In connection with his service as a director, Mr. Millard will receive the Company’s standard non-employee director cash and equity compensation.

In connection with his appointment, Mr. Millard entered into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement for its directors, which requires the Company to, among other things, indemnify its directors against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service. The agreement also requires the Company to advance all expenses incurred by directors in investigating or defending any action, suit or proceeding. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the form of indemnification agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 10.01 to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-165081) filed on June 29, 2010 and is incorporated by reference herein.
There are no arrangements or understandings pursuant to which Mr. Millard was appointed as a member of the Board and Mr. Millard does not have any transactions reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
