| Process is Initiated   Committee Chair initiates annual evaluation process with the help of independent external advisor and the Corporate Secretary. |     | Evaluation   Each director completes an online questionnaire, as distributed by the external advisor, that solicits their opinions regarding the effectiveness of the Board and each committee on which they serve.

The process for obtaining feedback on individual director performance occurs during candid one-on-one interviews between each director and the external advisor, typically in alternating years. |

| Feedback Analysis   The external advisor aggregates online evaluation results and comments from any oral interviews with directors regarding the full Board, any committee on which the director serves, and peer feedback. Results are compiled on an unattributed basis and analyzed for any trends, including areas of strength or those that need improvement. The external advisor shares results with the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee Chair. |     |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Review and 
 Present Findings   The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee Chair presents the findings to the full Board and each specific committee. Separately, each committee chair leads a discussion with their respective committee of the applicable committee evaluation results and reports on their discussion to the Board. |     | Follow Up   Based on evaluation findings, the Board and each committee prepare action plans that prioritize areas that require additional consideration. These areas are addressed at subsequent Board and committee meetings and reported back to the full Board, where appropriate. The Board and committees regularly monitor progress of any agreed upon actions. |

In addition to the annual formal evaluation, our Chairman, CEO, Corporate Secretary, and Committee Chairs routinely communicate with directors to obtain real-time feedback. The Board believes that this continuous feedback, along with the formal evaluation process, contributes to its overall strength and ongoing effectiveness.
