Board of Directors and Audit Committee since November 2004, informed the Company that he will step
down from the Board of Directors on March 31, 2010. Mr. Worenklein’s resignation comes as a result
of his joining the law firm of Bingham McCutchen LLP as a partner, and that Firm’s policy
preventing its partners from serving as directors of public companies. There were no disagreements
between the Company and Mr.Worenklein on any matter.
The Company has begun the search for a new director.
