"Expenses," as used in this bylaw, shall have the same meaning as in that section of the Corporations Code.

On written request to the board by any person seeking indemnification under Corporations Code Section 7237(b) or section 7237(c), the board shall promptly decide under Corporations Code Section 7237(e) whether the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Corporations Code Section 7237(b) or Section 7237(c) has been met and, if so, the board shall authorize indemnification. If the board cannot authorize indemnification, because the number of directors who are parties to the proceeding with respect to which indemnification is sought prevents the formation of a quorum of directors who are not parties to that proceeding, the board shall promptly call a meeting of members. At that meeting, the members shall determine under Corporations Code Section 7237(e) whether the applicable standard of conduct has been met and, if so, the members present at the meeting in person or by proxy shall authorize indemnification.

To the fullest extent permitted by law and except as otherwise determined by the board in a specific instance, expenses incurred by a person seeking indemnification under Article XI of these bylaws in defending any proceeding covered by those Sections shall be advanced by the corporation before final disposition of the proceeding, on receipt by the corporation of an undertaking by or on behalf of that person that the advance will be repaid unless it is ultimately found that the person is entitled to be indemnified by the corporation for those expenses.

As part of the annual report to all members, or as a separate document if no annual report is issued, the corporation shall annually prepare and mail, deliver, or send by electronic transmission to its members and furnish to its directors a statement of any transaction or indemnification of the following kinds within 120 days after the end of the corporation's fiscal year:

(a) Unless approved by members under Corporations Code Section 7233(a), any transaction (i) to which the corporation, its parent, or its subsidiary was a party, (ii) which involved more than $50,000 or was one of a number of such transactions with the same person involving, in the aggregate, more than $50,000, and (iii) in which either of the following interested persons had a direct or indirect material financial interest (a mere common directorship is not a material financial interest):

(1) Any director or officer of the corporation, its parent, or its subsidiary;

(2) Any holder of more than 10 percent of the voting power of the corporation, its parent, or its subsidiary.

The statement shall include a brief description of the transaction, the names of interested persons involved, their relationship to the corporation, the nature of their interest in the transaction, and, when practicable, the amount of that interest, except that, in a partnership in which such person is a partner, only the partnership interest need be stated.

(b) A brief description of the amounts and circumstances of any loans, guaranties, indemnifications, or advances aggregating more than $10,000 paid during the fiscal year to any officer or director of the corporation under Article XI of these bylaws, unless the loan, guaranty, indemnification, or advance has already been approved by the members under Corporations Code Section 5034, or the loan or guaranty is not subject to Corporations Code Section 7235(a).

Article XII - Insurance

This corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any "agent", as that term is used in Corporations Code Section 7237, of the corporation against any liability asserted against or incurred by the agent in such capacity or arising out of the agent's status as such whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify the agent against such liability under the provisions of Corporations Code Section 7237.

Article XIII - Amendments

These Bylaws may be amended or altered by two-thirds (2/3) vote of the Board of Directors, or by a majority of the members at any regular or special meeting, providing the notice for the meeting includes the proposals for amendments or alterations and they shall be submitted to the Board or the members in writing at least ten (10) days in advance of the meeting at which they are to be acted upon.
