DIRECTOR REFRESHMENT, RECRUITMENT, NOMINATION AND QUALIFICATIONS

Board Refreshment, Director Tenure and Retirement Policy

The Board is committed to effective and ongoing refreshment that is reflective of the evolution of the Company’s strategy and provides a balanced mix of skills, backgrounds and tenure.

The Company does not set specific term limits on director service and believes that a mix of director tenures on the Board can strengthen Board effectiveness and dynamics. Longer tenured directors possess experience and organizational knowledge while newer directors bring fresh insight and perspective. Our current Board reflects this perspective, and the Board is committed to ongoing Board refreshment. As part of the objective of continuously engaging in Board refreshment, no person may serve as a director of the Company if they would be 75 or older on the date of election or re-election.

Additional Board and Audit Committee Service and Director Commitments

While the Board acknowledges the value of having directors with significant leadership experience in other businesses and organizations, directors are expected to ensure that their other commitments do not interfere with their duties and responsibilities as directors of the Company. As such, absent special or interim circumstances, no independent director may serve on more than four public company boards (including the Company’s Board) and no director who is a sitting chief executive officer, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, may serve on more than two public company boards (including the Company’s Board). Further, no Audit Committee member may simultaneously serve on the audit committees of more than three public companies (including the Company’s Audit Committee).

In addition, in considering each director’s ability to discharge their duties, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews a director’s commitments to other boards, including committee memberships and leadership positions, as well as service with private company boards and non-profit organizations, in light of such director’s other professional responsibilities.

#### Director Recruitment and Nomination
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee establishes criteria for the selection and nomination of directors to serve on the Board and identifies and recommends individuals to serve on the Board. In connection with director recruitment, the Committee has authority to retain and to terminate any search firm to be used to assist it in identifying candidates to serve as directors of the Company.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews and makes recommendations regarding the composition and
