Mr. Staudohar holds a B.A. from the University of Minnesota. Among other professional experiences, qualifications and skills, Mr. Staudohar’s knowledge and understanding of the capital markets and his in-depth experience in corporate finance and business management will provide valuable assistance to the Company in oversight of financial management, internal controls, and strategic planning.
 
Neither the Registrant nor any of its subsidiaries has entered into any transactions with Mr. Staudohar described in Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.  Mr. Staudohar was not appointed pursuant to any arrangement or understanding between Mr. Staudohar and any other person.
 
In connection with Mr. Staudohar’s appointment to the Board, the Registrant did not enter into or materially amend any plan, contract, or arrangement that Mr. Staudohar will participate in as a director of the Registrant.  Mr. Staudohar will be compensated for his service on the Board in the same manner as other non-employee members of the Board, which presently consists solely of grants of stock options and payment of $1,000 per in person Board meeting attended, and $500 per phone meeting.
