• $20,000 per year additionally for service as chair of the audit committee;

Cash retainers are paid quarterly in arrears on a pro-rated basis. Our non-employee directors can elect to receive cash compensation in the form of equity awards for the upcoming calendar year. Messrs. Battier, Skorpen and Waugh and Ms. Richardson elected that payment of cash retainers for the calendar year ended December 31, 2024 be made in the form of equity awards under our 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) and therefore received restricted stock or restricted stock units in lieu of cash for their service that vested on March 20, 2025, subject to the director's continued service to the Company on such date.
