These fees are not paid to the Chairman of the Board of Directors. In-person Board and committee meetings that continue from one day to the next are paid as a single meeting. Informal conference calls, such as for financial or other informational updates, are not considered Board meetings and are not minuted. Non employee directors (other than the Chairman) who are able to participate in the calls are paid a fee that is equal to a telephonic meeting fee. Time spent by non-employee directors at the Company's investor conferences or attending continuing education events are not separately compensated, but the expenses of attending are reimbursed.
