reason of being a director or officer and against expenses (including
attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and
reasonably incurred in connection with any action seeking to establish such
liability, in the case of third-party claims, if the officer or director
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 the case of actions
by or in the right of the corporation, if the officer or director acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to

proceeding, whether civil or criminal, or in connection with any settlement
thereof, to which he may be made a party, or in which he may become involved,
