 classes of common stock (or securities convertible    
 into common stock) if: (i) a clear business purpose is stated that we can support and the       
 number of shares requested is reasonable in relation to the purpose for which authorization     
 is requested; and/or (ii) the authorization does not exceed 100% of shares currently authorized 
 and at least 30% of the total new authorization will be outstanding. (We consider proposals     
 that do not meet these criteria on a case-by-case basis.)                                       |

| - | U.S. management proposals                                                                      
 to create a new class of preferred stock or for issuances of preferred stock up to 50% of      
 issued capital, unless we have concerns about use of the authority for anti-takeover purposes. |

| - | Proposals in non-U.S. markets                                                                     
 that in our view appropriately limit potential dilution of existing shareholders. A major         
 consideration is whether existing shareholders would have preemptive rights for any issuance      
 under a proposal for standing share issuance authority. We generally consider market-specific     
 guidance in making these decisions; for example, in the U.K. market we usually follow Association 
 of British Insurers' ("ABI") guidance, although company-specific factors may be                   
 considered and for example, may sometimes lead us to voting against share authorization proposals 
 even if they meet ABI guidance.                                                                   |

| - | Management proposals to authorize                                                                   
 share repurchase plans, except in some cases in which we believe there are insufficient protections 
 against use of an authorization for anti-takeover purposes.                                         |

| - | Management proposals to reduce                                                           
 the number of authorized shares of common or preferred stock, or to eliminate classes of 
 preferred stock.                                                                         |

| - | Management proposals to effect 
 stock splits.                  |

| - | Management proposals to effect                                                                 
 reverse stock splits if management proportionately reduces the authorized share amount set     
 forth in the corporate charter. Reverse stock splits that do not adjust proportionately to     
 the authorized share amount generally will be approved if the resulting increase in authorized 
 shares coincides with the proxy guidelines set forth above for common stock increases.         |

| - | Management dividend payout                                                         
 proposals, except where we perceive company payouts to shareholders as inadequate. |

We generally oppose the following (notwithstanding management support):

| - | Proposals to add classes of                                                          
 stock that would substantially dilute the voting interests of existing shareholders. |

| - | Proposals to increase the                                                                    
 authorized or issued number of shares of existing classes of stock that are
