EMPLOYEES, AND OTHER AGENTS

 

 

Section 1. Definitions. For the purpose of this article,

 

(a) "agent" means any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or other

agent of this corporation, or is or was serving at the request of this corporation as a director, officer,

employee, or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or

other enterprise, or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of a foreign or domestic corporation

that was a predecessor corporation of this corporation or of another enterprise at the request of the

predecessor corporation;

(b) "proceeding" means any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding,

whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative; and

(c) "expenses" includes, without limitation, all attorneys' fees, costs, and any other

expenses incurred in the defense of any claims or proceedings against an agent by reason of his

position or relationship as agent and all attorneys' fees, costs, and other expenses incurred in

establishing a right to indemnification under this Article.

Section 2. Successful Defense by Agent. To the extent that an agent of this corporation has

been successful on the merits in the defense of any proceeding referred to in this Article, or in the

defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, the agent shall be indemnified against expenses

actually and reasonably incurred by the agent in connection with the claim. If an agent either settles

any such claim or sustains a judgment rendered against him, then the provisions of Sections 3

through 5 shall determine whether the agent is entitled to indemnification.

 

Section 3. Actions Brought by Persons Other than the Corporation. Subject to the required

findings to be made pursuant to Section 5, below, this corporation shall indemnify any person who

was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any proceeding other than an action brought

by, or on behalf of, this corporation, or by an officer, director or person granted related status by the

Attorney General, or by the Attorney General on the ground that the defendant director was or is

engaging in self-dealing within the meaning of the California Nonprofit Corporation Law, Section

5233, or by the Attorney General or a person granted related status by the Attorney General for any

breach of duty relating to assets held in charitable trust, by reason of the fact that such person is or

was an agent of this corporation, for all expenses, judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts

actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the proceeding.

 

Section 4. Action Brought by or on Behalf of the Corporation.

 

(a) Claims settled out of court. If any agent settles or otherwise disposes of a

threatened or pending action brought by or on behalf of this corporation, with or without court

approval, the agent shall receive no indemnification for either amounts paid pursuant to the terms

of the settlement or other disposition or for any expenses incurred in defending against the

proceeding, unless it is settled with the approval of the Attorney General.

Page 9 of 12

 


 

(b) Claims and suits awarded against agent. This corporation 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 brought by or on behalf of this corporation by reason of the fact that the person is

or was an agent of this corporation, for all expenses actually and reasonably incurred in connection

with the defense of that action, provided that both of the following are met:

(i) The determination of good faith conduct required by Section 5, below,

must be made in the manner provided for in that Section; and

(ii) Upon application, the court in which the action was brought must

determine that, in view of all of the circumstances of the case, the agent should be entitled to

indemnity for the expenses incurred. If the agent is found to be so entitled, the court shall determine

the appropriate amount of expenses to be reimbursed.

Section 5. Determination of Agent's Good Faith Conduct. The indemnification granted to

an agent in Sections 3 and 4 above is conditioned on the following:

 

(a) Required standards of conduct. The agent seeking reimbursement must be found,

in the manner provided below, to have acted in good faith, in a manner he believed to be in the best

interest of this corporation, and with such care, including reasonable inquiry, as an ordinarily prudent

person in a like position would use in similar circumstances. The termination of any proceeding by

judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or on a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not,

of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith or in a manner which he

reasonably believed to be in the best interest of this corporation or that he had reasonable cause to

believe that his conduct was unlawful. In the case of a criminal proceeding, the person must have

had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

(b) Manner of determination of good faith conduct. The determination that the agent

did act in a manner complying with Paragraph (a) above shall be made by:

(i) the Board by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who are

not parties to the proceeding; or

(ii) the court in which the proceeding is or was pending. Such determination

may be made on application brought by this corporation or the agent or the attorney or other person

rendering a defense to the agent, whether or not the application by the agent, attorney, or other

person is opposed by this corporation.

Section 6. Limitations. No indemnification or advance shall be made under this Article,

except as provided in Sections 2 or 5(b)(ii), in any circumstance when it appears:

 

(a) That the indemnification or advance would be inconsistent with a provision of

the articles, a resolution of the members, or an agreement in effect at the time of the accrual of the

alleged cause of action asserted in the proceeding in which the expenses were incurred or other

amounts were paid, which prohibits or otherwise limits indemnification; or

Page 10 of 12

 


 

(b) That the indemnification would be inconsistent with any condition expressly

imposed by a court in approving a settlement.

Section 7. Advance of Expenses. Expenses incurred in defending any proceeding may be

advanced by this corporation before the final disposition of the proceeding on receipt of an

undertaking by or on behalf of the agent to repay the amount of the advance unless it is determined

ultimately that the agent is entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Article.

 

Section 8. Contractual Rights of Non-directors and Non-officers. Nothing contained in this

Article shall affect any right to indemnification to which persons other than directors and officers

of this corporation, or any subsidiary hereof, may be entitled by contract or otherwise.

 

Section 9. Insurance. The Board may adopt a resolution authorizing the purchase and

maintenance of insurance on behalf of any agent of the corporation against any liability other than

for violating provisions against self-dealing asserted against or incurred by the agent in such capacity

or arising out of the agent's status as such, whether or not this corporation would have the power to

indemnify the agent against that liability under the provisions of this section.

 

ARTICLE VI - RECORDS, REPORTS AND OTHER PROVISIONS

 

Section 1. Maintenance of Corporate Records. The corporation shall keep:

 

(a) Adequate and correct books and records of account;

(b) Minutes in written form of the proceedings of its members, if any, Board, and

committees of the Board.

All such records shall be kept at the corporation's principal executive office, or if its

principal executive office is not in the State of California, at its principal business office in this state.

 

Section 2. Inspection by Directors. Every director shall have the absolute right at any

reasonable time to inspect all books, records, and documents of every kind and the physical

properties of the corporation. This inspection by a director may be made in person or by agent or

attorney, and the right of inspection includes the right to copy and make extracts of documents.

 

Section 3. Construction and Definitions. Unless the context requires otherwise, the general

provisions, rules of construction, and definitions in the California Nonprofit Corporation Law shall

govern the construction of these Bylaws. Without limiting the generality of the above, the masculine

gender includes the feminine and neuter, the singular number includes the plural, the plural number

includes the singular, and the term "person" includes both the corporation and a natural person.

 

Section 4. Amendments. These Bylaws may be amended or repealed by the approval of the

Board.
