ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our board currently consists of four directors. Three of the current members of the board have been nominated for re-election. The nominees for election at the meeting shall, if elected, serve on the board for a term of one year until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their respective successors have been duly elected and have qualified. The board elects our officers annually following the Annual Meeting of stockholders. Officers serve for terms of one year and until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

The directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the meeting. A “plurality” means that the individuals who receive the largest number of votes cast are elected as directors up to the maximum number of directors to be elected at the meeting. Consequently, any shares not voted (whether by abstention, broker non-vote or otherwise) will have no impact on the election of directors. The proxy holders named as proxies in the accompanying proxy intend to vote FOR the election of the nominees identified below. If any nominee is unable or fails to accept nomination or election (which is not anticipated), the proxy holders named in the proxy, unless specifically instructed otherwise in the proxy, will vote for the election of such other person as our existing board of directors may recommend.

The table below sets forth certain information about the nominees, including the nominee’s age, position with our Company and length of time served as a member of the board. Three of the nominees are currently serving as directors.
