The Company agrees:

 

(a)                                 As promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement (but in no event later than the date of the 2012 Annual Meeting), the Company and the Board, at a duly convened meeting of directors, shall take all actions necessary to increase the size of the Board from seven (7) to eight (8) directors.  The new Board seat will be added to the 2015 Class.

 

(b)                                 To include the two Clinton Suggested Nominees or their Replacement (as defined herein) in the Board of Directors’ slate of nominees for election as directors of the Company at the 2012 Annual Meeting, with such directors, if elected, to become members of the 2015 Class.
