Section 303A.03 of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") Listed Company Manual requires NYSE- listed companies to disclose in their annual proxy statements the name of the non-management director who is chosen to preside at all regularly-scheduled executive sessions of the non-management members of the board of directors, if one director is chosen to preside at all of these meetings. Section 303A.09 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires NYSE-listed companies to disclose in their annual proxy statements that their corporate governance guidelines and the charters of their most important committees are available on the listed companies' websites, and in print to any shareholder who requests such information.

 

In response to questions posed by the NYSE with respect to the Registrant's latest annual proxy statement, dated June 21, 2005 (the "2005 Proxy Statement"), this Report confirms that:

 

(a)       Robert M. Dewey, Jr., who is identified in the 2005 Proxy Statement as the Registrant's "non-executive Chairman of the Board of Directors", presides at all meetings of the Board of Directors, including all executive sessions of the Board of Directors; and

 

(b)       the Registrant's corporate governance guidelines are available on the corporate governance link on the Investor Relations section of its website, located at the web address set forth in the 2005 Proxy Statement, and in print to any person who makes a request in writing for such information to the address set forth in the 2005 Proxy Statement.
