Following the resignation of Mr. Thordarson, the Board appointed Bradley J. Dixon as a member of the Board to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Thordarson’s resignation, effective as of April 23, 2021.

This policy provides for annual compensation of $12,000 and reimbursement of reasonable expenses incurred by directors in the course of their performance.

 

In connection with Mr. Dixon’s appointment to the Board, the Company and Mr. Dixon will enter an indemnification agreement in the form previously adopted by the Board for entry into with the Company’s directors and executive officers, which generally provides for the indemnification of such persons for all reasonable expenses and liabilities, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, penalties, fines and settlement amounts, incurred in connection with any action or proceeding brought against them by reason of the fact that they are or were serving in such capacity, to the extent indemnifiable under the law.
