you will not be entitled to receive, any compensation for your services as a member of the Board or any committee of the Board during the Waiver Period, whether in cash, equity or property and whether under the Company’s non-employee director
compensation program or otherwise. You may revoke the foregoing waiver at any time by delivering written notice of revocation to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, provided that any such revocation shall not be effective against, and you
shall not be entitled upon such revocation to receive, compensation for services performed as a member of the Board or any committee of the Board prior to the date such revocation is delivered. 

To acknowledge your agreement with and understanding of the foregoing, please countersign and return a copy of this letter agreement to me at
