Directors may be removed without cause by a majority of Directors then in office.

Any Director may resign effective upon giving written notice to the President, the Secretary or the Board of Directors, unless the notice specifies a later time for the effectiveness of such resignation.

Each person (including here and hereinafter, the heirs, executors, administrators, or estate of such person) (1) who is or was a director or trustee of the corporation, (2) who is or was an officer, agent or employee of the corporation and as to whom the corporation has agreed to grant such indemnity hereunder, or (3) who is or was serving at the request of the corporation as its representative in the position of a director, officer, trustee, partner, agent, or employee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise and as to whom the corporation has agreed to grant such indemnity hereunder, shall be indemnified by the corporation as of right to the fullest extent permitted or authorized by current or future legislation or by current or future judicial or administrative decision (but, in the case of any future legislation or decision, only to the extent that it permits the corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than permitted prior to the legislation or decision), against all fines, liabilities, settlements, losses, damages, costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, asserted against him or her or incurred by him or her in his or her capacity as such director, officer, trustee, partner, agent, employee or representative, or arising out of his or her status as such director, officer, trustee, partner, agent, employee or representative. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled. The corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any such person against any such fine, liability, cost or expense, including attorney's fees, whether or not the corporation would have the legal power to directly indemnify him or her against such liability.

Costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by a person referred to above in defending a civil or criminal suit, action or proceeding may be paid (and, in the case of directors of the corporation, shall be paid) by the corporation in advance of the final disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking to repay all amounts advanced if it is ultimately determined that the person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized by this Article, and upon satisfaction of other conditions established from time to time by the board of directors or required by current or future legislation (but, with respect to future legislation, only to the extent that it provides conditions less burdensome than those previously provided).

If this Article or any portion of it is invalidated on any ground by a court of competent jurisdiction, the corporation nevertheless indemnifies each director of the corporation to the fullest extent permitted by all portions of this Article that has not been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by law.

SECTION 20. INSURANCE FOR CORPORATE AGENTS

The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, adopt a resolution authorizing the purchase and maintenance of insurance on behalf of the Foundation and any person who is or has served as an agent of the corporation (including a Director, officer, employee, or other agent of the corporation) against any fine, liability, cost or expense, including attorney's fees, other than for violating provisions of law relating to self-dealing (Section 5233 of the California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation Law) 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 Section 5238 of the California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation Law.
