The Board will periodically review the appropriate size of the Board based on recommendations from the Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. IronClad’s Bylaws currently provide that the authorized number of directors will not be less than one nor more than twelve. Majority of Independent Directors. A majority of directors serving on the Board will meet the standards for independence set forth in the OTC QX, OTC QB, Nasdaq, NYSE or other stock exchange listing standards applicable to IronClad as the same may be amended from time to time (the “listing standards”), as well as other factors not inconsistent with the listing standards that the Board considers appropriate for effective oversight and decision-making by the Board. The Board will affirmatively determine annually and at other times required by the listing standards that the directors designated as independent have no material relationships to IronClad (either directly or with an organization in which the director is a partner, stockholder or officer or is financially interested) that may interfere with the exercise of their independence from management and IronClad. Directors serving on certain Board committees may be required to meet additional requirements as specified in the charter for that committee. Functions of Board. Directors are expected to attend Board meetings and meetings of committees on which they serve, and to spend the time needed and to meet as frequently as necessary to properly discharge their responsibilities.
