Committee of the Board in connection with an increase in Board size.
Ms. Ricciardello's term as director will expire at the 2023 annual meeting of

would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. There are no
understandings or arrangements between Ms. Ricciardello and any other person
pursuant to which Ms. Ricciardello was selected to serve as a director of the
Board.
Ms. Ricciardello will receive the standard non-employee director compensation
for her service on the Board as provided in the Company's Amended and Restated
Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to
this Current Report on Form 8-K.
In connection with Ms. Ricciardello's appointment to the Board, the Company
entered into an Indemnification Agreement with Ms. Ricciardello (the
"Indemnification Agreement") pursuant to which the Company will be required to
indemnify Ms. Ricciardello to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law
against liability that may arise by reason of her service to the Company and to
advance her expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against her to which
she could be indemnified.
The foregoing description is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by
