KMG CHEMICALS INC FILES (8-K) Disclosing Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Change in Directors or Principal Officers, Financial Statements and Exhibits


(Edgar Glimpses Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement Director Indemnification Agreements On February 25, 2014 the Company approved entering into indemnification agreements with our directors. Those agreements provide, among other things, that we will indemnify each director in the event that he becomes a party or otherwise a participant in any action or proceeding on account of his service as a director (or service for another entity in any capacity at our request) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Under each indemnification agreement, we have agreed to pay, in advance of the final disposition of any such action or proceeding, expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by each director in defending or otherwise responding to such action or proceeding. We have agreed to advance funds to the directors prior to the incurrence of such expenses in order that they may timely pay such expenses as they arise. The indemnification agreements provide for procedures to determine whether the directors have satisfied the applicable standards of conduct that would entitle them to indemnification, which procedures include a presumption that the directors have met such standard of conduct. The contractual rights to indemnification provided by the indemnification agreements are subject to the limitations and conditions specified in those agreements, and are in addition to any other rights the directors may have under our articles of incorporation and bylaws (each as amended from time to time) and applicable law.



A copy of the form of the indemnification agreement with each director is annexed to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.32 hereof and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
