Upon
termination of employment, all executive officers with a written employment agreement are entitled to receive severance payments under
their employment agreements. In determining whether to approve, and as part of the process of setting the terms of, such severance arrangements,

Further, the Committee recognizes that many of the named executives and officers have participated in the Company since its founding
and that this participation has not resulted in a return on their investments. Termination and Change in Control Payments considered
both the risk and the dedication of these executives’ service to the Company.

Our
Chief Executive Officer has an employment agreement that provides, if his employment is terminated without cause or if the executive
