#### Cybersecurity Oversight
The Company’s cybersecurity risk management process is assessed and managed by a cyber risk committee (“Cyber Risk Committee”), which includes the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Chief Information Officer and members of management within the information technology, finance and accounting, legal and internal audit functions. The Board has delegated to the Audit Committee, as reflected in the charter of the Audit Committee, responsibility for periodic review and oversight of the Company’s cybersecurity and other information technology risks, controls and procedures, including the Company’s plans to mitigate cybersecurity risks, to respond to data breaches and to disclose material cybersecurity incidents. The Audit Committee receives periodic updates from the Cyber Risk Committee regarding these topics. Both senior management, including members of the Cyber Risk Committee, and the Audit Committee Chairperson report periodically on cybersecurity risk management to the full Board of Directors. Additionally, management conducts comprehensive risk surveys annually and presents the results of these surveys to the Board of Directors for discussion.
