’s operating and governance environment at the time. At this time, the roles of CEO and Chairman are separate. We believe that, generally, separating the Chairman and CEO roles is a strong governance practice and contributes to the Board’s independence from management, while allowing the CEO to focus primarily on Brink’s business, strategy and operations. Pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), if the Chairman of the Board is not independent, the independent directors will elect an independent Lead Director to facilitate communication with the CEO, information flow and communications among non-management directors and provide feedback to the CEO on behalf of the non-management directors regarding business issues and Board management. Mr. Herling serves as the Company’s non-executive Chairman of the Board and has the following responsibilities: ■ presides over meetings of the Board and shareholders; ■ calls meetings and executive sessions of the Board; ■ develops the meeting agendas and ensure critical issues are addressed; ■ facilitates communication between and among directors and management and ensure the quality, quantity and timing of information from management; ■ has a lead role in the evaluation of the CEO; ■ serves as the representative of the Board with management and the public and interact with shareholders on behalf of the Board at the Board’s discretion; ■ facilitates communication between the Board and shareholders, at the Board’s discretion; ■ promotes effective communications on developments occurring between Board meetings; and ■ performs such other duties assigned from time to time by the Board.
