Description
Indemnification of corporate directors and officers. Affirms that a director or officer of a stock or nonstock corporation, for purposes of prescribing the corporation's authority to indemnify an individual made a party to a proceeding, includes an individual who is or was a director or officer of a corporation or who, while a director or officer of the corporation, is or was serving at the corporation's request as a director, officer, manager, partner, trustee, employee, or agent of another foreign or domestic entity. The provision is made effective retroactive to the effective date of amendments that implied that indemnification was available only for directors or officers who were serving at the corporation's request as a director, officer, manager, partner, trustee, employee, or agent of another entity. Amends § 13.1-696 (“Definitions.”), § 13.1-875 (“Definitions.”), of the Code of Virginia. View Full Text »
