(d) As recommended by the Company’s Board of Directors, a majority of the votes cast by
stockholders voted, on a non-binding advisory basis, to hold future non-binding advisory votes to
approve compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year. In line with this
recommendation by the Company’s stockholders, the Board of Directors has determined that the
Company will include a non-binding advisory stockholder vote on compensation of the Company’s named
executive officers in its proxy materials every year until the next required non-binding advisory
vote on the frequency of stockholder votes on compensation of the Company’s named executive
officers, which will occur no later than the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2017.
