Section 13 - Indemnification1.The state shall save harmless and indemnify members, officers and employees of and representatives to the board, all of whom shall be deemed officers and employees of the state for purposes of section seventeen of the public officers law, against any claim, demand, suit, or judgment arising by reason of any act or omission to act by such member, officer, employee or representative occurring in the discharge of his duties and within the scope of his service on behalf of such board including any claim, demand, suit or judgment based on allegations that financial loss was sustained by any person in connection with the acquisition, disposition or holding of securities or other obligations. In the event of any such claim, demand, suit or judgment, a member, officer or employee of or representative to the board shall be saved harmless and indemnified, notwithstanding the limitations of subdivision one of section seventeen of the public officers law, unless such individual is found by a final judicial determination not to have acted, in good faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in the best interest of the board or not to have had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was lawful.2.In connection with any such claim, demand, suit, or judgment, any member, officer or employee of or representative to the board shall be entitled to representation by private counsel of his choice in any civil judicial proceeding whenever the attorney general determines based upon his investigation and review of the facts and circumstances of the case that representation by the attorney general would be inappropriate. The attorney general shall notify the individual in writing of such determination that the individual is entitled to be represented by private counsel. The attorney general may require, as a condition to payment of the fees and expenses of such representative, that appropriate groups of such individuals be represented by the same counsel. If the individual or groups of individuals is entitled to representation by private counsel under the provisions of this section, the attorney general shall so certify to the comptroller. Reasonable attorneys fees and litigation expenses shall be paid by the state to such private counsel from time to time during the pendency of the civil action or proceeding, subject to certification that the individual is entitled to representation under the terms and conditions of this section by the chairman of the board, upon the audit and warrant of the comptroller. The provisions of this subdivision shall be in addition to and shall not supplant any indemnification or other benefits heretofore or hereafter conferred upon members, officers, or employees of and representatives to the board by section seventeen of the public officers law, by action of the board or otherwise. The provisions of this subdivision shall inure only to members, officers and employees of and representatives to the board, shall not enlarge or diminish the rights of any other party, and shall not impair, limit or modify the rights and obligations of any insurer under any policy of insurance.N.Y.
