All members of the Board are expected to have sufficient time to carry out their duties, and to provide insight and practical wisdom based on their past experience. A director’s service on other boards of public companies should be limited to a number that allows them, given individual circumstances, to perform their director duties responsibly. Each director must represent the interests of Aemetis stockholders.

The Governance, Compensation and Nominating Committee uses a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating nominees for directors. The GCN Committee regularly assesses the appropriate size of the Board and whether any vacancies on the Board are expected due to retirement or otherwise. In the event that vacancies are anticipated or otherwise arise, the GCN Committee considers various potential candidates for director. Candidates may come to the attention of the GCN Committee through current members of the Board, professional search firms, stockholders, or other persons. These candidates are evaluated at regular or special meetings of the GCN Committee, and may be considered at any point during the year. The GCN Committee considers properly submitted stockholder recommendations for candidates for the Board. In evaluating such recommendations, the GCN Committee uses the qualifications standards discussed above and seeks to achieve a balance of knowledge, experience, and capability on the Board.
