CORPORATE GOVERNANCE**\n\n \n\nUnder NASDAQ Stock Market\nRule 5615(a)(3), foreign private issuers, such as our company, are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance\npractices instead of certain provisions of the NASDAQ Stock Market Rules. A foreign private issuer that elects to follow a home country\npractice instead of any such NASDAQ rules must submit to NASDAQ, in advance, a written statement from an independent counsel in\nsuch issuer’s home country certifying that the issuer’s practices are not prohibited by the home country’s laws. We\nsubmitted such a written statement to NASDAQ. See “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—C. Board Practices—Corporate\nGovernance” for a summary of such differences."}
