Provides that, in the list of those who can make a determination for purposes of indemnification of a present or former director, officer, employee or agent in a particular case, the determination shall be by a committee of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit, or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, designated by a majority vote of the directors (instead of a committee of directors designated by a majority vote of the directors). Amends the Limited Liability Company Act. Provides that the operating agreement may not contain any provision inconsistent with the voting provisions in the listed Section. Limits situations in which a person may vote to ratify or approve matters.
