Indemnification pursuant to Section 8.101 of the TBOC can be made by the corporation only upon a determination made in the manner prescribed by Section 8.103 of the TBOC that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because the party seeking indemnification has met the applicable standard of conduct for such indemnification. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Section 8.051 of the TBOC requires a corporation to indemnify a governing person, former governing person or person serving an outside enterprise at the corporation&#8217;s request against reasonable expenses actually incurred in connection with a proceeding in which the person is a party because of the person&#8217;s corporate position, if the person was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of the proceeding.</font></div><br><div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:8pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:8pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">2</font></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><a name="sC8FA57AC3D0FE5B75854C323081A4C5B"></a><div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:right;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div></div><br><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Under certain circumstances, a corporation may also advance expenses to any of the above persons.

ITEM 6.     Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company's Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that a director will not be liable to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages for an act or omission in such director's capacity as director, except in the case of (1) breach of such director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders, (2) an act or omission not in good faith that constitutes a breach of duty of the director to the Company or any act or omission that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, (3) a transaction from which the director received an improper benefit, whether or not the benefit resulted from an action taken within the scope of the director's office or (4) an act or omission for which the liability of a director is expressly provided for by statute.  The Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that the Company will indemnify, and advance expenses to, any executive officer or director to the fullest extent permitted by the Texas Business Organizations Code (the "TBOC").
Sections 8.101 and 8.105 of the TBOC permit corporations to indemnify a person who was or is a governing person, officer, employee or agent of such corporation or who serves at the corporation's request as a representative of another enterprise, organization or employee benefit plan (an "outside enterprise"), who was, is, or is threatened to be named a respondent in a legal proceeding by virtue of such person's position in the corporation or in an outside enterprise, but only if the person acted in good faith and reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in the person's official capacity, that the conduct was in or, in the case of all other conduct, that the conduct was not opposed to the corporation or outside enterprise's best interest, and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, the person had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful. A person may be indemnified within the above limitations against judgment and expenses that are reasonable and actually incurred by the person in connection with the proceeding; however, indemnification is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred in a proceeding in which the person is found liable to the corporation or is found to have improperly received a personal benefit and shall not be made in respect of any proceeding in which the person shall have been found liable for willful or intentional misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation, breach of the person's duty of loyalty owed to the corporation or an act or omission not committed in good faith that constitutes a breach of a duty owed by the person to the corporation. Indemnification pursuant to Section 8.101 of the TBOC can be made by the corporation only upon a determination made in the manner prescribed by Section 8.103 of the TBOC that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because the party seeking indemnification has met the applicable standard of conduct for such indemnification.
Section 8.051 of the TBOC requires a corporation to indemnify a governing person, former governing person or person serving an outside enterprise at the corporation's request against reasonable expenses actually incurred in connection with a proceeding in which the person is a party because of the person's corporate position, if the person was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of the proceeding.
2
Under certain circumstances, a corporation may also advance expenses to any of the above persons. Section 8.151 of the TBOC also permits a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance or to make other arrangements on behalf of any of such persons against any liability asserted against and incurred by the person in such capacity, or arising out of the person's status as such a person, without regard to whether the corporation would have the power to indemnify the person against the liability under applicable law.
Under an insurance policy maintained by the Company, its directors and executive officers are insured within the limits and subject to the limitations of the policy, against certain expenses in connection with the defense of certain claims, actions, suits or proceedings and certain liabilities which might be imposed as a result of such claims, actions, suits or proceedings, which may be brought against them by reason of being or having been such directors and executive officers.  The Company has also entered into Indemnification Agreements with its directors and several executive and other officers.  A form of the Indemnification Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on August 8, 2007.
The foregoing discussion of Sections 8.101, 8.105, 8.103, 8.051 and 8.151 of the TBOC and the Company's Restated Articles of Incorporation, Amended and Restated Bylaws and form of Indemnification Agreement is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such statutes, Restated Articles of Incorporation, Amended and Restated Bylaws and form of Indemnification Agreement.
