Ms. Malmivirta and Mr. Edwards will participate in the Company’s compensation program for its non-employee, outside directors, as described on page 36 of the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A for the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders, filed April 1, 2014, including an annual cash retainer of $100,000 and a $100,000 grant of restricted shares of the Company’s Class A common stock.
