Laura A. Fennell, Esq., Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of Intuit, will pass upon the validity of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock offered by this Registration Statement. As of January 1, 2014, Ms. Fennell held 624 shares of Intuit’s common stock, options to purchase 90,429 shares of Common Stock (of which 41,373 shares are exercisable within the next 60 days), and 149,447 restricted stock units (2,894 of which are vested or will vest in the next 60 days).

 

ITEM 6.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

As permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Registrant’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision that eliminates the personal liability of its directors for monetary damages for breach or alleged breach of their duty of care to the fullest extent of the law. In addition, as permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Registrant’s Bylaws provide that:

 

•

the Registrant is required to indemnify its directors and officers and persons serving in such capacities in other business enterprises (including, for example, our subsidiaries) at the request of the Registrant, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, including those circumstances in which indemnification would otherwise be discretionary;

 

•

the Registrant may, in its discretion, indemnify employees and agents in those circumstances where indemnification is not required by the Registrant’s Bylaws;

 

•

the Registrant is required to advance expenses, as incurred, to its directors and executive officers in connection with defending a proceeding (except that it is not required to advance expenses to a person against whom the Registrant brings a claim for breach of the duty of loyalty, failure to act in good faith, intentional misconduct, knowing violation of law or deriving an improper personal benefit);

---

•

the rights conferred in the Registrant’s Bylaws are not exclusive, and the Registrant is authorized to enter into indemnification agreements with its directors, officers and employees; and

 

•

the Registrant may not retroactively amend the Registrant’s Bylaw provisions in a way that is adverse to such directors, officers and employees.

The Registrant’s policy is to enter into indemnity agreements with each of its and its subsidiaries’ directors and officers. The agreements provide that the Registrant will indemnify its directors and officers under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Registrant’s Bylaws. In addition, the indemnity agreements provide that the Registrant will advance expenses (including attorney’s fees) and settlement amounts paid or incurred by the directors and officers in any action or proceeding, including any derivative action by or in the right of the Registrant, on account of their services as directors or officers of the Registrant or as directors or officers of any other company or enterprise when they are serving in such capacities at the request of the Registrant. The Registrant will not be obligated pursuant to the agreements to indemnify or advance expenses to an indemnified party with respect to proceedings or claims initiated by the indemnified party and not by way of defense, except with respect to proceedings specifically authorized by the Registrant’s Board of Directors or brought to enforce a right to indemnification under the indemnity agreement, the Registrant’s Bylaws or any statute or law. Under the agreements, the Registrant is not obligated to indemnify the indemnified party:

 

•

for any expenses incurred by the indemnified party with respect to any proceeding instituted by the indemnified party to enforce or interpret the agreement, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by the indemnified party in such proceeding was not made in good faith or was frivolous;

 

•

for any amounts paid in settlement of a proceeding unless the Registrant consents to such settlement;

 

•

with respect to any proceeding brought by the Registrant against the indemnified party for willful misconduct, unless a court determines that each of such claims was not made in good faith or was frivolous;

 

•

on account of any suit in which judgment is rendered against the indemnified party for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by the indemnified party of securities of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and related laws;

 

•

on account of the indemnified party’s conduct which is finally adjudged to have been knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, or to constitute willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the law; or

 

•

if a final decision by a court having jurisdiction in the matter shall determine that such indemnification is not lawful.

The indemnification provision in the Registrant’s Bylaws, and the indemnity agreements entered into between the Registrant and its directors and executive officers, may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of the Registrant’s officers and directors for liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

The indemnity agreements with the Registrant’s officers and directors require the Registrant to maintain director and officer liability insurance to the extent reasonably available. The Registrant currently maintains a director and officer liability insurance policy.

ITEM 9.

UNDERTAKINGS

 

(a)	The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales of the securities offered hereby are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement.

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment 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 remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement 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.

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act 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 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 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
