Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP ("WilmerHale") has opined as to the legality of the securities being offered by this
registration statement.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 8.51 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act, under which the registrant is governed, provides that a corporation may
indemnify a director who is a party to a proceeding because he is a director against liability incurred in the proceeding if he conducted himself in good faith and he reasonably believed that his conduct was in the best interests of the corporation
or that his conduct was at least not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in the case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Section 8.52 of the Massachusetts Business
Corporation Act requires corporations to indemnify any director who was wholly successful in the defense of any proceeding to which he was a party because he was a director of the corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection
with the proceeding.
Section 8.53 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act provides that, before the final disposition of a
proceeding, a corporation may advance funds to pay for or reimburse the reasonable expenses incurred by a director who is party to such proceeding because he is a director if he delivers to the corporation (a) a written affirmation of his good
faith belief that he has met the relevant standard of good faith described in Section 8.51 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act or that the proceeding involves conduct for which liability has been eliminated pursuant to
Section 2.02 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act and (b) a written undertaking with an unlimited general obligation of the director to repay any funds advanced if he is not entitled to mandatory indemnification under
Section 8.52 and it is ultimately determined, under Section 8.54 or Section 8.55 that he does not meet the relevant standard of conduct described in Section 8.51.
Section 8.56 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act provides that a corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to an officer
of the corporation who is a party to a proceeding because he is an officer of the corporation to the same extent as a director, and, if he is an officer but not a director, to such further extent as may be provided by the articles of organization,
the bylaws, a resolution of the board of directors or contract, except for liability arising out of acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law. Section 8.56 also provides that an
officer of the corporation who is not a director is entitled to mandatory indemnification under Section 8.52, and that the officer may apply to a court for indemnification or an advance for expenses, in each case to the same extent to which a
director may be entitled to indemnification or advance under those provisions.
Section 2.02 of the Massachusetts Business
Corporation Act provides that the articles of organization of a corporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation for monetary damages for breach of a fiduciary duty as a director
notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such liability; provided, however, that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (1) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
shareholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) for improper distributions to under Sections 6.40 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act or
(4) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Article 6 of the Company's Restated
Articles of Organization provides that the registrant shall indemnify each person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened,
- 2 -
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, by reason of the fact that he is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the registrant, or is or was serving, or has agreed to
serve, at the request of the registrant, as a director or officer of, or in a similar capacity with, another organization or in any capacity with respect to any employee benefit plan of the registrant, or by reason of any action alleged to have been
taken or omitted in such capacity against all expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments and fines incurred by such person or on his or her behalf in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, unless such person shall be finally
adjudicated in such action, suit or proceeding not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interests of the registrant or, to the extent such matter relates to service with respect to an employee benefit
plan, in the best interests of the participants or beneficiaries of such employee benefit plan.
Section 2 of Article V of the
registrant's by-laws provides that each director and officer of the registrant, and any person who, at the request of the registrant, serves as a director or officer of another organization shall be indemnified by the registrant against any
cost, expense (including attorneys' fees), judgment, liability and/or amount paid in settlement reasonably incurred by or imposed upon him in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (including any proceeding before any administrative or
legislative body or agency), to which he may be made a party or otherwise involved or with which he shall be threatened, by reason of his being, or related to his status as, a director or officer of the registrant or of any other organization, which
other organization he serves or has served as director or officer at the request of the registrant (whether or not he continues to be an officer or director of the registrant or such other organization at the time such action, suit or proceeding is
brought or threatened), unless such indemnification is prohibited by the Business Corporation Law of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Section 8.57 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act also contains provisions authorizing a corporation to obtain insurance on
behalf of any director or officer of the corporation against liabilities, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify against such liabilities. The registrant maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance
which may protect the registrant's directors and officers against costs and liabilities imposed upon them in their roles with the registrant, including in circumstances under which indemnification would not be permitted under the Massachusetts
Business Corporation Act.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8.
Exhibits.
The Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9. Undertakings.
1.
Item 512(a) of Regulation S-K
. The undersigned registrant 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 the 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; 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;
- 3 -
provided, however,
that paragraphs (i) and (ii) do not apply if the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated
by reference in the 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.
2.
Item 512(b) of Regulation S-K
. The undersigned
registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(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.
3.
Item 512(h) of Regulation S-K
. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange 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 registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant 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
registrant 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.
