8.4 Supervisory and Control Instruments
The Company’s Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and non-audit services provided by its independent
auditors. This pre-approval must occur before the auditor is engaged. Audit services can be approved no more
than 6 months in advance of the services being performed. Services that last longer than a year must be re-
approved by the Audit Committee.
Logitech’s Audit Committee can delegate the pre-approval ability to a single independent member of the
Audit Committee. The delegate must communicate all services approved at the next scheduled Audit Committee
meeting. The Audit Committee or its delegate can pre-approve types of services to be performed by the auditors
with a set dollar limit per the type of service. The Chief Financial Officer is responsible for ensuring that the
work performed is within the scope and dollar limit as approved by the Audit Committee. Management must
report to the Audit Committee the status of each project or service provided by the auditors.
