 background, experience, expertise, perspective, and personal attributes. The committee also considers the overall composition of the Board and its committees, compliance with the NYSE American listing standards and the contributions that a candidate can be expected to make to the collective functioning of the Board based upon the totality of the candidate’s credentials, experience and expertise, the composition of the Board at the time and other relevant circumstances.

We are of the view that the continuing service of qualified incumbent directors promotes stability and continuity in the function of the Board of Directors, contributing to the Board’s ability to work as a collective body, while giving us the benefit of the familiarity and insight into our affairs that our directors have accumulated during their tenure.

The Nominating and Governance Committee has adopted procedures consistent with the practice of re-nominating incumbent directors who continue to satisfy the committee’s criteria for membership on the Board, who the committee believes continue to make important contributions to the Board and who consent to continue their service on the Board. These procedures are set forth in the committee’s “Procedures for Identifying and Evaluating Director Candidates” policy. When evaluating the qualifications and performance of the incumbent directors that desire to continue their service on our Board, the committee will (i) consider whether the director continues to satisfy the minimum qualifications for director candidates adopted by the committee, (ii) review the assessments of the performance of the director during the preceding term made by the committee, and (iii) determine whether there exist any special, countervailing considerations against re-nomination of the director. When there is no qualified and available incumbent, the committee will also solicit recommendations for nominees from persons that the committee believes are likely to be familiar with qualified candidates. These persons may include members of our Board of Directors and management of the Company. The committee may also determine to engage a professional search firm to assist in identifying candidates. As to each recommended candidate that the committee believes merits consideration, the committee will consider, among other things, whether the candidate possesses any of the specific qualities or skills that, under the committee’s policies, must be possessed by one or more members of the Board and the contribution that the candidate can be expected to make to the overall functioning of the Board.

The Nominating and Governance Committee has adopted a policy with regard to the consideration of director candidates submitted by stockholders. This policy is set forth in the committee’s “Policy Regarding Director Candidate Recommendations Submitted by Stockholders.” The committee will only consider director candidates submitted by stockholders who satisfy the minimum qualifications prescribed by the committee for director candidates
