of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to my criminal action
or proceeding, has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The
termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, of

proceeding, he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was
unlawful.

request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against
expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees, actual1y and
reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of
the action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner which he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as
to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of' competent jurisdiction,
after exhaustion of all appeals there from, to be liable to the corporation or
for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent
