Make recommendations to the Board for approval regarding the membership of the Board committees (subject to the rights of the holder of the share of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, if applicable), giving consideration to the criteria for service on each committee as set forth in the charter for such committee, as well as to any other factors the Committee deems relevant, and the respective responsibilities of each Board committee; S.
