PROPOSAL 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS The accompanying proxy card, unless marked to the contrary, will be voted in favor of the election of Christopher J. Reading, Kathleen A. Gilmartin, Nancy J. Ham, Dr. Bernard A. Harris, Jr., Michael G. Mayrsohn, Anne B. Motsenbocker, Regg E. Swanson and Clayton K. Trier. All of these nominees, except Mr. Mayrsohn, are current directors standing for re-election at the Annual Meeting to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until their successor is elected and qualified. Mr. Mayrsohn currently is the Chief Executive Officer of, and an owner in, the Company’s recently acquired MSO Metro, LLC (“Metro”) subsidiary in New York. The Governance and Nominating Committee, which consists solely of directors who are independent under the applicable New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing standards, recommended that from and after the Annual Meeting the Board consist of eight directors and recommended the nomination of all seven current directors and Mr. Mayrsohn. Based on that recommendation, the Board resolved that from and after the Annual Meeting the Board shall consist of eight directors and the Board nominated each of the foregoing eight nominees recommended by the Governance and Nominating Committee for election at the Annual Meeting. The Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that Messrs. Trier and Swanson, Dr. Harris and Mses. Gilmartin, Ham and Motsenbocker, are independent under the NYSE listing standards. Mr. Reading, who is an executive officer of the Company, and Mr. Mayrsohn, who is an executive officer of one of the Company’s subsidiaries, were determined not to be independent under the NYSE listing standards. The nominees for director are:
