The Company uses a combination of cash and share based compensation to attract and retain qualified candidates to serve on the Board. In setting compensation for the Company’s independent directors of the Board, the Compensation Committee considers, among other things, the substantial time commitment on the part of the directors in fulfilling their duties as well as the skill level it requires of directors. In addition, all directors of the Board are reimbursed by the Company for their expenses related to attending meetings of the Board and its committees.

The cash component of each independent director’s compensation is set forth according to the following schedule:

| Annual board retainer                 |     | $    55,000 |
| Annual audit committee chair retainer |     | $    20,000 |

The annual board retainer and the annual audit committee chair retainer are payable quarterly in advance. No separate retainer is paid for an independent director’s serving as chair of the Compensation Committee or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
