PROPOSAL 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Composition of the Board
The Board currently consists of eight directors. All directors serve a one-year term and are subject
to re-election each year.
The current composition of the Board is:
• Jerry C. Atkin, Chairman
• W. Steve Albrecht
• J. Ralph Atkin
• Margaret S. Billson
• Henry J. Eyring
• Robert G. Sarver
• Steven F. Udvar-Hazy
• James L. Welch
The Board Recommends That Shareholders
Vote FOR All Eight Nominees Listed Below.
Nominees for Election as Directors
At the Meeting, the Company proposes to elect eight directors to hold office until the 2014
Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until their successors have been elected and have qualified. The
eight nominees for election at the Meeting are listed below. All of the nominees are currently serving
as a director of the Company and have consented to be named as a nominee. As contemplated by the
Company’s Corporate Guidelines, Mr. Ian M. Cumming, who had served as a director of the Company
since 1986 and reached the age of 72 years, resigned as a director at the Board meeting held on
February 13, 2013. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board has
commenced a search to identify a qualified individual to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Cumming’s
resignation. That search is ongoing. Given the vacancy resulting from Mr. Cumming’s resignation,
shareholders voting in person or by proxy at the Meeting may only vote for eight nominees. If, prior to
the Meeting, any of the nominees becomes unable to serve as a director, the Board may designate a
substitute nominee. In that event, the persons named as proxies intend to vote for the substitute
nominee designated by the Board. .
The Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believe that each of the
following nominees possesses the experience and qualifications that directors of the Company should
possess, as described in detail below, and that the experience and qualifications of each nominee
compliments the experience and qualifications of the other nominees. The experience and qualifications
of each nominee, including information regarding the specific experience, qualifications, attributes and
skills that led the Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to conclude that
he or she should serve as a director of the Company at the present time, in light of the Company’s
business and structure, are set forth on the following pages.
