During his tenure in the Senate, Mr. Torricelli was a member of the Senate Finance, Governmental Affairs, Foreign Relations, Judiciary and Rules Committees and also served as Chair of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. Upon retiring from the Senate, Mr. Torricelli established a national and international business strategy firm, Rosemont Associates LLC, and created a real estate development business, Woodrose Properties LLC.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Torricelli and any other person to which Mr. Torricelli was selected as a director of the Company. There are no transactions requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K in which Mr. Torricelli has an interest.

Mr. Torricelli will be compensated in accordance with the Company’s standard cash and equity compensation arrangements for non-employee directors, which are described in greater detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A relating to our 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 9, 2016.
