Exhibit 10.52
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
This INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered
into as of this 31st day of August, 2000, by and between D and W Holdings, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (including any successors thereto, the "Company"), and
Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx ("Indemnitee").
RECITALS:
A. Competent and experienced persons are reluctant to serve or to
continue to serve corporations as directors, officers or in other capacities
unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or
indemnification (or both) against claims and actions against them arising out of
their service to and activities on behalf of those corporations.
B. The current uncertainties relating to the availability of adequate
insurance for directors and officers have increased the difficulty for
corporations to attract and retain competent and experienced persons.
C. The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") has determined
that the continuation of present trends in litigation will make it more
difficult to attract and retain competent and experienced persons, that this
situation is detrimental to the best interests of the Company's stockholders,
and that the Company should act to assure its directors and officers that there
will be increased certainty of adequate protection in the future.
D. It is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company to obligate
itself contractually to indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law in order to induce them to serve or continue
to serve the Company.
E. Indemnitee is willing to serve and continue to serve the Company on
the condition that he be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by law.
F. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Indemnitee is
agreeing to serve or to continue to serve as a director or officer of the
Company.
AGREEMENTS:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises,
Indemnitee's agreement to serve or continue to serve as a director or officer of
the Company, and the covenants contained in this Agreement, the Company and
Indemnitee hereby covenant and agree as follows:

actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents
by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or
(iii) Consummation of a reorganization, merger, or consolidation

resulting from such Business Combination (including,
without limitation, an entity which as a result of such
transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all

the Board, providing for such Business Combination; or

(iv) Approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete

counterclaim in any action, suit or proceeding), whether civil,
criminal, arbitral, administrative or investigative in nature,
or any inquiry or investigation (including discovery), whether

suit or proceeding.

Indemnifiable Event.

h. Potential Change of Control: shall be deemed to have occurred if
(i) the Company enters into an agreement, the consummation of
which would result in the occurrence of a Change of Control;
(ii) any Person (including the Company) commences a tender offer
that, if consummated, would constitute a Change of Control; or

who are not parties to the particular Claim for which Indemnitee

parties to such Claim, Special Counsel.
j. Special Counsel: shall mean special, independent legal counsel
selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and who has not
otherwise performed material services for the Company or for
Indemnitee within the last three years (other than as Special
Counsel under this Agreement or similar agreements).
k. Subsidiary: shall mean, with respect to any Person, any
corporation or other entity of which a majority of the voting
power of the voting equity securities or equity interest is
owned, directly or indirectly, by that Person.
2. Indemnification and Expense Advancement.
a. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee and hold Indemnitee
harmless to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law, as soon as practicable but in
any event no later than 30 days after written demand is
presented to the Company, from and against any and all
Indemnifiable Liabilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
obligations of the Company under Section 2(a) shall be subject
to the condition that the Reviewing Party shall not have
determined (in a written opinion, in any case in which Special
Counsel is involved) that Indemnitee is not permitted to be
indemnified under applicable law. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall require any determination under this Section
2(a) to be made by the Reviewing Party prior to the disposition
or conclusion of the Claim against the Indemnitee.
5
b. If so requested by Indemnitee, the Company shall advance to
Indemnitee all reasonable Expenses incurred by Indemnitee to the
fullest extent permitted by law (or, if applicable, reimburse
Indemnitee for any and all reasonable Expenses incurred by
Indemnitee and previously paid by Indemnitee) within ten
business days after such request (an "Expense Advance"). The
Company shall be obligated from time to time at the request of
Indemnitee to make or pay an Expense Advance in advance of the
final disposition or conclusion of any Claim. In connection with
any request for an Expense Advance, if requested by the Company,
Indemnitee or Indemnitee's counsel shall submit an affidavit
stating that the Expenses to which the Expense Advances relate
are reasonable. Any dispute as to the reasonableness of any
Expense shall not delay an Expense Advance by the Company. If,
when, and to the extent that the Reviewing Party determines that
(i) Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified with
respect to a Claim under applicable law or (ii) the amount of
the Expense Advance was not reasonable, the Company shall be
entitled to be reimbursed by Indemnitee and Indemnitee hereby
agrees to reimburse the Company without interest (which
agreement shall be an unsecured obligation of Indemnitee) for
(x) all related Expense Advances theretofore made or paid by the
Company in the event that it is determined that indemnification
would not be permitted or (y) the excessive portion of any
Expense Advances in the event that it is determined that such
Expenses Advances were unreasonable; provided, however, that if
Indemnitee has commenced legal proceedings in a court of
competent jurisdiction to secure a determination that Indemnitee
could be indemnified under applicable law, or that the Expense
Advances were reasonable, any determination made by the
Reviewing Party that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be
indemnified under applicable law or that the Expense Advances
were unreasonable; shall not be binding, and the Company shall
be obligated to continue to make Expense Advances, until a final
judicial determination is made with respect thereto (as to which
all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or lapsed),
which determination shall be conclusive and binding. If there
has been a Change of Control, the Reviewing Party shall be
Special Counsel, if Indemnitee so requests. If there has been no
determination by the Reviewing Party or if the Reviewing Party
determines that Indemnitee substantively is not permitted to be
indemnified in whole or part under applicable law or that any
Expense Advances were unreasonable, Indemnitee shall have the
right to commence litigation in any court in the states of
Texas, New York or Delaware having subject matter jurisdiction
thereof and in which venue is proper seeking an initial
determination by the court or challenging any such determination
by the Reviewing Party or any aspect thereof, and the
6
Company hereby consents to service of process and to appear in
any such proceeding. Any determination by the Reviewing Party
otherwise shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and
Indemnitee.
c. Nothing in this Agreement, however, shall require the Company to
indemnify Indemnitee with respect to any Claim initiated by
Indemnitee, other than a Claim solely seeking enforcement of the
Company's indemnification obligations to Indemnitee or a Claim
authorized by the Board.
3. Change of Control. The Company agrees that, if there is a Potential
Change of Control or a Change of Control and if Indemnitee requests in writing
that Special Counsel be the Reviewing Party, then Special Counsel shall be the
Reviewing Party. In such a case, the Company agrees not to request or seek
reimbursement from Indemnitee of any indemnification payment or Expense Advances
unless Special Counsel has rendered its written opinion to the Company and
Indemnitee that the Company was not or is not permitted under applicable law to
indemnify Indemnitee or that such Expense Advances were unreasonable. However,
if Indemnitee has commenced legal proceedings in a court of competent
jurisdiction to secure a determination that Indemnitee could be indemnified
under applicable law or that the Expense Advances were reasonable, any
determination made by Special Counsel that Indemnitee would not be permitted to
be indemnified under applicable law or that the Expense Advances were
unreasonable shall not be binding, and the Company shall be obligated to
continue to make Expense Advances, until a final judicial determination is made
with respect thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefore have been
exhausted or lapsed), which determination shall be conclusive and binding. The
Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees of Special Counsel and to indemnify
Special Counsel against any and all expenses (including attorneys' fees),
claims, liabilities, and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
Special Counsel's engagement pursuant hereto.
4. Establishment of Trust. In the event of a Potential Change of
Control or a Change of Control, the Company shall, upon written request by
Indemnitee, create a trust for the benefit of Indemnitee (the "Trust") and from
time to time upon written request of Indemnitee shall fund the Trust in an
amount equal to all Indemnifiable Liabilities reasonably anticipated at the time
to be incurred in connection with any Claim. The amount to be deposited in the
Trust pursuant to the foregoing funding obligation shall be determined by the
Reviewing Party. The terms of the Trust shall provide that, upon a Change of
Control, (i) the Trust shall not be revoked or the principal thereof invaded,
without the written consent of Indemnitee; (ii) the trustee of the Trust shall
advance, within ten business days of a request by Indemnitee, any and all
reasonable Expenses (any determination concerning the reasonableness of the
Expenses shall be made by the Reviewing Party) to Indemnitee (and Indemnitee
hereby agrees to reimburse the Trust under the circumstances in which Indemnitee
would be required to reimburse the Company for Expense Advances under this
Agreement), (iii) the Trust shall continue to be funded by the Company in
7
accordance with the funding obligation set forth above; (iv) the trustee of the
Trust shall promptly pay to Indemnitee all amounts for which Indemnitee shall be
entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and (v) all unexpended
funds in the Trust shall revert to the Company upon a final determination by the
Reviewing Party or a court of competent jurisdiction, as the case may be, that
Indemnitee has been fully indemnified under the terms of this Agreement. The
trustee of the Trust shall be chosen by Indemnitee, and shall be a financial
institution that is not affiliated with Indemnitee. Nothing in this Section 4
shall relieve the Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement.
5. Indemnification for Additional Expenses. The Company shall indemnify
Indemnitee against any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys' and
expert witnesses' fees) and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (within two
business days of that request) advance those costs and expenses to Indemnitee
that are incurred by Indemnitee if Indemnitee, whether by formal proceedings or
through demand and negotiation without formal proceedings: (a) seeks to enforce
Indemnitee's rights wider this Agreement, (b) seeks to enforce Indemnitee's
rights to expense advancement or indemnification under any other agreement or
provision of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of
Incorporation") or Bylaws (the "Bylaws") now or hereafter in effect relating to
Claims for Indemnifiable Events, or (c) seeks recovery under any directors' and
officers' liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, in each case
regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately prevails; provided that a court of
competent jurisdiction has not found Indemnitee's claim for indemnification or
expense advancements under the foregoing clauses (a), (b) or (c) to be
frivolous, presented for an improper purpose, without evidentiary support, or
otherwise sanctionable under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure No. 11 or an
analogous rule or law, and provided further, that if a court makes such a
finding, Indemnitee shall reimburse the Company for all amounts previously
advanced to Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 5. Subject to the provisos
contained in the preceding sentence, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the
Company waives any and all rights that it may have to recover its costs and
expenses from Indemnitee.
6. Partial Indemnity. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of
this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some, but not all, of
Indemnitee's Indemnifiable Liabilities, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee
for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled.
7. Contribution.
a. Contribution Payment. To the extent the indemnification provided
for under any provision of this Agreement is determined (in the
manner herein above provided) not to be permitted under
applicable law, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee,
shall, to the extent permitted by law, contribute to the amount
of any and all Indemnifiable Liabilities incurred or paid by
Indemnitee for which such indemnification is not permitted.
8
The amount the Company contributes shall be in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Indemnitee,
on the one hand, and of the Company and any and all other
parties (including officers and directors of the Company other
than Indemnitee) who may be at fault (collectively, including
the Company, the "Third Parties"), on the other hand.
b. Relative Fault. The relative fault of the Third Parties and the
Indemnitee shall be determined (i) by reference to the relative
fault of Indemnitee as determined by the court or other
governmental agency or (ii) to the extent such court or other
governmental agency does not apportion relative fault, by the
Reviewing Party after giving effect to, among other things, the
relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and
opportunity to prevent or correct the relevant events, of each
party, and other relevant equitable considerations.
c. The Company and Indemnitee agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation
or by any other method of allocation that does take account of
the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 7(b).
8. Assumption of Defense by the Company. Except as otherwise provided
below, the Company, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, will be entitled to assume the defense of any Claim, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ
his own counsel in connection with such Claim but the fees and expenses of such
counsel incurred after notice from the Company of its assumption of the defense
thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee unless (i) the employment of
counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company, (ii) Indemnitee shall
have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the
Company and Indemnitee in the conduct of such defense or (iii) the Company shall
not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, in each
of which cases the fees and expenses of Indemnitee's counsel shall be subject to
reimbursement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Company shall
not be entitled to assume Indemnitee's defense of any Claim brought by the
Company or as to which Indemnitee shall have reached the conclusion provided for
in clause (ii) above.
9. Burden of Proof. In connection with any determination by the
Reviewing Party or otherwise as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to be
indemnified under any provision of this Agreement or to receive contribution
pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law the
burden of proof shall be on the Company to establish that Indemnitee is not so
entitled.
9
10. No Presumption. For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of
any Claim by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court
approval), or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent,
or an entry of an order of probation prior to judgment shall not create a
presumption (other than any presumption arising as a matter of law that the
parties may not contractually agree to disregard) that Indemnitee did not meet
any particular standard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a court
has determined that indemnification is not permitted by applicable law.
11. Non-exclusivity. The rights of Indemnitee hereunder shall be in
addition to any other rights Indemnitee may have under the Bylaws or Certificate
of Incorporation or the Delaware General Corporation Law or otherwise. To the
extent that a change in the Delaware General Corporation Law (whether by statute
or judicial decision) permits greater indemnification by agreement than would be
afforded currently under this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto
that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded
by that change. Indemnitee's rights under this Agreement shall not be diminished
by any amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or of any other
agreement or instrument to which Indemnitee is not a party, and shall not
diminish any other rights that Indemnitee now or in the future has against the
Company.
12. Liability Insurance. Except as otherwise agreed to by the Company
and Indemnitee in a written agreement, to the extent the Company maintains an
insurance policy or policies providing directors' and officers' liability
insurance, Indemnitee shall be covered by that policy or those policies, in
accordance with its or their terms, to the maximum extent of the coverage
available for any Company director or officer.
13. Period of Limitations. No action, lawsuit, or proceeding may be
brought against Indemnitee or Indemnitee's spouse, heirs, executors, or personal
or legal representatives, nor may any cause of action be asserted in any such
action, lawsuit or proceeding, by or on behalf of the Company, after the
expiration of two years after the statute of limitations commences with respect
to Indemnitee's act or omission that gave rise to the action, lawsuit,
proceeding or cause of action; provided, however, that, if any shorter period of
limitations is otherwise applicable to any such action, lawsuit, proceeding or
cause of action, the shorter period shall govern.
14. Amendments. No supplement, modification or amendment of this
Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the parties
hereto. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless
in a writing signed by the party granting the waiver. No waiver of any of the
provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any
other provisions hereof (whether or not similar) nor shall that waiver
constitute a continuing waiver.
10
15. Other Sources. Indemnitee shall not be required to exercise any
rights that Indemnitee may have against any other Person (for example, under an
insurance policy) before Indemnitee enforces his rights under this Agreement.
However, to the extent the Company actually indemnifies Indemnitee or advances
him Expenses, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of Indemnitee and
shall be entitled to enforce any such rights which Indemnitee may have against
third parties. Indemnitee shall assist the Company in enforcing those rights if
it pays his costs and expenses of doing so. If Indemnitee is actually
indemnified or advanced Expenses by any third party, then, for so long as
Indemnitee is not required to disgorge the amounts so received, to that extent
the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to indemnify Indemnitee or
advance Indemnitee Expenses.
16. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective
successors, assigns (including any direct or indirect successor by merger or
consolidation), spouses, heirs and personal and legal representatives. This
Agreement shall continue in effect regardless of whether Indemnitee continues to
serve as an officer or director of the Company or another enterprise at the
Company's request.
17. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during
the term hereof, that provision shall be fully severable; this Agreement shall
be construed and enforced as if that illegal, invalid, or unenforceable
provision had never comprised a part hereof; and the remaining provisions shall
remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal,
invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement.
Furthermore, in lieu of that illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision, there
shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a provision as similar
in terms to the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible
and be legal, valid, and enforceable.
18. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to
contracts made and to be performed in that state without giving effect to the
principles of conflicts of laws.
19. Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for
reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.
20. Notices. Whenever this Agreement requires or permits notice to be
given by one party to the other, such notice must be in writing to be effective
and shall be deemed delivered and received by the party to whom it is sent upon
actual receipt (by any means) of such notice. Receipt of a notice by the
Secretary of the Company shall be deemed receipt of such notice by the Company.
11
21. Complete Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the complete
understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, other than any
indemnification rights that Indemnitee may enjoy under the Certificate of
Incorporation, the Bylaws or the Delaware General Corporation Law.
22. Effective Date. This Agreement shall be effective as of October 2,
1998.
23. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, all of which were taken together shall be deemed one and the same
instrument.
