corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a
manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best
interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment or settlement,
conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of
itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a
manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best

proceeding, that the person had reasonable cause to believe that his or her
conduct was unlawful.

by the Corporation as authorized in this Article V. Such expenses (including
attorneys fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and
agents may be so paid on such terms and conditions, if any, as the Corporation

Corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability
under the provisions of this Article.

director, officer, employee or agent of such merging corporation, or was serving
at the request of such merging corporation as a director, officer, employee or
agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this
Article V with respect to the surviving corporation as such person would have

employee benefit plan; and references to "serving at the request of the
