificationis payable shall create an adverse presumption that Indemnitee is not entitledto indemnification hereunder. In addition, the termination of any Proceedingby judgment, order or settlement shall not create a presumption that the actor omission of the Indemnitee was material to the matter giving rise to the Proceedingand was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonestyor the Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit in money, propertyor services or with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonablecause to believe that Indemnitee’s action was unlawful.  The terminationof any Proceeding by conviction, or upon a plea of *nolo contendere*orits equivalent, or an entry of an order of probation prior to judgment, createsa rebuttable presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standardof conduct. In addition, the termination of or resignation by Indemnitee shallnot create an adverse presumption that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification hereunder. |
