In exercising its discretion, the Compensation Committee will consider the recommendations of management and the purposes of the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (which include providing incentive for future endeavors, advancing the interests of the Company and its shareholders by encouraging ownership of the common stock, and enabling the Company to compete effectively with other enterprises for the services of qualified individuals as may be needed for the continued improvement of the Company&#8217;s business).

The Board determines the terms and conditions of other stock-based awards, consistent with the terms of the 2017 Director Plan, at the date of grant or thereafter. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">The Company had not issued performance-based awards to directors and does not expect to issue performance-based awards to directors under the 2017 Director Plan.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:8px;text-align:center;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">* * * * * *</font></div><div><br></div>	</body>
