2020 proxy statement, in 2019, during a period of extreme uncertainty and transformation for the Company, certain members of our management team received retention bonuses. The primary purpose of the special retention program was to enhance and
protect stockholder value by ensuring the continuity and stability of our management team through the uncertain times, while also incentivizing the management team to pursue the most advantageous opportunities to maximize stockholder value. Our
executives had received substantially below-market compensation for the past several years, in part because our performance had not generally resulted in payouts of incentive compensation. As such, the board of directors was particularly concerned
that key executives would be vulnerable for poaching from our competitors and other industries. Accordingly, the retention bonuses were introduced to address this concern.</P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To ensure that the retention payments did not unjustly reward any management team member, the retention payments were subject to a full clawback by the Company
if the executive voluntarily terminated employment with the Company or was terminated for cause before the earlier of the consummation of a Successful Transaction, i.e., a change in control of the Company or a financing transaction satisfying
certain parameters, or 12 months from the date of payment in 2019.</P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:1pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Also as
previously disclosed in our 2020 proxy statement, in late 2019, our NEOs received transaction bonus opportunities tied to the consummation of a Successful Transaction. Given market volatility, the additional responsibility placed on management in
the event of a Successful Transaction was anticipated to require a commitment of substantial additional time, above and beyond each executive&#146;s <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">day-to-day</FONT></FONT>
responsibilities. The Successful Transaction bonuses were intended to motivate and incentivize the management team to pursue a Successful Transaction, thereby further aligning the interests of management with those of stockholders. Please see
&#147;Elements of Executive Compensation&#151;Change in Control and Post-Employment Benefits&#151;Successful Transaction Bonus Awards&#148; for additional detail regarding these bonus opportunities and the bonus payouts, which occurred in November
2020 in connection with the funding of $40&nbsp;million in incremental financing for the Company pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement.</P></TD></TR>

Company to attract and retain executives that have the ability and experience to manage the business, utilizing, in the aggregate, the median of a comparison group as a target for each specific executive officer position. Base salary may vary from
the median in certain cases based on the executive officer&#146;s skills and experience. For details about the Company&#146;s process for establishing the comparison group median for executive officer positions, see the section of this proxy
statement entitled &#147;Compensation Overview&#151;Elements of Executive Compensation&#151;Determination of Compensation.&#148; The objective is to reward executives with upside for superior performance through our annual and long-term incentive
programs. The compensation committee considers base salary adjustments for each NEO on an annual basis. </P>

recalibrated each year based on that year&#146;s budget, business plan, goals and other relevant considerations. Historically, our annual cash incentive program primarily utilized financial metrics that the compensation committee, with input from
our CEO, had determined were appropriately linked to stockholder value creation. However, for 2018 &#150; 2020, the compensation committee determined that basing the annual cash incentive program on the attainment of strategic restructuring metrics
was more appropriate for the Company in light of the ongoing transformative efforts. In addition, for 2020, the onset of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">COVID-19</FONT> pandemic further intensified the importance of attainment of these
restructuring metrics. Accordingly, the performance objectives underlying our annual cash incentive program for 2020 were based on achieving fixed and variable cost reduction, realignment of the manufacturing footprint around Mexico, and other
transformational goals. However, and in spite of the attainment of the majority of these goals, the compensation committee ultimately did not approve any payouts under the 2020 annual incentive program. </P>

determined that each member of the audit committee meets the independence requirements under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Global Market, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and

audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2020 and the reports of Deloitte&nbsp;&amp; Touche LLP issued in connection therewith. Deloitte&nbsp;&amp; Touche LLP is responsible for expressing an opinion on the

discussed and reviewed with Deloitte&nbsp;&amp; Touche LLP the matters required to be discussed by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard 1301 (Communications with Audit Committees), which includes, among other things, matters
related to the conduct of the audit of our financial statements. The committee has also received from Deloitte&nbsp;&amp; Touche LLP the written disclosures describing the relationships between Deloitte&nbsp;&amp; Touche LLP and us that might bear
on the independence of Deloitte&nbsp;&amp; Touche LLP consistent with and required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant&#146;s communications with the audit committee

members. Any transaction or series of transactions in which the Company or a subsidiary is a participant, the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of the Company&#146;s total assets as of the last two fiscal year ends
and a related person has a direct or indirect material interest must be reported in our filings with the SEC pursuant to its rules. </P>

our directors, Jesus Gil. The rent of the lease is approximately $897,000 annually. As required under the audit committee charter, the audit committee reviewed and approved the transaction on March&nbsp;19, 2021 and will continue to review the
transaction annually to confirm there is no conflict of interest. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="toc121234_70"></A>2022 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS </B></P>
