The Registrant is empowered by Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, subject to the procedures and limitations stated therein, to
indemnify any person against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments,
fines and amount paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or
her in the defense of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding in which such person is made a party by reason of his or her being
or having been a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant, or
serving or having served at the request of the Registrant as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another enterprise. The statute provides that
this indemnification is not exclusive of other rights of indemnification to
which a person may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders
or disinterested directors, or otherwise.
3
The Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Registrant provide,
subject to certain procedures and limitations stated therein, that the
Registrant shall indemnify any person against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him or her in the defense of any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding in which such person is made a party by reason of
his or her being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant, or
being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant and serving or
having served at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee
or agent of another enterprise. The indemnification is not exclusive of other
rights of indemnification to which a person may be entitled under any statute,
bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or
otherwise.
The Registrant maintains an insurance policy under which its officers and
directors, and officers and directors of its subsidiary Centralia Savings Bank,
are insured, within the limits and subject to the limitations of the policy,
against certain losses arising from any claim or claims made against them in
their respective capacities of directors or officers. The policy also provides
for reimbursement to the Registrant for any indemnification of such officers
and directors.
ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.
Not applicable.
ITEM 8. EXHIBITS.
The exhibits filed herewith or incorporated by reference herein are set
forth in the Exhibit Index filed as part of this registration statement on page
7 hereof.
ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
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 of 1933;
(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; provided, however, that any increase or decrease
in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities
offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from
the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be
reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to
Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in
the effective 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;
4
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8, and the information required
to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained
in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, 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.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities 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 deemed to be the initial BONA FIDE offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 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
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 Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
