 the Compensation Committee’s process for determining executive compensation comprises two related elements: the determination of compensation levels and the establishment of performance objectives for the current year. For executives other than our Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee solicits and considers evaluations and recommendations submitted to the Compensation Committee by our Chief Executive Officer. The evaluation of our Chief Executive Officer’s performance is conducted by the Compensation Committee, which determines any adjustments to our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation as well as awards to be granted. For all executives and directors, as part of its deliberations, the Compensation Committee may review and consider, as appropriate, materials such as financial reports and projections, operational data, executive and director stock ownership information, company stock performance data, analyses of historical executive compensation levels and current company-wide compensation levels and recommendations of the Compensation Committee’s compensation consultant, including analyses of executive and director compensation paid at other companies identified by the consultant. 15 TABLE OF CONTENTS Nominating and Governance Committee As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Nominating and Governance Committee consists of Neil Graham, Arnout Ploos van Amstel and Jennifer Jarrett, with Neil Graham serving as chair of the committee. The Board has determined that each of Neil Graham, Arnout Ploos van Amstel and Jennifer Jarrett is independent under the Nasdaq listing standards. Specific responsibilities of the Nominating and Governance Committee include: • identifying and evaluating candidates, including the nomination of incumbent directors for reelection and nominees recommended by shareholders, to serve on the Board; • considering and making recommendations to the Board regarding the composition and chairmanship of the committees of the Board; • developing and making recommendations to the Board regarding corporate governance guidelines and matters; and • overseeing periodic evaluations of the performance of the Boards, including its individual directors and committees.
