Policy Governing Director Attendance at Annual Meetings of Stockholders
Our policy is to schedule a regular meeting of the board of directors on the same date as our annual
meeting of stockholders and, accordingly, directors are encouraged to be present at our stockholder meetings.
All nine (9) board members attended the annual meeting of stockholders held in 2007.
Board of Directors Evaluation Program
The board of directors performs annual self-evaluations of its composition and performance, including
evaluations of its standing committees and individual evaluations for each director. In addition, each of the
standing committees of the board of directors conducts it own self-evaluation, which is reported to the board
of directors. The board of directors retains the authority to engage its own advisors and consultants.
