Employment Agreements

For a discussion of the
employment agreements with our executive officers, see Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related TransactionsAgreements with Executive Officers of the Company contained herein.

Directors Compensation and Stock Option Grants

The Company does not pay cash compensation to non-employee Directors for their service on the Board of Directors. Employee Directors do not receive any compensation for their service on the Board of Directors. From time to time,
non-employee Directors have received grants of options to purchase the Companys common stock in consideration of their service on the Board of Directors. In 2004, John C. Mihm, Donald A. Juckett, Randall D. Keys and Thomas E. Williams each
received an option grant to purchase 400,000 shares of the Companys common stock, which were granted upon their election as Directors. The options vest over three years, have a five-year term and have an exercise price of $2.00 per share.

Additionally, the Company reimburses its Directors for reasonable expenses incurred to attend the meetings of the Board of Directors or
the Board committees.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

John C. Mihm and Thomas E. Williams serve on the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The Companys independent Directors are, and the
Company expects they will continue to be, the only members of the Compensation Committee. None of the Companys Directors or executive officers has a relationship with us or any other company that the Securities and Exchange Commission defines
as a compensation committee interlock or insider participation that should be disclosed to stockholders.

The Audit Committee pre-approved all of the audit

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

In accordance with the Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee has established policies and procedures by which it approves in advance any audit and
permissible non-audit services to be provided by the Companys independent registered public accounting firm. Under these procedures, prior to the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm for pre-approved services,
requests or applications for the independent registered public accounting firm to provide services must be submitted to the Companys chief financial officer or his designee and the Audit Committee and must include a detailed description of the
services to be rendered. The chief financial officer or his designee and the independent registered public accounting firm must ensure that the independent registered public accounting firm is not engaged to perform the proposed services unless
those services are within the list of services that have received the Audit Committees pre-approval and must cause the Audit Committee to be informed in a timely manner of all services rendered by the independent registered public accounting
firm and the related fees.

Requests or applications for the independent registered public accounting firm to provide services that require
case-by-case approval will be submitted to the Audit Committee (or any Audit Committee members who have been delegated pre-approval authority) by the chief financial officer or his designee. Each request or application must include:



| |  |  | a recommendation by the chief financial officer (or designee) as to whether the Audit Committee should approve the request or application; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Audit Committee will not permit the independent registered public accounting firm to provide services in connection with a transaction initially recommended by them, the purpose of which may be tax avoidance and
the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The Audit Committee also will not permit the independent registered public accounting firm to provide any services to the extent that the
Securities and Exchange Commission has prohibited the provision of those services by the independent registered public accounting firm, which generally include:



| |  |  | bookkeeping or other services related to accounting records or financial statements;
