 intend to recommend the nomination of a sitting
director for re- election. Although it has not done so in the past, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may retain
search firms to assist in identifying suitable director candidates.

The Board
does not have a formal policy on Board candidate qualifications. The Board may consider those factors it deems appropriate in evaluating
director nominees made either by the Board or stockholders, including judgment, skill, strength of character, experience with businesses
and organizations comparable in size or scope to the Company, experience and skill relative to other Board members, and specialized knowledge
or experience. Depending upon the current needs of the Board, certain factors may be weighed more or less heavily. In considering candidates
for the Board, the directors evaluate the entirety of each candidate’s credentials and do not have any specific minimum qualifications
that must be met. “Diversity,” as such, is not a criterion that the Committee considers.The directors will consider
candidates from any reasonable source, including current Board members, stockholders, professional search firms or other persons. The
directors will not evaluate candidates differently based on who has made the recommendation.
