| Corporate Governance |

BOARD COMPOSITION Board Nomination Process The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers director candidates recommended by the Company’s shareholders, directors, officers, and employees and third-party search firms and other sources it deems appropriate. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may engage consultants or third-party search firms to assist in identifying and evaluating potential director candidates. In this respect, Ms. Beschloss was recommended by other members of the Board. All candidates are reviewed in the same manner, regardless of the source of the recommendation. Any recommendation submitted to the Corporate Secretary of the Company should be in writing and should include any supporting material the shareholder considers appropriate in support of that recommendation, though must include information that would be required under the rules of the SEC to be included in a proxy statement soliciting proxies for the election of such candidate and a written consent of the candidate to serve as one of our directors if elected. Shareholders wishing to propose a candidate for consideration may do so by submitting the above information to the attention of the Corporate Secretary, The Carlyle Group, 1001 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20004. All recommendations for nomination received by the Corporate Secretary that satisfy the notification, timeliness, consent, information, and other requirements set forth in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation relating to director nominations will be presented to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for its consideration. See “Frequently Asked Questions—How can I submit nominees or shareholder proposals in accordance with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation?” for additional information. Director Qualifications The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing the qualifications of potential director candidates and recommending to the Board of Directors those candidates to be nominated for election to the Board. When considering director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee seeks individuals with backgrounds and qualities that, when combined with those of the Company’s incumbent directors, provide a blend of skills and experience
