Article V

LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

Section 1.    Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors.  The Unit Owners Association shall indemnify every officer and director of the Association and the managing agent against any and all expenses, including counsel fees, reasonably incurred by or imposed upon any officer or director in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding (including settlement of any suit or proceeding if approved by the Board of Directors of the Association) to which he may be a party by reason of being or having been an officer or director of the Association or managing agent whether or not such person is an officer or director or managing agent at the time such expenses are incurred.  The officers and directors of the Association shall not be liable to the Unit Owners for any mistake of judgment, negligence or otherwise, except for their own individual willful misconduct or bad faith.  The officers and directors of the Association shall have no personal liability with respect to any contract or other commitment made by them, in good faith, on behalf of the Condominium  (except to the extent that such officers or directors may also be owners of Condominium Units) and the Association shall indemnify and forever hold each such officer and director free and harmless against any and all liabilities to others on account of any such contract or commitment.  Any right to indemnification provided herein shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which any officer or director of the Association, or former officer or director of the Association, may be entitled.

Section 2.    Common or Interested Directors.  The Directors shall exercise their powers and duties in good faith and with a view to the interests of the Condominium and Association.  No contract or other transaction between the Association and one or more of its Directors, or between the Association and any corporation, firm or association (including the Declarant) in which one or more of the Directors of the Association are directors or officers or are pecuniarily or otherwise interested, is either void or voidable because such Director or Directors are present at the meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof which authorizes or approves the contract or transaction, or because his or their votes are counted for such purposes, if any of the conditions specified in any of the following subparagraphs exists: 
(a)    The fact of the common directorate or interest is disclosed or known to the Board of Directors or a majority thereof or noted in the Minutes, and the Board authorizes, approves or ratifies such contract or transaction in good faith by a vote sufficient for the purpose; or
(b)    The fact of the common directorate or interest is disclosed or known to the Unit Owners Association, or a majority thereof, and they approve or ratify the contract or transaction in good faith or by a vote sufficient for the purpose; or
(c)    The contract or transaction is commercially reasonable to the Condominium at the time it is authorized, ratified, approved or executed. 
Common or interested Directors may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum of any meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof which authorizes, approves or ratifies any contract or transaction, and may vote thereat to authorize any contract or transaction with like force and effect as if he were not such director or officer of such Association or not so interested.

Section 3.
    Insurance Coverage.  The Board of Directors shall obtain on behalf of the Condominium such insurance coverages as may be reasonably necessary in order to effectively indemnify the officers and directors of the Association as provided in Section 1 of this Article V.  The cost of said insurance shall constitute a Common Expense.
