Committee and pre-approved on a case-by-case basis. In addition, particular categories of permissible non-audit
services that are recurring may be pre-approved by the Audit Committee subject to pre-set fee limits. If a category
of services is so approved, the Audit Committee will be regularly updated regarding the status of those services
and the fees incurred. The Audit Committee reviews requests for the provision of audit and non-audit services by
the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and determines if they should be approved. Such
requests could be approved either at a meeting of the Audit Committee or upon approval of the Chair of the Audit
Committee, or another member of the Audit Committee designated by the Chair. If a permissible non-audit service
is approved by the Chair or his designee, that decision is required to be presented at the next meeting of the Audit
Committee. Prior to approving any services, the Audit Committee considers whether the provision of such services
is consistent with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules on auditor independence and is compatible with
maintaining KPMG LLP’s independence. All of the fees paid or payable to KPMG LLP for Fiscal 2012 were pre-
approved by the Audit Committee.
