accounting restatement due to our material noncompliance with any
financial reporting requirement (excluding any restatement
effected to comply with subsequent changes to applicable
accounting principles), whether or not as the result of
misconduct, we will have the right to recover from any executive
officer that our Board determines was personally responsible for
the noncompliance that triggered the restatement the amount of
any cash bonus or equity incentive award that was granted, earned
or vested on the basis of having met or exceeded performance
targets, to the extent that amount would have been less if based
on the restated financial results. Under the Clawback Policy, we
may not recover compensation more than three years after it has
vested or been paid. The Clawback Policy will be administered by
our Board. The foregoing description of the Clawback Policy is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the
