Section 3. The Association shall indemnify each of its members of the Executive Board, Officers, and employees whether or not then in service as such (and his or her executor, administrator and heirs), against all reasonable expenses actually and necessarily incurred by him in connection with the defense of any litigation to which the individual may have been a party because he is or was a member of the Executive Board, Officer or employee of the Association. The individual shall have no right to reimbursement, in matters in which he has been adjudged liable to the Association for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duties, or was derelict in the performance of his duty as a member of the Executive Board, Officer or employee by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties of his office or employment. The right to indemnify for expenses shall also apply to the expenses of suits which are comprised or settled if the court having jurisdiction of the matter shall approve such settlement.
