fluctuates so does the number of suppliers that need to be assessed to achieve our goal
– i.e. the achievement of the target is not tied to a base year.

Service on Other Boards
The Company does not have a policy restricting the number of boards of directors on
which a director may serve.
Communications with the public, the press, customers, securities analysts and
shareholders should typically be handled by the Chief Executive Officer or other senior
management.
As part of this
guideline, all directors are required to retain 100% of all shares obtained through the
Company as compensation for services provided to the Company, such percentage to be
calculated after any reduction in the number of shares to be delivered as a result of any
taxes and exercise costs relating to such shares.
