(a) A limited liability company shall reimburse a member of a member-managed company or the manager of a manager-managed company for any payment made by the member or in the course of the member's or manager's activities on behalf of the company, if the member or manager complied with sections 34-255f and 34-255h in making the payment.
(b) In the ordinary course of its duties and affairs, a limited liability company may indemnify and hold harmless a person with respect to any claim or demand against the person and any debt, obligation or other liability incurred by the person by reason of the person's former or present capacity as a member, manager or officer if the claim, demand, debt, obligation or other liability does not arise from the person's breach of section 34-255d, 34-255f or 34-255h.
(c) A limited liability company shall indemnify and hold harmless a person who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding with respect to any claim or demand against the person by reason of the person's former or present capacity as a member, manager or officer of the company from and against reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees and costs incurred by the person in connection with such claim or demand. As used in this subsection, “proceeding” means any threatened, pending or completed action, arbitration, investigation, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal or administrative and whether formal or informal.
(d) In the ordinary course of its activities and affairs, a limited liability company may advance reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees and costs, incurred by a person in connection with a claim or demand against the person by reason of the person's former or present capacity as a member, manager or officer of the company if the person promises to repay the company if the person ultimately is determined not to be entitled to be indemnified under subsection (b) of this section.
(e) A limited liability company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of a member, manager or officer of the company against liability asserted against or incurred by the member, manager or officer in that capacity or arising from that status even if, under subdivision (7) of subsection (c) of section 34-243d, the operating agreement could not eliminate or limit the person's liability to the company for the conduct giving rise to the liability.
