Role

The Governance and Nominating Committee’s role is to determine the appropriate composition of the board and on that basis recommend a slate of director nominees for election to the Company’s Board of Directors, to identify and recommend candidates to fill vacancies between annual meetings of shareholders, and to review, evaluate, and recommend changes to the Company’s corporate governance framework.

Membership

The membership of the Committee consists of at least two directors, each of whom shall meet the independence requirements established by the Board and applicable laws, regulations and the listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market, LLC. The Board appoints the members of the Committee and the chairperson. The Board may remove any member from the Committee at any time with or without cause.

Operations

The Committee meets at least three times a year. Additional meetings may occur as a majority of the Committee or its chair deems advisable. The Committee will cause to be kept adequate minutes of its proceedings and will report on its actions and activities at the next quarterly meeting of the Board. Committee members will be furnished with copies of the minutes of each meeting and any action taken by unanimous consent. The Committee is governed by the same rules regarding meetings (including meetings by conference telephone or similar communications equipment), action without meetings, notice, waiver of notice, and quorum and voting requirements as apply to the Board (except that a quorum of the Committee shall consist of no fewer than two members). The Committee is authorized and empowered to adopt its own rules of procedure not inconsistent with (a) any provision of this Charter, (b) any provision of the Bylaws of the Company, or (c) the laws of the state of Colorado.

Authority

The Committee will have the resources and authority necessary to discharge its duties and responsibilities. The Committee has complete authority to retain and terminate outside counsel, any search firm used to identify director candidates, or other experts or consultants, as it deems appropriate, including complete authority to approve their fees and other retention terms. Any communications between the Committee and legal counsel while obtaining legal advice will be privileged communications of the Company and the Committee will take all necessary steps to preserve the privileged nature of those communications.

The Committee may form and delegate authority to subcommittees and may delegate authority to one or more designated members of the Committee.
