 the Board of Directors and of the committees on which such director served. The independent directors meet in executive sessions at regularly scheduled meetings of the Board of Directors without the participation of the Chief Executive Officer or other members of management. We do not have a policy that requires the attendance of directors at the Annual Meeting.

Board Committees

Below is a description of each committee of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has determined that each director who serves on the Audit, Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance, and Regulatory and Compliance Committees is “independent,” as that term is defined for such committee by applicable listing standards of Nasdaq, rules of the SEC, and the applicable written charter for each of these committees. The charters of the Audit, Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance, and Regulatory and Compliance Committees are available on the investor section of our website under the corporate governance tab (https://investor.veracyte.com/corporate-governance). Please note, however, that the information contained on the website is not incorporated by reference in, or considered part of, this proxy statement. We will also provide copies of these documents and our company’s other corporate governance documents, free of charge, to any stockholder upon written request to Veracyte, Inc., Attention: General Counsel, 6000 Shoreline Court, Suite 300, South San Francisco, California 94080.
