members of the audit committee are: Michael J. Mueller, Robert C. Hagerty and David B. Sutcliffe.

AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL
EXPERT

independent, as that term is defined by NASDAQs corporate governance standards applicable to the Registrant. The Commission has indicated that the designation of Michael J. Mueller as an audit committee financial expert does not make him an
expert for any purpose, impose any duties, obligations or liabilities on him that are greater than those imposed on members of the audit committee and the board of directors who do not carry this designation or affect the duties,
obligations or liabilities of any other member of the audit committee or the board of directors.
