Nominating, Corporate Governance and Social Responsibility Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Public Affairs and Social Responsibility Committee have merged to form one new committee. A new committee charter was approved at the April 24, 2008 Board of Director's meeting.

The Nominating, Corporate Governance and Social Responsibility Committee, which consists entirely of non-management directors, all of whom the Board has determined are independent within the meaning of the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become Board members, consistent with the criteria approved by the Board, recommending a slate of nominees for election at each annual meeting of stockholders, making recommendations to the Board concerning the appropriate size, function, needs and composition of the Board and its Committees, developing and recommending to the Board the Company's corporate governance principles and overseeing the evaluation of the Board and its Committees.  The Nominating, Corporate Governance and Social Responsibility Committee also provides oversight of the Company's public affairs, corporate reputation and social responsibility strategies.
