Director nominations process

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying and recommending candidates to serve on the Board and its committees. To identify suitable director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may solicit current directors and executives of the Company for the names of potentially qualified candidates or ask directors and executives to pursue their own business contacts for the names of potentially qualified candidates, or consider director candidates recommended by our stockholders. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has the authority to consult with outside advisors or retain search firms to assist in the search for qualified candidates.

In considering whether to recommend any particular candidate to serve on the Board or its committees or for inclusion in the Board’s slate of recommended director nominees for election at the annual meeting of stockholders, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the criteria set forth in the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter and our Corporate Governance Guidelines, including consideration of any potential conflicts of interest as well as applicable independence, experience, and other requirements. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee gives the same consideration to candidates recommended by stockholders as those candidates recommended by search firms, members of our Board, and management
