determining the amount of equity compensation for 2018, the Compensation Committee determined a target value of total compensation

addition, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws obligate us to indemnify our directors and officers against expenses and
other amounts reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding arising from the fact that such person is or was an agent
of ours. Our bylaws also authorize us to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any of our directors or officers against
any liability asserted against that person in that capacity, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify that person under
the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law. We have entered and expect to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify
our directors and officers as determined by our Board. These agreements provide for indemnification of related expenses including
attorneys&rsquo; fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding.
We believe that these bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as
directors and officers. We also maintain directors&rsquo; and officers&rsquo; liability insurance.</FONT></P>

corporate governance guidelines provide that a majority of the Board and all members of our Audit, Compensation and Nominating

director or executive officer, or any member of his or her immediate family, have a direct or indirect material interest. Following
completion of these questionnaires, the Board, with the assistance of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, makes

Chairman of our Audit Committee for pre-approval prior to engaging our independent auditor for such services. These interim pre-approvals
are reviewed with the full Audit Committee at its next meeting for ratification. During 2018 and 2017, all services performed
