Effective February 1, 2015, the Company entered into Indemnification Agreements with its independent directors.

Accordingly, the Indemnification Agreements reiterate the Companys indemnification obligations to our independent directors and provide certain timelines and procedures for implementing such obligations.
Each Indemnification Agreement is substantially similar to the form indemnification agreement that was filed as Exhibit 10.13 to the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The Company may enter into Indemnification Agreements with officers and other directors on substantially similar terms in the future. The description of the form of indemnification agreement herein is a brief summary of its substance and is not a complete discussion. Accordingly, the foregoing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of indemnification agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference.
