Stockholder Engagement Informs Our Strong Governance Profile We maintain a year-round stockholder engagement program; in 2014, we engaged with stockholders owning ~20% of our outstanding shares Best practices in corporate governance Annually elected directors Majority voting in director elections All directors are independent (except Chairman/CEO) Strong Lead Independent Director role  Majority vote standard to amend charter/bylaws and approve mergers Mandatory director retirement policy Annual Board and Committee performance evaluation Robust succession planning practices, including a review of future leaders by the Compensation Committee and/or Board at least annually Stockholder engagement is an important element of the Board’s review of our governance program and stockholder feedback has meaningfully influenced the evolution of our governance practices

Our Strong Compensation Governance Practices What We Do Pay for performance – 85% of our CEO’s, and an average of 73% of our other NEOs’, 2014 compensation was performance based Use long-term incentive awards that are fully performance based Emphasize long-term performance – 66% of our CEO’s target total direct compensation is equity- based and tied to creating stockholder value Maintain rigorous stock ownership requirements (5x salary for CEO; 3-4x salary for other NEOs) Manage share usage conservatively – We reduced our burn rate by over XX% since fiscal year end Year Have double-trigger change of control vesting provisions Maintain clawback policy Have strong anti-hedging and pledging policies Use an independent compensation consultant Regularly assess potential risks relating to our compensation policies and practices   What We Don’t Do Have employment agreements with our NEOs Provide gross-ups on change of control severance benefits or tax liabilities associated with perquisites  Grant stock options with an exercise price less than the fair market value on the date of grant  Re-price or exchange stock options without stockholder approval
