PROPOSAL 3 — ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION</div>

Consistent with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and as required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are providing our stockholders with the opportunity to vote to express their views with respect to the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement, which has been prepared in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. The vote is on an advisory basis and is non-binding, which means that the vote is not binding on the Company, our Board or the Compensation Committee of our Board.

While the vote on this proposal is advisory and non-binding, the Compensation Committee, which is responsible for designing and administering our executive compensation program, highly values the opinions of our stockholders. As such, we will consider the vote of our stockholders when making future compensation decisions. Accordingly, we ask our stockholders to vote on the following resolution at the Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables, and narrative discussion, is hereby APPROVED.”
