 business. The CEO coordinates and manages the efforts of the Company’s senior executives to develop and achieve the Company’s current and long-term objectives and vision. The CEO is responsible for the Company’s operating policies and procedures and serves as the Company’s senior management representative to its clients, the financial community and the general public. In order to exercise his or her corporate authority with respect to significant matters having implications beyond one business segment or for the Company as a whole, the Corporate Authority Policy contemplates that the Company’s CEO shall be assisted by the GEB.

#### Succession planning
The Board is responsible for the succession plan for the Company’s CEO. To assist the Board, the CEO annually presents to the Board on succession planning for all senior officers of the Company with an assessment of senior managers and their potential to succeed the CEO and other senior management positions. The CEO also prepares, on a continuing basis, a short-term succession plan which delineates a temporary delegation of authority to certain officers of the Company if all or certain of the senior officers should unexpectedly become unable to perform their duties. The short-term succession plan will be in effect until the Board has the opportunity to consider the situation and take action, when necessary.

– Raise strategic or execution issues having Company-wide implications;

– Share best practices and lessons learned that have potentially multi-jurisdictional, multi-business segment or global implications;
