You will serve as a Director of the Board from the Effective Date until you voluntarily resign, are removed from the Board or are not reelected (the “Term”). Your rights, duties and obligations as a Director shall be governed by the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of the Company, each as amended from time to time (collectively, the “Governing Documents”), except that where the Governing Documents conflict with this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.

1.2 Mandatory Board Meeting Attendance. As a Director, you agree to apply all reasonable efforts to attend each regular meeting of the Board and no fewer than seventy-five percent (75%) of these meetings of the Board in person, and no more than twenty-five percent (25%) of such meetings by telephone or teleconference.

The Company’s obligation to pay the Retainer will cease upon the termination of the Term. You agree to attend at least 3 out of the 4 regularly scheduled Board meetings for the Retainer. In addition to the Retainer, in the event you are a member of and serve on the Audit Committee and/or the Compensation Committee and/or other committee that a fee is payable, the Company will pay you Seven Hundred and Fifty Dollars ($750), payable subject to your attendance (the “Committee Retainer”), for each regularly scheduled Audit Committee and/or Compensation committee and/or other committee meeting that a fee is payable in each calendar quarter.

participation as a Director, and an additional five thousand (5,000) options for each year of participation as a member of the Compensation and/or Audit committee of the Board, per committee membership.
