(a) The Board shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Board) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a trustee, officer, employee, or agent of the Board, or is or was serving at the request of the Board as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys鈥� fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Board, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person鈥檚 conduct was unlawful.  The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, 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 such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the Board, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such persons conduct was unlawful.

(b) The Board shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Board to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a trustee, officer, employee, or agent of the Board, or is or was serving at the request of the Board as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys鈥� fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Board and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of such person鈥檚 duty to the Board unless and only to the extent that the Court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that,  despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court shall deem proper.

(c) To the extent that a trustee, officer, employee, or agent of the Board has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b), or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys鈥� fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

(d) Any indemnification under paragraphs (a) and (b) (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Board only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the trustee, officer, employee, or agent is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b).  Such determination shall be made (1) by the Board of Trustees by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of trustees who were not parties to such action, suit, or proceeding, or (2) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested trustees so directs, by independent legal counsel in written opinion.

(e) Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding may be paid by the Board in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, or proceeding as authorized 4 by the Board of Trustees in the specific case upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the trustee, officer, employee, or agent to repay such amount unless it shall ultimately be determined that such person is entitled to be indemnified by the Board as authorized in this Article.

(f) The indemnification provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any statute, bylaw, agreement, vote of disinterested trustees or otherwise, both as to action in such person鈥檚 official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a trustee, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person.

(g) The Board may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a trustee, officer, employee, or agent of the Board, or is or was serving at the request of the Board as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person鈥檚 status as such, whether or not the Board would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article.
