Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
As permitted by the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of 1988, as amended ("PBCL"), the Company's bylaws provide that a director shall not be personally liable for monetary damages for any action taken, or any failure to take any action, unless the director breaches or fails to perform the
2
duties of his office under the PBCL and such breach or failure to perform constitutes self-dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness. These provisions of the Company's bylaws, however, do not apply to the responsibility or liability of a director pursuant to any criminal statute, or to the liability of a director for the payment of taxes pursuant to local, state or federal law. These provisions offer persons who serve on the board of directors protection against awards of monetary damages for negligence in the performance of their duties.
The Company's bylaws also provide that directors or officers made a party to, or threatened to be made a party to, or otherwise involved in, any proceeding, because he or she is or was a representative of the Company or is or was serving as a representative of another corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, on the Company's behalf, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by Pennsylvania law against all expenses, liabilities and losses reasonably incurred by or imposed upon him or her, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed 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 Company and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. Indemnification is not available, however, if a court determines that the act or failure to act giving rise to the claim constitutes willful misconduct or recklessness.
Pursuant to the Company's bylaws, amending the provisions to reduce the limitation of director's liability or limit the right to indemnification requires unanimous vote of the directors or a majority vote of the shareholders.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not Applicable.
The Company has submitted the Plan to the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") in a timely manner, and undertakes to submit any amendments thereto to the IRS in a timely manner. The Company further undertakes to make all changes required by the IRS in order to qualify the Plan under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code.
