There are no current or proposed transactions in which either Mr. Satterlee or Mr. Ancius has an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC.

Mr. Satterlee and Mr. Ancius will each receive an annual retainer of $10,000 for their services as a director, as well as $4,000 (plus reimbursement of reasonable expenses) for attending each board and committee meeting, all in accordance with the Company’s director compensation policy.
