SECTION 9. ACTION WITHOUT MEETING – Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting if a written consent thereto is signed by all members of the Board of Directors or of such committee, as the case may be, and such written consent is filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or such committee.

INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES

SECTION 1. INDEMNIFICATION – The Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), any person (an “Indemnitee”) who was or is made, or is threatened to be made, a party or is otherwise involved (including, without limitation, involvement as a witness) in any actual or threatened action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or an officer of the Corporation or, while a director or an officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, member, trustee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, nonprofit entity or other enterprise (including, but not limited to, service with respect to employee benefit plans) (any such entity, an “Other Entity”), whether the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer or in any other capacity while serving as a director or officer, against all liability and loss suffered (including, but not limited to, expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and expenses), judgments, excise taxes, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with such Proceeding). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall be required to indemnify an Indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Indemnitee only if the commencement of such Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Indemnitee was authorized by the Board of Directors or the Proceeding (or part thereof) relates to the enforcement of the Corporation’s obligations under this Article VI, Section 1. Any person serving as a director, officer, employee, member, trustee, administrator, employee or agent of an Other Entity whose equity or other interests are owned by the Corporation shall be conclusively presumed to be serving in such capacity at the request of the Corporation.

SECTION 2. ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES – The Corporation shall to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law pay, on an as-incurred basis, all expenses (including, but not limited to attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee in investigating, responding to, defending or testifying in any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition (as defined below). Such advancement shall be unconditional, unsecured and interest

 

-7-

free and shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay any expenses advanced; provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law, such payment of expenses in advance of the final judicial decision of the Proceeding from which there is no right to appeal (“final disposition”) shall be made only upon receipt of an unsecured undertaking by the Indemnitee to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined by final disposition that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VI or otherwise.

SECTION 3. CLAIMS – If a claim for indemnification (following the final disposition of such proceeding) or advancement of expenses under this Article VI is not paid in full within thirty days, or, in the case of advancement of expenses, fifteen days, provided that Indemnitee has delivered the undertaking contemplated by Article VI, Section 2, if required, after a written claim therefor by the Indemnitee has been received by the Corporation, the Indemnitee may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim to the fullest extent permitted by law. In any such action the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that the Indemnitee is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses under applicable law.

SECTION 4. INSURANCE – The Corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who 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, member, trustee or agent of an Other Entity, against any liability asserted against the person and incurred by the person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article VI or the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”).

SECTION 5. SURVIVAL; NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS – The rights conferred on any Indemnitee by this Article VI shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and are not exclusive of other rights arising under the Certificate of Incorporation, any bylaw, agreement, vote of directors or stockholders or otherwise. Any such rights shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and legal representatives of such Indemnitee. The Corporation may enter into agreements with any Indemnitee for the purpose of providing for indemnification or advancement of expenses.

SECTION 6. OTHER SOURCES; AMOUNTS RECEIVED FROM AN OTHER ENTITY – The Corporation shall (i) be the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to an Indemnitee shall be primary and any obligation of other entities or persons with respect to which an Indemnitee may have rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance for the same liability, loss or expenses incurred by such Indemnitee (the “Secondary Indemnitors”), is secondary), and (ii) subject to the delivery of the undertaking contemplated by Article VI, Section 2, if required, be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by a Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all liabilities, losses and expenses as required by the terms of this Article VI, without regard to any rights an Indemnitee may have against any Secondary Indemnitor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation’s obligation, if any, to indemnify or to advance expenses to any Indemnitee who was or is serving at the Corporation’s request as a director, officer, employee, member, trustee or agent of an Other Entity shall be reduced by any amount such Indemnitee may collect as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such Other Entity.

 

-8-

SECTION 7. AMENDMENT OR REPEAL – All rights to indemnification under this Article VI shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director or officer of the Corporation or legal representative thereof who serves or served in such capacity at any time while this Article VI is in effect. Any right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses of any Indemnitee arising hereunder shall not be diminished, eliminated or impaired by an amendment to or repeal of this Article VI or an amendment to or repeal of relevant provisions of the DGCL or any other applicable laws after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the Proceeding or other matter for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought.

SECTION 8. OTHER INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES – This Article VI shall not limit the right of the Corporation, to the extent and in the manner permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than Indemnitees when and as authorized by appropriate corporate action.

SECTION 9. RELIANCE – Indemnitees who after the date of the adoption of this Article VI become or remain an Indemnitee described in Article VI, Section 1 will be conclusively presumed to have relied on the rights to indemnity, advancement of expenses and other rights contained in this Article VI in entering into or continuing the service. The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in this Article VI will apply to claims made against any Indemnitee described in Article VI, Section 1 arising out of acts or omissions that occurred or occur either before or after the adoption of this Article VI in respect of service as a director or officer of the corporation or other service described in Article VI, Section 1.

SECTION 10. SUCCESSFUL DEFENSE – In the event that any proceeding to which an Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against the Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such proceeding with or without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be presumed that the Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in such proceeding for purposes of Section 145(c) of the DGCL. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.

ARTICLE VII

AMENDMENTS

These By-Laws may be altered, amended or repealed at any annual meeting of the stockholders (or at any special meeting thereof if notice of such proposed alteration, amendment or repeal to be considered is contained in the notice of such special meeting) by the affirmative vote of the holders of shares constituting a majority of the voting power of the Corporation. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, the Board of Directors may by majority vote of those present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, or by unanimous written consent in accordance with the DGCL, alter, amend or repeal these By-Laws, or enact such other By-Laws as in their judgment may be advisable for the regulation and conduct of the affairs of the Corporation.
