(ii) | an officer of the Corporation, or |
(iii) | while a director or officer of the Corporation, serving at the Corporation’s request as a director, officer, partner, member, manager, trustee, employee, or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, or other enterprise, whether for profit or not, |

The term “director” includes, unless the context requires otherwise, the estate or personal representative of a director.
