On June 15, 2015, John H. Foss and Janet L. Gurwitch advised our Nominating and Governance Committee that they do not intend to stand for re-election to the Company’s Board of Directors at the Company’s annual shareholders meeting. Mr. Foss and Ms. Gurwitch both indicated that their decision resulted from demands of other on-going business and personal activities and is not due to any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.  Mr. Foss, who serves on the audit committee, and Ms. Gurwitch, who serves on the compensation and nominating and governance committees, intend to finish their current terms.  The Board of Directors has reduced the board’s size to nine seats effective immediately upon the expiration of the terms of these two directors at the annual meeting.
