Item 14. | Indemnification of Directors and Officers. |
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware provides as follows:
A corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other
than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason
of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer,
employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at
the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee
or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorneys fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good
faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interest of the corporation, and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of
any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent
shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did
not act in good faith and in a manner which the person
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal
action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his
conduct was unlawful.
A corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the
right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by
reason of the fact that the person is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the corporation as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses
(including attorneys fees) actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of
such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a
manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation and except that no
indemnification shall be made in respect to any claim, issue or
matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the
II-1
Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was
brought shall determine upon application that, despite the
adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances
of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such
other court shall deem proper.
As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, we have
included in our amended and restated certificate of
incorporation a provision to eliminate the personal liability of
our directors for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary
duties as directors, subject to certain exceptions. In addition,
our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws
provide that we are required to indemnify our officers and
directors under certain circumstances, including those
circumstances in which indemnification would otherwise be
discretionary, and we are required to advance expenses to our
officers and directors as incurred in connection with
proceedings against them for which they may be indemnified.
The underwriting agreement provides that the underwriters are
obligated, under certain circumstances, to indemnify our
directors, officers and controlling persons against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
Reference is made to the form of underwriting agreement filed as
Exhibit 1.1 hereto.
The Master Agreement by and between the company and Clear
Channel Communications provides for indemnification by the
company of Clear Channel Communications and its directors,
officers and employees for certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act.
We maintain directors and officers liability insurance for the
benefit of our directors and officers.

Item 17. | Undertakings. |
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) That for purposes of determining any liability under
the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the
form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement
in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to
Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities
Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of this registration
statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2) That for the purpose of determining any liability under
the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that
contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To provide to the underwriters at the closing specified
in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations
and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
(4) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to
the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933
and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
