indemnifies and holds
harmless Indemnitee against
all Expenses actually
and reasonably incurred
by Indemnitee or
on Indemnitee’s
behalf in connection therewith.
11.
Security for Indemnification
Obligations. The Corporation
may at any time
and in any manner,
at the discretion of
the Board, secure the Corporation’s
obligations to indemnify or advance Expenses to Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement.
12.
Non-exclusivity,
No Duplication of
Payments. The rights
of Indemnitee under
this Agreement shall
be in addition
to any other
rights with respect
to indemnification, advancement of
Expenses or otherwise
that Indemnitee may have
under the Articles
of Incorporation or Bylaws,
the Florida Business Corporation
Act or otherwise; provided,
however, that
the Corporation shall not
be
liable under this Agreement to make any payment to
Indemnitee under this Agreement to the extent Indemnitee has
otherwise actually
received
payment (under
any insurance
policy,
provision
of the
Articles of
Incorporation
or Bylaws,
or otherwise)
of the
amounts
otherwise payable
under this
Agreement.
The Corporation’s
obligation
to indemnify
or advance
expenses under
this Agreement
to
Indemnitee who
is or
was serving
at the
request of
the Corporation
as a
director,
officer,
partner,
trustee, employee
or agent
of any
other entity
shall be
reduced by
any amount
Indemnitee has
actually received
as indemnification
or advancement
of expenses
from
that other entity.
13.
Amendments.
To the
extent that the provisions of this
Agreement are held to be inconsistent
with the provisions of
the Florida Business Corporation Act
(including Section 607.0859(1) thereof), the provisions
of that statute shall
govern. To the extent
that the Florida Business Corporation Act is later amended to permit a Florida corporation, without the need for shareholder approval,
to provide
to its
directors
greater rights
to indemnification
or advancement
of Expenses
than
those specifically
set forth
here,
this
Agreement shall be deemed
amended to require the greater
indemnification or more liberal
advancement of Expenses to
Indemnitee,
in
each
case
consistent
with
the
Florida
Business
Corporation
Act
as
so
amended
from
time
to
time.
Otherwise,
no
supplement,
modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed
in writing by the Corporation and Indemnitee.
14.
Subrogation. In the event of payment
under this Agreement, the Corporation shall be
subrogated to the extent of that
payment
to all
of the
rights of
recovery
of Indemnitee,
who shall
execute
all papers
required
and
shall do
everything that
may
be
necessary to secure those rights, including the execution of documents necessary to enable the Corporation effectively
to bring suit to
enforce those rights; provided, however, that any rights of recovery of Indemnitee pursuant to
any liability insurance policy separately
paid for by Indemnitee shall not be subject to subrogation under this Section
14 except that any amounts recovered under such policy
shall be subject to Section 12 hereof.
15.
Waiver.
No waiver of
any of the
provisions of
this Agreement shall
be deemed or
shall constitute a
waiver of
any
other provisions of this Agreement (whether or not similar) nor shall such
a waiver constitute a continuing waiver.
16.
Binding Effect, Etc. This Agreement shall be binding
on and inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by
the parties
to this Agreement and their respective successors or assigns (including any direct or indirect successor or assign by purchase, merger,
consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation), spouses, heirs, and personal and
legal representatives.
17.
Applicability
of
Agreement.
This
Agreement
shall
apply
retroactively
with
respect
to
acts
or
omissions
of
Indemnitee occurring
since the
date that
Indemnitee first
became a
Director or
Officer,
and this
Agreement shall
continue in
effect
regardless of whether
Indemnitee continues to
serve as a Director
or Officer,
but only in respect
of acts or omissions
occurring prior
to the termination of Indemnitee’s service
as a Director or Officer.
18.

or provisions

provisions of this Agreement
(including without
limitation, each portion
of any Section of

to be invalid,
illegal, or unenforceable,
that is not itself invalid, illegal, or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected
or impaired by it;
(b)
the provision or provisions shall be deemed reformed
to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law
and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties to this Agreement;
and
(c)
to the fullest extent possible, the
provisions of this Agreement (including,
without limitation, each portion
of any Section of this Agreement containing any

or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid,
illegal,
or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent
manifested by it.
