Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

        Article XI of the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, contains a provision providing that no director or officer of the Company shall be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer except for breach of the director’s or officer’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, unlawful payment of dividends, unlawful stock redemptions or repurchases and transactions from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit.

        Article XI of the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, also provides that the Company shall indemnify directors and officers of the Company, its consolidated subsidiaries and certain other related entities to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”). Under the DGCL, directors and officers, as well as other employees or persons, may be indemnified against judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with specified actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation — a “derivative action”), and against expenses (including attorney’s fees) in any action (including a derivative action), if they acted in good faith and in a manner they 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 their conduct was unlawful. However, in the case of a derivative action, a person cannot be indemnified for expenses in respect of any matter as to which the person is adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and to the extent a court determines that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses.

        The DGCL also provides that, to the extent a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action or matter, the corporation must indemnify such party against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such party in connection therewith.

        The DGCL provides that expenses incurred by a director or officer in defending any action may be paid by a Delaware corporation in advance of the final disposition of the action upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that such party is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation.

        The Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, states that the right to indemnification conferred in Article XI thereof is a contract right and includes the right to be paid by the Company for expenses incurred in defending proceedings covered by Article XI in advance of their final disposition; provided, however, that, if the DGCL requires, the payment of such expenses in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding shall be made only upon delivery to the Company of an undertaking, by or on behalf of an indemnified director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, or otherwise.

        The DGCL provides that the indemnification and advancement of expenses provided thereby are not exclusive of any other rights granted by bylaws, agreements or otherwise, and provides that a corporation shall have
