(vi) The Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.

In carrying out their responsibilities, Board members will exercise their business judgment and act in ways that they reasonably believe will serve the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

(d) Board Materials Distributed in Advance
Information and materials that are important to the Board's understanding of the agenda items and other topics to be considered at a Board meeting should, to the extent practicable and appropriate, be distributed sufficiently in advance of the meeting to permit prior review by the directors.

(e) Board Committees
From time to time the Board may form a new committee or disband a current committee depending on the circumstances. Each committee will comply with the independence and other requirements established by applicable law and regulations, within any required timeframes.

Committee appointments are subject to approval of the majority of the full Board. The Board may replace any committee chairs or members or add additional members to a Board committee at any time during the year.

Members of all standing committees are appointed by the Board. The Board determines the exact number of members and can at any time remove or replace a committee member.

3. DIRECTOR QUALIFICATIONS AND BOARD COMPOSITION
(a) Director Criteria
The Company seeks to align Board composition with the Company’s strategic direction so that Board members bring skills, experience and backgrounds that are relevant to the key strategic and operational issues that they will oversee and approve. Director candidates are typically selected based for their integrity and character, sound, independent judgment, track record of accomplishment in leadership roles, as well as their professional and corporate expertise, skills and experience. Criteria that are typically considered by the Board in the selection of directors include:
(i) the independence, judgment, strength of character, reputation in the business community, ethics and integrity of the individual;
(ii) the business or other relevant experience, skills and knowledge that the individual may have that will enable him/her to provide effective oversight of the Company’s business;
(iii) the fit of the individual’s skill set and personality with those of the other Board members so as to build a Board that works together effectively and constructively; and
(iv) the individual’s ability to devote sufficient time to carry out his or her responsibilities as a director in light of his/her occupation and the number of boards of directors of other public companies on which he or she serves.

(b) Regulatory Requirements
The Board reviews committee composition at least annually to ensure that the Company complies with the regulatory requirements. Board members must notify the Chairman of the Board, as soon as practicable, in the event that their circumstances change in a manner that may impact the committee’s view of their independence.

(c) Nominating Process
The nominating process outlined herein applies only with respect to the nomination of director candidates who will be presented to the Company’s stockholders for election at the Annual Meeting, if any. Where a third party has the right to propose for nomination one or more directors to the Company’s Board, the selection and nomination of such directors need not be subject to this process.

(i) The Board is responsible for screening and recommending nominees for election as directors of the Company, including nominees recommended by stockholders of the Company. When formulating Board membership recommendations, Board members will consider advice and recommendations from shareholders, management, and others as they deem appropriate, and will also take into account the performance of incumbent directors in determining whether to recommend them to stand for reelection at the annual meeting of stockholders.
(ii) After the completion of interviews (including, as appropriate, with other Board members, the CEO and other members of senior management) and reference checks of identified candidates, the Board will meet in person or by conference call to discuss and make recommendations with respect to the candidates. The full Board will then vote on their recommendations. Those candidates approved by a majority of the Board shall be nominated for election by the Company’s stockholders at the next Annual Meeting.

The Chairman or CEO of the Company will contact any candidate(s) so approved, invite them to attend the Company’s Annual Meeting and to join the Board at its first meeting thereafter, if they are elected by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting. In the case of a Board candidate appointed between Annual Meetings, the same nominating process will generally apply except that the approved candidate will be invited to join the Board at its next meeting after his/her approval by the Board and will stand for election by stockholders at the first Annual Meeting thereafter.

(d) Director Terms
Directors will be elected every five years and shall serve for a term of five years, except, following inception of the Company’s classified board of directors, as otherwise provided in the Company’s certificate of incorporation. Directors will be subject to re-nomination on the recommendation of the Board and approval by the majority of the Board. Directors who are appointed by third parties having the right to appoint one or more Board members shall be subject to the terms of appointment established by such third party pursuant to its legal rights with the Company.

(e) Change of Position
The Board does not believe that directors who retire or change the position they held when they became a member of the Board should necessarily leave the Board. Promptly following such event, the director must notify the Board, which shall review the continued appropriateness of the affected director remaining on the Board under the circumstances. The affected director is expected to act in accordance with the Board's recommendation following such review.

(f) Limitations on Board Service
The Board does not believe that its members should generally be prohibited from serving on boards and/or committees of other organizations, and the Board has not adopted any guidelines limiting such activities. However, prior to becoming a director of another company, a director shall notify the Chairman of the Board and CEO to address whether the aggregate number of directorships held by such director would interfere with his or her ability to carry out his or her responsibilities as a director of the Company. (Additionally, the Board will be informed if there is concern that any directorship with another company might create a conflict of interest.) In the event that the Board determines that the additional directorship constitutes a conflict of interest or interferes with such director's ability to carry out his or her responsibilities as a director of the Company, such director, upon the request of the Board, shall either offer his or her resignation or not accept the other directorship.

(b) Access to Independent Advisors
In their sole discretion, the Board shall have the sole authority and responsibility to select, employ, retain and terminate any financial, legal, executive search, consulting and other professional advisors as they deem necessary or appropriate to assist in the discharge of their responsibilities.

The Compensation Committee leads the annual review of CEO performance, in which all Board members provide input, and oversees the CEO’s performance review of senior executives for purposes of compensation decisions, succession planning and leadership development. The CEO shall also provide the Board with an assessment of potential successors to key executive positions within the Company.
