of Delaware, to indemnify each of its employees and agents (other than Directors
and officers) against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines,
settlements, and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection
with any proceeding, arising by reason of the fact that such person is or was an

Director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him or

her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to
indemnify him or her against such liability under the provisions of the General
Corporation Law of Delaware.
