Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 722 of the New York Business Corporation Law (the "NYBCL") permits, in general, a New York corporation to indemnify any person made, or threatened to be made, a party to an action or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she was a director or officer of the corporation, or served another entity in any capacity at the request of the corporation, against any judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees actually and necessarily incurred as a result of such action or proceeding, or any appeal therein, if such person acted in good faith, for a purpose he or she reasonably believed to be in, or, in the case of service for another entity, not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, in criminal actions or proceedings, in add ition had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. Section 723 of the NYBCL permits the corporation to pay in advance of a final disposition of such action or preceeding the expenses incurred in defending such action or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay such amount as, and to the extent, required by statute. Section 721 of the NYBCL provides that
indemnification and advancement of expense provisions contained in the NYBCL shall not be deemed exclusive of any rights to which a director or officer seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled, provided no indemnification may be made on behalf of any director or officer if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that his or her acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active or deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or that he or she personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he or she was not legally entitled.
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides in summary, the corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Article 7 of the New York Business Corporation Law, indemnify any and all persons whom it shall have power to indemnify, and the indemnification provided shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any person may be entitled under any By-Law, resolution of shareholders, resolution of directors, agreement, or otherwise, as permitted by this Article, as to action in any capacity in which he served at the request of the corporation.

(2) That for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendments 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.

(b) The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the company’s annual report pursuant to Section 13 (a) or Section 15 (d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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 dee med to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the above-described provisions or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.
