, in which we are or will be a
participant and in which a related party has or will have a direct or indirect material interest and the aggregate amount involved exceeds $120,000. If a related party proposes to enter into such a transaction, arrangement, or relationship, which we
refer to as a related-party transaction, such related party must report the proposed related-party transaction to our audit committee. The policy calls for the proposed related-party transaction to be reviewed and, if deemed appropriate, approved by
the audit committee. In approving or rejecting such proposed transactions, the audit committee will be required to consider relevant facts and circumstances. The audit committee will approve only those transactions that, in light of known
circumstances, are deemed to be in our best interests. In the event that any member of the audit committee is not a disinterested person with respect to the related-party transaction under review, that member will be excluded from the review and
approval or rejection of such related-party transaction. If we become aware of an existing related-party transaction which has not been approved under the policy, the matter will be referred to the audit committee. The audit committee will evaluate
all options available, including ratification, revision, or termination of such transaction. In the event that management determines that it is impractical or undesirable to wait until a meeting of the audit committee to consummate a related-party
transaction, the chair of the audit committee may approve such transaction in accordance with the related-party transaction policy. Any such approval must be reported to the audit committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.
