 economic impact on us. Management keeps the directors informed of Company activity through regular communication, including written reports and presentations at Board and committee meetings.

Our corporate governance practices do not indicate a particular board structure, and our Board has the flexibility to select its chair and our chief executive officer in the manner that it believes is in the best interests of our shareholders. Accordingly, the positions of Chair and the Chief Executive Officer may be filled by either one individual or two individuals. At present, the Chair and the Chief Executive Officer roles are served by one person. Our Board believes that our current leadership structure and the composition of our Board protect shareholder interests and provide adequate independent oversight, while also providing outstanding leadership and direction for our Board and management.

Aside from our Co Chief Executive Officers and our Chief Financial Officer, each of our other directors is “independent” under Nasdaq standards, as more fully described herein. The independent directors meet in executive sessions, without management present, during each regularly scheduled Board meeting and are very active in the oversight of our Company. In addition, our Board and each committee of Board has complete and open access to any member of management and the authority to retain independent legal, financial and other advisors as they deem appropriate.

Effective risk oversight is an important priority of the Board. Because risks are considered in virtually every business decision, the Board discusses risk throughout the year generally or in connection with specific proposed actions. The Board’s approach to risk oversight includes understanding the critical risks in our business and strategy, evaluating our risk management processes, allocating responsibilities for risk oversight among the full Board, and fostering an appropriate culture of integrity and compliance with legal responsibilities.

Our Board has an active role, as a whole and at committee levels, in overseeing management of our risks. Our Board oversees management of risks associated with operations and cybersecurity. The Board of Directors and management are actively involved in reviewing our information security and cybersecurity strategies and updating these strategies as risks evolve. While each standing Board committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to its area of oversight, the entire Board is regularly informed about these risks through committee meeting attendance or committee reports.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has oversight of our cybersecurity program and is responsible for reviewing and assessing the Company’s cybersecurity and data protection policies, procedures and resource commitment, including key risk areas and mitigation strategies. As part of this process, the Audit Committee receives regular updates from the Chief Technology Officer on critical issues related to our information security risks, cybersecurity strategy, supplier risk and business continuity capabilities.
