Companies
may indemnify directors against the legal and financial costs of
proceedings brought by third parties. This does not extend to the
legal
costs of unsuccessful defence of criminal proceedings, fines imposed
by
criminal proceedings and fines imposed by regulatory
bodies;
|
·
|
Companies
may pay directors' defence costs as they are incurred in civil or
criminal
cases, even if the action is brought by the company itself. However,
a
director in this situation will be required to pay any damages awarded
to
the company and to reimburse the company if he fails in his defence
(unless the company has indemnified him in respect of his legal costs
incurred in civil third party
proceedings);
|
·
|
Companies
may not provide indemnities to directors of UK-incorporated associated
companies where it would be unlawful for that indemnity to be provided
by
the associated company;
|
·
|
Companies
may indemnify officers other than
directors;
|
·
|
Funds
provided by the company to a director for these purposes are permitted
under section 330 of the Companies Act
1985;
|
·
|
Any
indemnities provided by a company will need to be disclosed in the
directors' report and shareholders will be able to inspect any
indemnification agreement; and
|
·
|
A
decision to indemnify directors under the new rules can be taken
by a
Company's board and no shareholder vote is required by the
legislation.
