Composition

       Size. The size of the Committee shall be determined by the Board, subject to any
requirements or limitations in the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws. The Board
believes that the Committee should always have at least three members.

        Qualifications. Each Committee member shall meet the independence requirements as
may be applicable under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the
requirements of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) (or the comparable rule or
regulation of such other securities exchange or quotation system that has an independence
requirement on which the securities of the Company are then listed). Desirable qualifications for
Committee members include experience in corporate governance, business management,
personnel or human resources management, and organizational behavior.

        Selection. The Board shall select the initial Committee members. Thereafter, the Board
shall appoint Committee members annually based on recommendations of the Committee. The
Committee will select a Committee Chair from among its members. Each Committee member
will serve at the pleasure of the Board for such annual term or until such Committee member is
no longer a Board member.

Duties and Responsibilities

       The Committee has the following duties and responsibilities:

       1.     Identify New Director Candidates. The Committee shall identify individuals
              qualified to become Board members and recommend candidates to the Board to
              fill new or vacant positions. In recommending candidates, the Committee shall
              consider such factors as it deems appropriate, consistent with criteria approved by
              the Board and the factors in the Company’s corporate governance guidelines.
              These factors may include judgment, skill, diversity, integrity, experience with
businesses and other organizations of comparable size, the interplay of the
     candidate’s experience with the experience of other Board members, and the
     extent to which the candidate would be a desirable addition to the Board and any
     committees of the Board. The Committee shall also review the qualifications of,
     and make recommendations to the Board regarding, director nominations
     submitted to the Company in accordance with the Company’s bylaws or
     otherwise, and review and evaluate any stockholder proposals relating to the
     nomination by stockholders of any candidates to the Board or the right of any
     stockholder to do so.
2.   Director Resignations. The Committee shall review and evaluate director
     resignations. In addition, in the event any of the directors accept or change
     employment or board positions with other public companies, private equity firms
     or non-profit organizations, or if other events, circumstances or conditions occur
     that may interfere with their ability or qualifications to serve on the Board, the
     Committee shall review the matter and make a recommendation to the Board
     about their eligibility for continued Board membership.
3.   Recommend Committee Members. The Committee shall recommend candidates
     for appointment to the Company’s standing committees in accordance with the
     policies and principles in the committees’ charters and taking into consideration
     such other factors as it deems appropriate including business experience and the
     interplay of the candidate’s experience with that of the other committee members.
4.   Determine and Review Independence of Committee Members and Directors. The
     Committee shall evaluate and determine the applicable standard of independence
     for members of the Company’s standing committees in compliance with the
     Exchange Act, rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing rules of the NYSE
     (or the comparable rule or regulation of such other securities exchange or
     quotation system that has an independence requirement on which the securities of
     the Company are then listed). At least annually, the Committee shall review (in
     addition to the Board) the independence standard and any related independence
     issues with respect to the members of the Company’s standing committees and the
     Board.
5.   Evaluate Incumbent Directors. The Committee shall evaluate whether an
     incumbent director should be nominated for re-election to the Board.

6.   Review Non-Employee Director Compensation. In accordance with the
     Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Committee shall periodically
     review non-employee director compensation in relation to other comparable
     companies and in the light of such other factors as the Committee may deem
     appropriate. The Committee shall discuss this review with the Board.

7.   Develop Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Committee shall develop and
     recommend to the Board corporate governance guidelines applicable to the
     Company. At least annually, the Committee shall review those guidelines and

      SEC, and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

12.   Review Possible Conflicts of Interest. The Committee shall consider possible
      conflicts of interest of Board members and management and make
      recommendations to prevent, minimize, or eliminate such conflicts of interest.

      Company are then listed) and the Company’s Standards of Business Conduct, the

modifications, or any other amendments or modifications, shall be made to the
               Company’s corporate governance documents.

       16.     Other Delegated Duties or Responsibilities. The Committee shall perform any
               other duties or responsibilities delegated to the Committee by the Board from time
               to time.

Meetings

        The Committee will meet as frequently as necessary to carry out its responsibilities under
this Charter. The Committee Chair will, in consultation with the other members of the
Committee and appropriate officers of the Company, establish the agenda for each Committee
meeting. Any Committee member may submit items to be included on the agenda. Committee
members may also raise subjects that are not on the agenda at any meeting. The Committee
Chair or a majority of the Committee members may call a meeting of the Committee at any time.
A majority of the number of Committee members selected by the Board shall constitute a
quorum for conducting business at a meeting of the Committee. The act of a majority of
Committee members present at a Committee meeting at which a quorum is in attendance shall be
the act of the Committee, unless a greater number is required by law, the Company’s certificate
of incorporation or its bylaws. The Committee Chair shall supervise the conduct of the meetings
and shall have other responsibilities which the Committee may designate from time to time. The
Committee will cause to be kept adequate minutes of its meetings.

        The Committee may request any officer or other employee of the Company, or any
representative of the Company’s legal counsel or other advisors, to attend a meeting or to meet
with any members or representatives of the Committee. Any individual whose performance or
compensation is to be discussed at a Committee meeting should not attend such meeting unless
specifically invited by the Committee. Any Committee member may be excused from a meeting
to permit the remaining members of the Committee to act on any matter in which such member’s
participation is not appropriate, and such member’s absence shall not destroy the quorum for the
meeting.

Delegation

       The Committee may, in its discretion, delegate all or a portion of its duties and
responsibilities to a subcommittee of the Committee.

Resources and Authority

        The Committee shall have appropriate resources and authority to discharge its
responsibilities, including appropriate funding in such amount as the Committee deems
necessary, to compensate any consultants and any independent advisors retained by the
Committee. The Committee shall have the sole authority to retain and terminate any search firm
to assist in the identification of director candidates and the sole authority to set the fees and other
retention terms of such search firms. The Committee may also retain independent counsel and
other independent advisors to assist it in carrying out its responsibilities. The Committee may
also appoint a secretary, who does not need to be a director, to assist in the discharge of its
responsibilities.

and objectives of the Committee for the upcoming year. The Committee shall conduct its review
and evaluation in such manner as it deems appropriate.

Any Committee member may be excused from a meeting to permit the remaining members of the Committee to act on any matter in which such member’s participation is not appropriate, and such member’s absence shall not destroy the quorum for the meeting. Delegation The Committee may, in its discretion, delegate all or a portion of its duties and responsibilities to a subcommittee of the Committee.
