Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the Company’s governing documents, the Company shall # indemnify you as an officer or director of the Company or a trustee or fiduciary of an employee benefit plan of the Company against all liabilities and reasonable expenses that you may incur in any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal or administrative, or investigative and whether formal or informal, because you are or were an officer or director of the Company or a trustee or fiduciary of such employee benefit plan; # pay for or reimburse your reasonable expenses incurred in the defense of any proceeding to which you are a party because you are or were an officer or director of the Company or a trustee or fiduciary of such employee benefit plan and # if the Company maintains directors and officers liability insurance, to cover you under such insurance to the same extent as its other officers and directors. Your rights under this paragraph 4 shall survive the termination of your employment by the Company.

Indemnification and Directors and Officers Liability Insurance. The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify Executive with respect to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (whether or not such action, suit or proceeding arises or arose by or in the right of the Company or other entity) by reason of the fact that Executive is or was a director or officer of the Company or of any subsidiary of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, general partner, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including service with respect to employee benefit plans), against expenses, (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and costs), judgments, fines (including excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan) and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such director or officer in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, which amounts the Company will advance to Executive as the same are incurred; however, Executive shall repay any expenses paid or reimbursed by the Company if it is ultimately determined by order of a court of competent jurisdiction (without further right of appeal) that Executive is not legally entitled to be indemnified by the Company. If applicable law requires that the Board make an investigation and/or determination of the matter for which indemnification is being sought prior to paying or reimbursing Executive, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the investigation to be made (at the Company’s expense) and to have the Board reach a determination as soon as reasonably possible. During the Employment Term, the Company shall maintain directors and officers liability insurance with coverage limits of at least the amount in effect on the date hereof. The Company’s obligations to indemnify Executive and to advance or reimburse expenses provided by this Section shall continue after the termination of this Agreement or Executive’s employment for any reason. The rights to indemnification and advancement or reimbursement of expenses provided by this Section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Executive may be entitled under any charter, bylaw, other organization document, agreement, vote of shareholders or directors or otherwise.
