      and officers if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or its shareholders (and, if a criminal proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their
      conduct was unlawful) against: (a) expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees), judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding

      directors, officers, employees, or agents). If the articles of incorporation include a provision eliminating or limiting the liability of a director, however, a corporation may indemnify a director for certain expenses and liabilities without a
      determination that the director met the applicable standards of conduct, unless the director received a financial benefit to which he or she was not entitled, intentionally inflicted harm on the corporation or its shareholders, violated Section 551
      of the MBCA, or intentionally committed a criminal act. In connection with an action by or in the right of the corporation, such indemnification may be for expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees) actually and reasonably incurred. In connection with an
      action, suit, or proceeding other than an action, suit, or proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, such indemnification may be for expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees) actually and reasonably incurred, and for judgments, penalties, fines,
      and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred.</div>
    <div><br>
    </div>
    <div style="text-indent: 36pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">In certain circumstances, the MBCA further permits advances to cover such expenses before a final disposition of the proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking, which need not be secured and which
      may be accepted without reference to the financial ability of the person to make repayment, by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay such amounts if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she has not met the applicable standard of
      conduct. If a provision in the articles of incorporation or bylaws, a resolution of the board or shareholders, or an agreement makes indemnification mandatory, then the advancement of expenses is also mandatory, unless the provision, resolution, or
      agreement specifically provides otherwise.</div>
    <div><br>
    </div>
    <div style="text-indent: 36pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Indemnification under the MBCA is not exclusive of other rights to indemnification to which a person may be entitled under the Company&#8217;s charter documents or a contractual agreement. However, the
      total amount of expenses advanced or indemnified from all sources may not exceed the amount of actual expenses incurred by the person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses. The indemnification provided for under the MBCA continues as to
      a person who ceases to be a director or officer.</div>
    <div><br>
    </div>
    <div style="text-indent: 36pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">The MBCA permits the Company to purchase insurance on behalf of its directors and officers against liabilities arising out of their positions with the Company (or positions held with another entity
      at the request of the Company), whether or not such liabilities would be within the above indemnification provisions. Pursuant to this authority, the Company maintains such insurance on behalf of its directors and officers.</div>

      such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or
      controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
      such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</div>

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company is obligated under its Restated Articles of Incorporation and its Amended and Restated Bylaws to indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law,
      including the Michigan Business Corporation Act (the "MBCA"), in connection with any actual or threatened civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit, or proceeding in which such person is a witness or which is brought again such
      person in his or her capacity as a director, officer, employee, agent, or fiduciary of the Company or of any corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, or other enterprise which such person was serving at the request of
      the Company.
Under Sections 561 through 571 of the MBCA, directors and officers of a Michigan corporation may be entitled to indemnification by the corporation. The MBCA provides for indemnification of directors
      and officers if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or its shareholders (and, if a criminal proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their
      conduct was unlawful) against: (a) expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding
      (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) arising out of a position with the Company (or with some other entity at the Company's request); and (b) expenses (including attorneys' fees) and amounts paid in settlement actually and
      reasonably incurred in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Company, unless the director or officer is found liable to the Company; provided that an appropriate court could determine that he
      or she is nevertheless fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for reasonable expenses incurred. The MBCA requires indemnification for expenses to the extent that a director or officer is successful in defending against any such action, suit, or
      proceeding.
The MBCA generally requires that the indemnification provided for in (a) and (b) of the preceding paragraph be made only on a determination that the director or officer met the applicable standard of
      conduct (i) by a majority vote of a quorum of the board of directors who were not parties or threatened to be made parties to the action, suit or proceeding; (ii) if a quorum cannot be so obtained, by a majority vote of a committee of not less than
      two disinterested directors; (iii) by independent legal counsel; (iv) by all independent directors not parties or threatened to be made parties to the action, suit, or proceeding; or (v) by the shareholders (excluding shares held by interested
      directors, officers, employees, or agents). If the articles of incorporation include a provision eliminating or limiting the liability of a director, however, a corporation may indemnify a director for certain expenses and liabilities without a
      determination that the director met the applicable standards of conduct, unless the director received a financial benefit to which he or she was not entitled, intentionally inflicted harm on the corporation or its shareholders, violated Section 551
      of the MBCA, or intentionally committed a criminal act. In connection with an action by or in the right of the corporation, such indemnification may be for expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred. In connection with an
      action, suit, or proceeding other than an action, suit, or proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, such indemnification may be for expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred, and for judgments, penalties, fines,
      and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred.
In certain circumstances, the MBCA further permits advances to cover such expenses before a final disposition of the proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking, which need not be secured and which
      may be accepted without reference to the financial ability of the person to make repayment, by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay such amounts if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she has not met the applicable standard of
      conduct. If a provision in the articles of incorporation or bylaws, a resolution of the board or shareholders, or an agreement makes indemnification mandatory, then the advancement of expenses is also mandatory, unless the provision, resolution, or
      agreement specifically provides otherwise.
Indemnification under the MBCA is not exclusive of other rights to indemnification to which a person may be entitled under the Company's charter documents or a contractual agreement. However, the
      total amount of expenses advanced or indemnified from all sources may not exceed the amount of actual expenses incurred by the person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses. The indemnification provided for under the MBCA continues as to
      a person who ceases to be a director or officer.
The MBCA permits the Company to purchase insurance on behalf of its directors and officers against liabilities arising out of their positions with the Company (or positions held with another entity
      at the request of the Company), whether or not such liabilities would be within the above indemnification provisions. Pursuant to this authority, the Company maintains such insurance on behalf of its directors and officers.

Item 9.
Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned Company hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in
      the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would
      not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in
      volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the
      registration statement;
provided, however,
that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
      contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement;
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
      offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering; and
(b) The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d)
      of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new
      registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
      otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
      such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or
      controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
      such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
