Board Evaluations The Governance Committee oversees the Board’s annual performance evaluation to determine whether the Board, its committees and individual directors are functioning well in view of their responsibilities and the Company’s business. To conduct the self-evaluation process with greater transparency and rigor, the Board has for many years retained a third-party advisor to interview each director, review the directors’ collective feedback, and facilitate a discussion based on the results at a special executive session of the Board. This comprehensive and disciplined approach to evaluation has been an important element to maintaining a high-performing and collaborative Board that can properly address risk management and execution of Company strategy. On an annual basis, the Board and each committee conduct self-evaluations. The evaluations focus discussions on, among other things, the composition and effectiveness of the Board in light of changes in membership, the effectiveness of Dr. Sutaria and Senator Kerrey in their respective leadership positions, and the performance of each committee and committee chair. The Lead Director, in conjunction with the Governance Committee, also takes an oversight role in the Board performance evaluation process. In addition, directors provide input on key focus areas for the Board in the upcoming year. The results of the evaluation are reviewed by the Lead Director, who reports the results to the Board. As part of the annual performance evaluation process, each committee also compares its performance with the requirements of its charter. As part of the Board’s last annual evaluation, the Board noted, among other things, that its processes and committees were functioning properly, noting healthy levels of debate, collaboration and respect among directors.
