INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
This Agreement, made and entered into as of this 25th day of
September, 1996 ("Agreement"), by and between HumaScan Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Corporation"), and _________________ (the "Indemnitee"):
WHEREAS, recently highly competent persons have become more
reluctant to serve publicly-held corporations as directors, officers, or in
other capacities, unless they are provided with better protection from the risk
of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and
activities on behalf of such corporation; and
WHEREAS, the current impracticability of obtaining adequate
insurance and the uncertainties related to indemnification have increased the
difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the
"Board") has determined that the inability to attract and retain such persons is
detrimental to the best interests of the Corporation's stockholders and that
such persons should be assured that they will have better protection in the
future; and
WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the
Corporation to obligate itself contractually to indemnify such persons to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that such persons will serve or
continue to serve the Corporation free from undue concern that they will not be
adequately indemnified; and
WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance
of Article TENTH of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as
amended, and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto and shall neither be
deemed to be a substitute therefor nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of
Indemnitee thereunder; and
WHEREAS, Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and
to take on additional service for or on behalf of the Corporation on the
condition that he be indemnified according to the terms of this Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the
covenants contained herein, the Corporation and Indemnitee do hereby covenant
and agree as follows:
Section 1. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:
(1) "Change in Control" means a change in control of the
Corporation occurring after the date hereof of a nature that would be required
to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A (or in
response to any similar item on any similar schedule or form) promulgated under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), whether or not the
Corporation is then subject to such reporting requirement, provided, however,
that, without limitation, such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have
occurred if after the date hereof (i) any "person" (as such term is used in
Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Act) is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as
defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of
the Corporation representing 20% or more of the combined voting power of the
Corporation's then outstanding securities without the prior approval of at least
two-thirds of the members of the Board in office immediately prior to such
person attaining such percentage interest; (ii) the Corporation is a party to a
merger, consolidation, sale of assets or other reorganization, or a proxy
contest, as a consequence of which members of the Board in office immediately
prior to such transaction or event constitute less than a majority of the Board
thereafter; or (iii) during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who
at the beginning of such period constituted the Board (including for this
purpose any new director whose election or nomination for election by the
Corporation's stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the
directors then still in office who were directors at the beginning of such
period) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board.
(2) "Corporate Status" means the status of a person who is or
was a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Corporation or of
any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan
or other enterprise which such person is or was serving at the request of the
Corporation.
(3) "Disinterested Director" means a director of the
Corporation who is not and was not a party to the Proceeding in respect of which
indemnification is sought by Indemnitee.
2
(4) "Expenses" means all reasonable attorneys' fees,
retainers, court costs, transcript costs, fees of experts, witness fees, travel
expenses, duplicating costs, printing and binding costs, telephone charges,
postage, delivery service fees, and all other disbursements or expenses of the
types customarily incurred in connection with prosecuting, defending, preparing
to prosecute or defend, investigating, or being or preparing to be a witness in
a Proceeding.
(5) "Independent Counsel" means a law firm, or a member of a
law firm, that is experienced in matters of corporation law and neither
presently is, nor in the past five years has been, retained to represent: (i)
the Corporation or Indemnitee in any other matter material to either such party,
or (ii) any other party to the Proceeding giving rise to a claim for
indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term "Independent
Counsel" shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of
professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in
representing either the Corporation or Indemnitee in an action to determine
Indemnitee's rights under this Agreement.
(6) "Proceeding" means any action, suit, arbitration,
alternate dispute resolution mechanism, investigation, administrative hearing or
any other proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative,
except one initiated by an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11 of this Agreement
to enforce his rights under this Agreement.
Section 2. Services by Indemnitee. Indemnitee agrees to serve
as a [director] [officer] of the Corporation, and, at its request, as a
director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of certain other corporations
and entities. Indemnitee may at any time and for any reason resign from any such
position (subject to any other contractual obligation or any obligation imposed
by operation of law).
Section 3. Indemnification - General. The Corporation shall
indemnify, and advance Expenses to, Indemnitee as provided in this Agreement to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in effect on the date hereof and
to such greater extent as applicable law may thereafter from time to time
permit. The rights of Indemnitee provided under the preceding sentence shall
include, but shall not be limited to, the rights set forth in the other Sections
of this Agreement.
3
Section 4. Proceedings Other Than Proceedings by or in the
Right of the Corporation. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of
indemnification provided in this Section if, by reason of his Corporate Status,
he is, or is threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or
completed Proceeding, other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the
Corporation. Pursuant to this Section, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against
Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually
and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with any such
Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if he acted in good faith and
in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Section 5. Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation.
Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this
Section if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is, or is threatened to be
made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed Proceeding brought by or
in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor. Pursuant to
this Section, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against Expenses actually and
reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with any such
Proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to
be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no indemnification against such Expenses shall be made in respect
of any claim, issue or matter in any such proceeding as to which Indemnitee
shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation if applicable law
prohibits such indemnification unless the Court of Chancery of the State of
Delaware, or the court in which such Proceeding shall have been brought or is
pending, shall determine that indemnification against Expenses may nevertheless
be made by the Corporation.
Section 6. Indemnification for Expenses of Party Who is Wholly
or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to
the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a party to and
is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding, he shall be
indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on
his behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in
such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more
but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Corporation
shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred
by him or on his behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim,
4
issue or matter. For the purposes of this Section and without limiting the
foregoing, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in any such Proceeding
by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful
result as to such claim, issue or matter.
Section 7. Indemnification for Expenses as a Witness.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that
Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a witness in any Proceeding,
he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by
him or on his behalf in connection therewith.
Section 8. Advancement of Expenses. The Corporation shall
advance all Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with
any Proceeding within twenty days after the receipt by the Corporation of a
statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from
time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding.
Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by
Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by an undertaking by
or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses advanced if it shall ultimately
be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such
Expenses.
Section 9. Procedure for Determination of Entitlement to
Indemnification.
(1) To obtain indemnification under this Agreement in
connection with any Proceeding, and for the duration thereof, Indemnitee shall
submit to the Corporation a written request, including therein or therewith such
documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is
reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Corporation shall, promptly
upon receipt of any such request for indemnification, advise the Board in
writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification.
(2) Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification
pursuant to Section 9(a) hereof, a determination, if required by applicable law,
with respect to Indemnitee's entitlement thereto shall be made in such case: (i)
if a Change in Control shall have occurred, by Independent Counsel (unless
Indemnitee shall request that such determination be made by the Board or the
stockholders, in which case in the manner provided for in clauses (ii) or (iii)
of this Section 9(b)) in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall
be delivered to Indemnitee); (ii) if a Change of Control shall not have
5
occurred, (A) by the Board by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of
Disinterested Directors, or (B) if a quorum of the Board consisting of
Disinterested Directors is not obtainable, or even if such quorum is obtainable,
if such quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, either (x) by Independent
Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to
Indemnitee, or (y) by the stockholders of the Corporation, as determined by such
quorum of Disinterested Directors, or a quorum of the Board, as the case may be;
or (iii) as provided in Section 10(b) of this Agreement. If it is so determined
that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be
made within ten (10) days after such determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate
with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to
Indemnitee's entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person,
persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or
information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and
which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such
determination. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys' fees and
disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons
or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Corporation
(irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee's entitlement to
indemnification) and the Corporation hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold
Indemnitee harmless therefrom.
(3) If required, Independent Counsel shall be selected as
follows: (i) if a Change of Control shall not have occurred, Independent Counsel
shall be selected by the Board, and the Corporation shall give written notice to
Indemnitee advising him of the identity of Independent Counsel so selected or
(ii) if a Change of Control shall have occurred, Independent Counsel shall be
selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be
made by the Board, in which event (i) shall apply), and Indemnitee shall give
written notice to the Corporation advising it of the identity of Independent
Counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee or the Corporation, as the case
6
may be, may, within seven days after such written notice of selection shall have
been given, deliver to the Corporation or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a
written objection to such selection. Such objection may be asserted only on the
ground that Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of
"Independent Counsel" as defined in Section 1 of this Agreement, and the
objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such
assertion. If such written objection is made, Independent Counsel so selected
may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until a court has determined
that such objection is without merit. If, within 20 days after submission by
Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 9(a)
hereof, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to,
either the Corporation or Indemnitee may petition the Court of Chancery of the
State of Delaware, or other court of competent jurisdiction, for resolution of
any objection which shall have been made by the Corporation or Indemnitee to the
other's selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as
Independent Counsel of a person selected by such court or by such other person
as such court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom an objection
is so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under
Section 9(b) hereof. The Corporation shall pay any and all reasonable fees and
expenses of Independent Counsel incurred by such Independent Counsel in
connection with its actions pursuant to this Agreement, and the Corporation
shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incident to the procedures of this
Section 9(c), regardless of the manner in which such Independent Counsel was
selected or appointed. Upon the due commencement date of any judicial proceeding
or arbitration pursuant to Section 11(a)(iii) of this Agreement, Independent
Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such
capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then
prevailing).
Section 10. Presumptions and Effects of Certain Proceedings.
(1) If a Change of Control shall have occurred, in making a
determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the
person or persons or entity making such determination shall presume that
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has
submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 9(a) of this
Agreement, and the Corporation shall have the burden of proof to overcome that
presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of
any determination contrary to that presumption.
(2) If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected
under Section 9 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification shall not have made a determination within 60 days after receipt
7
by the Corporation of the request therefor, the requisite determination of
entitlement to indemnification shall be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee
shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by
Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to
make Indemnitee's statement not materially misleading, in connection with the
request for indemnification, or (ii) prohibition of such indemnification under
applicable law provided, however, that such 60-day period may be extended for a
reasonable time, not to exceed an additional 30 days, if the person, persons or
entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification
in good faith require(s) such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of
documentation and/or information relating thereto and provided, further, that
the foregoing provisions of this Section 10(b) shall not apply (i) if the
determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the
stockholders pursuant to Section 9(b) of this Agreement and if (A) within 15
days after receipt by the Corporation of the request for such determination the
Board has resolved to submit such determination to the stockholders for their
consideration at an annual meeting thereof to be held within 75 days after such
receipt and such determination is made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of
stockholders is called within 15 days after such receipt for the purpose of
making such determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within 60 days
after having been so called and such determination is made thereat, or (ii) if
the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent
Counsel pursuant to Section 9(b) of this Agreement.
(3) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue
or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea
of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee
to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the Corporation or, with respect to any criminal
Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was
unlawful.
Section 11. Remedies of Indemnitee.
(1) In the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to
Section 9 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant
8
to Section 8 of this Agreement, (iii) the determination of indemnification is to
be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(b) of this Agreement and
such determination shall not have been made and delivered in a written opinion
within 90 days after receipt by the Corporation of the request for
indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Section
7 of this Agreement within ten days after receipt by the Corporation of a
written request therefor, or (v) payment of indemnification is not made within
ten days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification or such determination is deemed to have been made pursuant to
Section 9 or 10 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an
adjudication in an appropriate court of the State of Delaware, or in any other
court of competent jurisdiction, of his entitlement to such indemnification or
advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, the Indemnitee, at his option, may seek
an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the
rules of the American Arbitration Association. Indemnitee shall commence such
proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in arbitration within 180 days
following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such
proceeding pursuant to this Section 11(a). The Corporation shall not oppose
Indemnitee's right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration.
(2) In the event that a determination shall have been made
pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to
indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to
this Section shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial or
arbitration on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of
that adverse determination.
(3) If a determination shall have been made or deemed to have
been made pursuant to Section 9 or 10 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification, the Corporation shall be bound by such
determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to
this Section, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an
omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee's statement not
materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or
(ii) prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.
(4) The Corporation shall be precluded from asserting in any
judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section that the
9
procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and
enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator
that the Corporation is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.
(5) In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section,
seeks a judicial adjudication of, or an award in arbitration to enforce, his
rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, Indemnitee
shall be entitled to recover from the Corporation, and shall be indemnified by
the Corporation against, any and all expenses (of the kinds described in the
definition of Expenses) actually and reasonably incurred by him in such judicial
adjudication or arbitration, but only if he prevails therein. If it shall be
determined in such judicial adjudication or arbitration that Indemnitee is
entitled to receive all of the indemnification or advancement of expenses
sought, the expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such judicial
adjudication or arbitration shall be appropriately prorated.
Section 12. Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance;
Subrogation.
(1) The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement
of Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable
law, the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Corporation, any
agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No
amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or any provision hereof shall
be effective as to any Indemnitee with respect to any action taken or omitted by
such Indemnitee in his Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or
repeal.
(2) To the extent that the Corporation maintains an insurance
policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers,
employees, agents or fiduciaries of the Corporation or of any other corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise
which such person serves at the request of the Corporation, Indemnitee shall be
covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the
maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, officer,
employee, agent or fiduciary under such policy or policies.
(3) In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the
Corporationshall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the
rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take
10
all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such
documents as are necessary to enable the Corporation to bring suit to enforce
such rights.
(4) The Corporation shall not be liable under this Agreement
to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the
extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any
insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.
Section 13. Duration of Agreement. This Agreement shall
continue until and terminate upon the later of: (a) ten years after the date
that Indemnitee shall have ceased to serve as a director, officer, employee,
agent or fiduciary of the Corporation or of any other corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise which Indemnitee
served at the request of the Corporation; or (b) the final termination of all
pending Proceedings in respect of which Indemnitee is granted rights of
indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder and or any proceeding
commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11 of this Agreement. This Agreement
