Director Nomination Process

Our board of directors is
responsible for filling vacancies on our board of directors and for nominating candidates for election by our stockholders each year
in the class of directors whose term expires at the relevant annual meeting. The board of directors delegates the selection and nomination
process to the nominating and corporate governance committee, with the expectation that other members of the board of directors, and
of management, will be requested to take part in the process as appropriate.

The nominating and corporate
governance committee considers candidates for board of director membership suggested by its members and our Chief Executive Officer.
Additionally, in selecting nominees for directors, the nominating and corporate governance committee will review candidates recommended
by stockholders in the same manner and using the same general criteria as candidates recruited by the committee and/or recommended by
our board of directors. The nominating and corporate governance committee may gather information about the candidates through interviews,
detailed questionnaires, comprehensive background checks or any other means that the nominating and corporate governance committee deems
to be appropriate in the evaluation process.

Our nominating and corporate
governance committee and our board of directors consider a broad range of factors relating to the qualifications of nominees. Our nominating
and corporate governance committee’s and our board of directors’ priority in selecting board members is the identification
of persons who will provide a composite mix of backgrounds, experience, knowledge and capabilities that will allow our board of directors
to promote our strategic objectives and fulfill its responsibilities to our stockholders. Our nominating and corporate governance committee
and our board of directors highly value diversity and, as such, also consider diversity of gender, race, ethnicity, age, gender identity,
gender expression and sexual
