Board Risk Oversight

Our Board as a whole has responsibility for risk oversight. Our Board exercises this risk oversight responsibility directly and through its committees. The risk oversight responsibility of our Board and its committees are informed by reports from our management teams to provide visibility to our Board about the identification, assessment, and management of key risks and our management’s risk mitigation strategies. Our Board has primary responsibility for evaluating strategic and operational risks, including those related to significant transactions. Our Audit Committee has primary responsibility for overseeing our major financial and accounting risk exposures and, among other things, discusses guidelines and policies with respect to assessing and managing risk with management and our independent auditor. Our Compensation Committee has responsibility for evaluating risks arising from our compensation and people policies and practices. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has responsibility for evaluating risks relating to our corporate governance practices. Our committees and management provide reports to our Board on these matters.

In its governance role, and particularly in exercising its duty of care and diligence, our Board is responsible for ensuring that appropriate risk management policies and procedures are in place to protect the Company’s assets and business. Our Board has broad and ultimate oversight responsibility for our risk management processes and programs, and executive management is responsible for the day-to-day evaluation and management of risks to the Company. We do not have a policy as to whether our Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer’s roles should be separate. Instead, our Board makes this determination based on what best serves our Company’s needs at any given time.
