        6.      The Committee shall, upon a significant change in a director’s personal
                circumstances (including a change in principal occupation) or in the event a
                significant ongoing time commitment arises that may be inconsistent with a
                director’s service on the Board, review, as appropriate and in light of the then
                current Board policies as reflected in the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the
                continued Board membership of such director.

        7.      The Committee shall advise the Board periodically with respect to significant

                laws and regulations, and make recommendations to the Board on all matters of
                corporate governance and on any action to be taken, as the Committee may deem

        10.     The Committee shall establish criteria and processes for, and lead the Board in, its
                annual performance self-evaluation. The Committee shall also establish criteria
                for the self-evaluations of each committee. The performance self-evaluations will
                focus on the contribution to the Company by the Board and each committee, and
                will specifically focus on areas in which a better contribution could be made.

        11.     The Committee shall, together with the Compensation Committee, evaluate
                annually the performances of the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer in
                light of goals and objectives approved by the Compensation Committee relevant
                to the compensation of the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer and report
                the results of the evaluations to the non- management directors.

                terms “transaction” and “related person” shall have the meanings contained in
                Item 404 of Regulation S-K.
