Audit Committee’s Preapproval Policies and Procedures

Consistent with policies of the SEC regarding auditor independence and the Audit Committee charter, the Audit Committee has the responsibility for appointing, setting compensation, and overseeing the work of the independent public accounting firm (the “Firm”). The Audit Committee’s policy is to preapprove all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the Firm. Preapproval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specific budget. The Audit Committee may also preapprove particular services on a case-by-case basis. In assessing a request for services by the Firm, the Audit Committee considers whether such services are consistent with the Firm’s independence, whether the Firm is likely to provide the most effective and efficient service based upon its familiarity with the Company, and whether the service could enhance the Company’s ability to manage or control
