 period. Accordingly, Section 203 could have an anti-takeover effect with respect to certain transactions our board of directors does not approve in advance or certain transactions with “interested stockholders” who have not been approved by the board of directors prior to becoming and interested stockholder. The provisions of Section 203 may encourage companies interested in acquiring us to negotiate in advance with our board of directors to avoid the restrictions on business combinations that would apply if the stockholder became an interested stockholder. However, Section 203 also could discourage attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of Common Stock held by stockholders. These provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our board of directors and may make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests. Election of Directors Directors are elected at an annual meeting of our stockholders. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock with respect to any director elected by holders of Preferred Stock, in an uncontested election, directors will be elected by a majority of the votes cast by the holders of our outstanding shares of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors at such annual meeting. In a contested election, directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of our outstanding shares of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election 23

of directors at such annual meeting. However, if a director is not re-elected by a majority of the votes cast, such director shall offer to tender his or
her resignation to our board of directors and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the board of directors will make a recommendation to the board of directors on whether to accept or reject the resignation, or whether other action
should be taken. In this case, the board of directors (excluding the director tendering his or her resignation) will act on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s recommendation and publicly disclose its decision and the rationale
behind it within ninety (90) days from the date of the certification of the election results. The time, date and place of the annual meeting will be fixed by the board of directors.

Removal of Directors

Any director or the
whole board of directors (other than a director elected by holders of Preferred Stock) may be removed, with or without cause, at any time, by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares
