| RISK MANAGEMENT OVERSIGHT |

The Board takes an active and informed role in the Company’s risk management policies and strategies. At least annually, the Company’s executive officers, who are responsible for the Company’s day-to-day risk management, present to the Audit Committee and the Board a comprehensive report on the material risks to the Company, including credit risks, liquidity risks, financial risks and operational risks (which includes cybersecurity risks). At that time, the management team also discusses the Company’s risk mitigation strategies and plans specific to each identified risk. If necessary, the Audit Committee or the Board may delegate specific risk management tasks to management or a committee of the Board. Throughout the year, management monitors the Company’s risks and updates the Audit Committee and the Board as new material risks are identified or risks previously presented by the Board materially change.

The Audit Committee also actively monitors risks to the Company throughout the year, particularly with respect to those that could affect financial reporting, and, with the aid of management, identifies any additional risks that need to be elevated for the consideration of the full Board.
