ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

 

Subdivision E of Part 8 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act (the “MBCA”) authorizes the provisions, described below, contained in our Restated Articles of Organization and amended and restated by-laws. In addition, Sections 8.30 and 8.42 of the MBCA provide that if an officer or director discharges his or her duties in good faith and with the care that a person in a like position would reasonably exercise under similar circumstances and in a manner the officer or director reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation, he or she will not be liable for such action.

 

Article 6(d) of our Restated Articles of Organization also provides that the liability of our directors shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by the MBCA and Section 6.6 of our amended and restated by-laws provides as follows:

 

1



 

Section 6.6 Indemnification of Officers, Directors and Members of Scientific Advisory Board.  The corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each person, now or hereafter an officer or Director of the corporation, or a member of the Scientific Advisory Board, from and against any and all claims and liabilities to which he may be or become subject by reason of his being or having been an officer, Director or member of the Scientific Advisory Board of the corporation or by reason of his alleged acts or omissions as an officer, Director or member of the Scientific Advisory Board of the corporation, and shall indemnify and reimburse each such officer, Director and member of the Scientific Advisory Board against and for any and all legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by him in connection with any such claims and liabilities, actual or threatened, whether or not at or prior to the time which so indemnified, held harmless and reimbursed he has ceased to be an officer, Director or member of the Scientific Advisory Board of the corporation, except with respect to any matter as to which such officer, Director or member of the Scientific Advisory Board of the corporation shall have been adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of the corporation; provided, however, that prior to such final adjudication the corporation may compromise and settle any such claims and liabilities and pay such expenses, if such settlement or payment or both appears, in the judgment of a majority of those members of the Board of Directors who are not involved in such matters, to be for the best interest of the corporation as evidenced by a resolution to that effect adopted after receipt by the corporation of a written opinion of counsel for the corporation, that, based on the facts available to such counsel, such officer, Director or member of the Scientific Advisory Board of the corporation has not been guilty of acting in a manner that would prohibit indemnification.

 

Such indemnification may include payment by the corporation of expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by the person indemnified to repay such payment if he shall be adjudicated not to be entitled to indemnification under this section.

 

The registrant shall similarly indemnify and hold harmless persons who serve at its express written request as directors or officers of another organization in which the corporation owns shares or of which it is a creditor.

 

The right of indemnification herein provided shall be in addition to and not exclusive of any other rights to which any officer, Director or member of the Scientific Advisory Board of the corporation, or any such persons who serve at its request as aforesaid, may otherwise be lawfully entitled. As used in this Section, the terms “officer,” “Director,” and “member of the Scientific Advisory Board” include their respective heirs, executors, and administrators.”

 

We also carry insurance policies insuring our directors and officers against certain liabilities that they may incur in their capacity as directors and officers.

ITEM 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

 

(a)                                 The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1)                                 To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i)                                     To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii)                                  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

 

(iii)                               To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

3



 

provided, however; that Paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934  that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

 

2.                                      That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

3.                                      To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(b)                                 The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(c)                                  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
