VERNANCE Director Attendance at Board, Committee, and Other Meetings During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Board of Directors held eight meetings, the Audit and Enterprise Risk Committee met six times, the Human Resource and Compensation Committee met five times, and the Governance and Nominating Committee met two times. Each director attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board and of each committee on which such director served (in each case, during the periods that such director served). Additionally, our independent directors meet at regularly scheduled executive sessions without management participation. As set forth in our Corporate Governance Principles, all directors are expected to attend the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders. All of our then-current directors attended the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders. Director Independence and Board Committees Director Independence Our Board of Directors has determined that each of our directors, except John Fieldly, is independent within the meaning of the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of Nasdaq. Our Board of Directors consults with advisors to ensure that the Board’s determinations are consistent with relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of “independent,” including those set forth in pertinent listing standards of Nasdaq, as in effect from time to time. In making the independence determinations, the Board considered a number of factors and relationships, including without limitation all relevant identified transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or her family members, and the Company, its senior management and its independent auditors. Each of our directors serving on our Audit and Enterprise Risk Committee and Human Resource and Compensation Committee satisfies the applicable heightened independence standards requires by SEC and Nasdaq rules for service on such committees. Board Committees Our Board of Directors has established three standing committees: the Audit and Enterprise Risk Committee; the Human Resource and Compensation Committee; and the Governance and Nominating Committee. The table below sets forth the members of each of these committees:
