Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") provides
that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other
employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement in connection with specified
actions, suits and proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or
investigative (other than action by or in the right of the corporation--a
"derivative action"), if they acted in good faith and in a manner they
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is
applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only
extends to expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with the
defense or settlement of such action, and the statute requires court approval
before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking
indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides
that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a
corporation's certificate of incorporation, bylaws, disinterested director
vote, stockholder vote, agreement, or otherwise.
Tanning's bylaws currently, and Tanning's certificate of incorporation and
bylaws, as they will be amended and restated immediately prior to this
offering, require Tanning to indemnify to the fullest extent authorized by the
DGCL any person made or threatened to be made a party to an action, suit or
proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason
of the fact that he or she or a person of whom he or she is the legal
representative is or was a director of the officer of Tanning or is or was
serving at the request of Tanning as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans maintained
or sponsored by Tanning. Tanning will also be able to grant indemnification to
its other employees or agents. The amended and restated certificate of
incorporation and bylaws will also require Tanning to advance expenses, as
incurred, to its directors, officers and other agents and employees in
connection with a legal proceeding, to the fullest extent permitted by the
DGCL, subject to certain limited exceptions. The amended and restated
certificate of incorporation and bylaws will also permit Tanning to enter into
indemnification agreements with its directors and officers and to obtain
director and officer liability insurance.
II-1
As permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, Tanning's certificate of
incorporation eliminates the liability of a director to the corporation or its
stockholders for monetary damages for such breach of fiduciary duty as a
director, except for liabilities arising (a) from any breach of the director's
duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; (b) from acts or
omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law; (c) under Section 174 of the DGCL; or (d) from any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Tanning has obtained primary and excess insurance policies insuring its
directors and officers and those of its subsidiaries against certain
liabilities they may incur in their capacity as directors and officers. Under
these policies, the insurer, on behalf of Tanning, may also pay amounts for
which Tanning has granted indemnification to the directors or officers.
Additionally, Mr. Mahan, as an employee of AEA Investors Inc., and Mr. Skelsey,
as a consultant to AEA Investors Inc., are covered by an excess coverage
insurance policy maintained by AEA Investors Inc. against certain liabilities
they may incur in their capacity as directors of Tanning in excess of the
coverage provided by Tanning's director and officer insurance policies.
Additionally, reference is made to the Underwriting Agreement that will be
filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this registration statement, which provides for
indemnification by the Underwriters of Tanning, its directors and officers who
sign the registration statement and persons who control Tanning, under certain
circumstances.

Item 17. Undertakings.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 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 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 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) To provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the
underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in
such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each
purchaser.
(2) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h)
under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration
statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(3) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus 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.
