Item 6.
Indemnification Of Directors And Officers
Sections 721-725 of the New York Business Corporation Law provide for or permit the indemnification of directors and officers of the Company under certain circumstances. Generally, a corporation may indemnify a director or officer of the corporation against any judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, if such director or officer acted, in good faith, for a purpose which he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation and, in criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
II-1
Article XI of the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that to the fullest extent elimination or limitation of director liability is permitted by the New York Business Corporation Law, no directors of the Company shall be liable to the Company or its shareholders for any breach of duty in such capacity.
The Company's bylaws contain detailed and comprehensive procedures to address the circumstances under which an officer or director of the Company may seek indemnification and under which the board or other persons, including the Company's shareholders, may authorize indemnification payments. A copy of the Company's bylaws was included as an exhibit to the Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 16, 2008. Pursuant to Employment Agreements between the Company and certain of its executive officers, the Company shall indemnify such executives for acts or decisions made by such executives in good faith while performing services for the Company, and the Company shall use its best efforts to obtain insurance coverage relating thereto. Finally, under a policy of directors' and officers' insurance with total annual limits of $55,000,000, the directors and officers of the Company are insured, subject to the limits, exceptions and other terms and conditions of such policy, against liability for claims made against them for any actual or alleged error or misstatement or misleading statement or act or omission or neglect or breach of duty while acting in their individual or collective capacities as directors or officers.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and therefore is unenforceable.
