(iii) In the case of any criminal proceeding,
the director had reasonable cause to believe that the act or
omission was unlawful.

(2)  (i) Indemnification may be against judgments,
penalties, fines, settlements, and reasonable expenses actually
incurred by the director in connection with the proceeding.

in the right of the corporation, indemnification may not be made
in respect of any proceeding in which the director shall have
been adjudged to be liable to the corporation.

judgment, order, or settlement does not create a presumption that
the director did not meet the requisite standard of conduct set
forth in this subsection.

(ii) The termination of any proceeding by
conviction, or a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or an
entry of an order of probation prior to judgment, creates a
rebuttable presumption that the director did not meet that
standard of conduct.

take effect July 1, 1989.
