 directors. Before recommending a sitting director for re-election, the Committee considers whether the director’s re-election would be consistent with the criteria for board membership in our Corporate Governance Guidelines (as described above) and the skills identified in the matrix used by the Committee (as described above), as well as prior shareholder votes for the election of the director and applicable rules and requirements of the SEC and NYSE. An individual incumbent director’s re-nomination is dependent upon a performance assessment and suitability review conducted by the Committee. The performance assessment takes into account the director’s participation in and contribution to the activities of the board. The Committee will also consider whether there is any evolving need for additional skills. When the Committee identifies desirable skills that are lacking among incumbent directors, the Committee searches to identify candidates who would add the missing skills. The search includes soliciting suggestions from incumbent directors, management or others and evaluating suggestions submitted by shareholders. The Committee may also engage a third party to identify and evaluate candidates.

| PROPOSAL 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS |     | Nomination process |

The Committee evaluates the candidates and if it agrees on the suitability of a candidate, the candidate is interviewed by each member of the board of directors. The Committee may also ask the candidate to meet with management. If the Committee concludes a candidate has skills that would add value to the board and the candidate meets all of the requirements for membership, the Committee will recommend the candidate to the full board for nomination for election or appointment (if the purpose of the search was to fill a vacancy). Our directors share certain characteristics that we believe are critical to effective board membership. They include sound and mature business judgment, critical thinking skills essential to intelligent decision-making, experience in policy making and risk assessment, integrity and honesty, and the ability to collaborate effectively. These characteristics, and the specific experiences and qualifications noted in the biographies found in the section headed “Nominees for Election” support the board’s nomination for election of each of these individuals. Board leadership structure The primary responsibility of our board of directors is to oversee and direct management in its conduct of our business. Members of the board are kept informed about our business through discussions with the Chairman and our officers, by reviewing materials provided to them, and by participating in board and committee meetings. In addition, non-management directors meet periodically in executive session without members of management present. These sessions are presided over by the Chairman of the Board of Directors,
