PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Robert J. Terry, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of the Registrant, has opined as to the legality of the securities being offered by this registration statement. Mr. Terry is an eligible participant under the ESPP, has received awards under the ESPP, and may receive future awards under the ESPP.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law allows a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. The Registrant has included such a provision in Article Seventh of its Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation and certain other persons serving at the request of the corporation in related capacities against amounts paid and expenses incurred in connection with an action or proceeding to which he is or is threatened to be made a party by reason of such position, if such person shall have acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal proceeding, if such person had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; provided that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the adjudicating court determines that such indemnification is proper under the circumstances.
Article III, Section 14 of the Registrant’s Third Amended and Restated By-laws provides that a director or officer of the Registrant:
A.shall be indemnified by the Registrant against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in any action, suit or proceeding (other than an



action by or in the right of the Registrant) brought against such person by virtue of his or her position as a director or officer of the Registrant if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful; and
B.shall be indemnified by the Registrant against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of any action or suit by or in the right of the Registrant brought against such person by virtue of his or her position as a director or officer of the Registrant if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant, other than with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Registrant unless the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses.
In addition, Article III, Section 14 of the Registrant’s Third Amended and Restated By-laws provides that to the extent a director or officer has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs A and B above, such person shall be indemnified by the Registrant against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred. Expenses will be advanced to a director or officer at such person’s request, provided that he or she undertakes to repay the amount received if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to indemnification for such expenses.
The Registrant has purchased directors’ and officers’ liability insurance which would indemnify its directors and officers against damages arising out of certain kinds of claims that might be made against them based on their negligent acts or omissions while acting in their capacity as such.
