  he was a director of the corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with
  the proceeding.
  </DIV>
  
  <DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;8.56 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act provides that a corporation may
  indemnify and advance expenses to an officer of the corporation who is a party to a proceeding
  because he is an officer of the corporation to the same extent as a director, and, if he is an
  officer but not a director, to such further extent as may be provided by the articles of
  organization, the bylaws, a resolution of the board of directors or contract, except for liability
  arising out of acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
  knowing violation of law. Section&nbsp;8.56 also provides that an officer of the corporation who is not
  a director is entitled to mandatory indemnification under Section&nbsp;8.52, and that the officer may
  apply to a court for indemnification or an advance for expenses, in each case to the same extent to
  which a director may be entitled to indemnification or advance under those provisions.
  </DIV>
  
  <DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;8.57 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act also contains provisions
  authorizing a corporation to obtain insurance on behalf of any director or officer of the
  corporation against liabilities, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify
  against such liabilities. The registrant maintains director and officer liability insurance for the
  benefit of its directors and officers.

  <DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;Six of our Articles of Organization, as amended and in effect, eliminates the personal

  involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;under Sections&nbsp;61 or 62 of the

  Section&nbsp;6.40 and 6.41 under the new Massachusetts Business Corporation Law that went into effect on
  July&nbsp;1, 2004), (iv)&nbsp;for any transaction from which such director derived an improper personal
  benefit. This provision is intended to afford directors additional protection, and limit their
  potential liability, from suits alleging a breach of duty of care by a director. We believe that
  this provision will assist us in maintaining and securing the services of directors who are not
  employees of the Company. As a result of the inclusion of such a provision, stockholders may be
  unable to recover monetary damages against directors for actions taken by them that constitute
  fiduciary duties, although it may be possible to obtain injunctive or other equitable relief with
  respect to such actions. If equitable remedies are found not to be available to stockholders for
  any particular case, stockholders may not have any effective remedy against the challenged conduct.

  arising from their service as directors or officers to the fullest extent permitted by
  Massachusetts law, which generally requires that the individual act in good faith and in a manner
  he reasonably believes to be in or not opposed to the Company&#146;s best interests.

  Pursuant to Rule 416(a), this Registration Statement also covers such additional securities
  that may be offered to prevent dilution as a result of a stock split, stock dividend, or other
  similar transaction.
  (2)
  This estimate is made pursuant to Rule 457(c) and (h) under the Securities Act of 1933, as
  amended (the "Securities Act"), solely for purposes of determining the registration fee and is
  based upon the market value of outstanding shares of the Company's common stock on November
  14, 2007, utilizing the average ($16.10) of the high ($16.26) and low ($15.93) sale prices
  reported on the NASDAQ Global Market for that date.
  This registration statement is being filed to register an additional 150,000 shares of our
  common stock issuable pursuant to the provisions of our 1992 Employees' Stock Purchase Plan, as
  recently amended. The earlier registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange
  Commission ("SEC") on June 9, 2000 (File No. 333-38998) relating to our 1992 Employees' Stock
  Purchase Plan is incorporated by reference into this registration statement. This incorporation is
  made under General Instruction E of Form S-8 regarding the registration of additional securities of
  the same class as other securities for which there has been filed a registration statement on Form
  S-8 relating to the same employee benefit plan.

  the SEC will automatically update and supersede information contained in documents filed earlier
  with the SEC or contained in this registration statement. We incorporate by reference in this
  registration statement the documents listed below and any future filings that we may make with the
  SEC under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Ac of 1934, as amended (the
  "Exchange Act"), until all of the securities that may be offered by this registration statement are
  sold, except that we are not incorporating by reference any information that is not deemed to be
  "filed" under those sections.

  Item 6.
  Indemnification of Directors and Officers
  .
  We are incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Massachusetts
  Business Corporation Act, which became effective on July 1, 2004 and under which we are governed,
  provides at Section 8.51 that a corporation may indemnify a director who is a party to a proceeding
  because he is a director against liability incurred in the proceeding if he conducted himself in
  good faith and he reasonably believed that his conduct was in the best interests of the corporation
  or that his conduct was at least not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in the
  case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
  Section 8.52 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act requires corporations to indemnify any
  director who was wholly successful in the defense of any proceeding to which he was a party because
  he was a director of the corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with
  the proceeding.
  Section 8.56 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act provides that a corporation may
  indemnify and advance expenses to an officer of the corporation who is a party to a proceeding
  because he is an officer of the corporation to the same extent as a director, and, if he is an
  officer but not a director, to such further extent as may be provided by the articles of
  organization, the bylaws, a resolution of the board of directors or contract, except for liability
  arising out of acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
  knowing violation of law. Section 8.56 also provides that an officer of the corporation who is not
  a director is entitled to mandatory indemnification under Section 8.52, and that the officer may
  apply to a court for indemnification or an advance for expenses, in each case to the same extent to
  which a director may be entitled to indemnification or advance under those provisions.
  Section 8.57 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act also contains provisions
  authorizing a corporation to obtain insurance on behalf of any director or officer of the
  corporation against liabilities, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify
  against such liabilities. The registrant maintains director and officer liability insurance for the
  benefit of its directors and officers.
  Article Six of our Articles of Organization, as amended and in effect, eliminates the personal
  liability of each member of our Board of Directors to National Dentex Corporation (the "Company")
  or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. However, the
  liability of a director is not eliminated (i) for any breach of such director's duty of
  3
  Table of Contents
  loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which
  involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Sections 61 or 62 of the
  predecessor Massachusetts Business Corporation Law as in effect at the time our Articles of
  Organization were last amended, or any amendatory or successor provision thereto (which includes
  Section 6.40 and 6.41 under the new Massachusetts Business Corporation Law that went into effect on
  July 1, 2004), (iv) for any transaction from which such director derived an improper personal
  benefit. This provision is intended to afford directors additional protection, and limit their
  potential liability, from suits alleging a breach of duty of care by a director. We believe that
  this provision will assist us in maintaining and securing the services of directors who are not
  employees of the Company. As a result of the inclusion of such a provision, stockholders may be
  unable to recover monetary damages against directors for actions taken by them that constitute
  fiduciary duties, although it may be possible to obtain injunctive or other equitable relief with
  respect to such actions. If equitable remedies are found not to be available to stockholders for
  any particular case, stockholders may not have any effective remedy against the challenged conduct.
  Our By-Laws also provide that directors and officers shall be indemnified against liabilities
  arising from their service as directors or officers to the fullest extent permitted by
  Massachusetts law, which generally requires that the individual act in good faith and in a manner
  he reasonably believes to be in or not opposed to the Company's best interests.

  Undertakings
  .
  a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
  (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales 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;
  (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; and
  (iii) To include any material information with respect to the distribution not
  previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such
  information in the registration statement;
  provided
  ,
  however
  , that paragraphs (i) and (ii) above do not apply
  if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
  paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
  Commission by the undersigned registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
  the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the 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
  5
  Table of Contents
  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; and
  (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.
  c) 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.
