 Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing with the Board of Directors, on an annual basis, the appropriate characteristics, skills and experience required for the Board of Directors as a whole and its individual members. In evaluating the suitability of individual candidates (both new candidates and current members), the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, in recommending candidates for election, and the Board of Directors in approving (and, in the case of vacancies, appointing) such candidates, take into account many factors, including the following:

| ● | personal and professional integrity, ethics and values; |

| ● | experience in corporate management, such as serving as an officer or former officer of a publicly held company; |

| ● | finance experience; |

| ● | relevant social policy concerns; |

| ● | experience relevant to our industry; |

| ● | experience as a board member or executive officer of another publicly held company; |

| ● | relevant academic expertise or other proficiency in an area of our operations; |

| ● | diversity of expertise and experience in substantive matters pertaining to our business relative to other board members; |

| ● | diversity of background and perspective, including, but not limited to, with respect to age, gender, race, place of residence and specialized experience; |

| ● | practical and mature business judgment, including, but not limited to, the ability to make independent analytical inquiries; and |

| ● | any other relevant qualifications, attributes or skills. |

The Board of Directors evaluates each individual, whether an incumbent director or a director candidate, based on their qualifications, judgment, attributes, background, experiences, perspectives and skills in the context of the Board as a whole, with the objective of recommending a group that can best perpetuate the success of our Company’s business and represent shareholder interests through the exercise of sound judgment, using its diversity of experience.

We believe that a board of directors made up of highly qualified individuals from diverse backgrounds promotes better corporate governance, performance and effective decision-making. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee makes efforts to ensure that directors and officers have a wide range of skills, experiences and backgrounds to meet our needs. To support this objective, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will, when seeking candidates for Board of Directors or executive positions, among other things, (a) consider candidates who are highly qualified based on their experience, functional expertise and personal skills and qualities; and (b) consider diversity criteria including gender and geographical background of the candidate.
