Meetings of the Board

During 2008, there were eight meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company. All of our directors at the time of the Company’s 2008 annual meeting of stockholders attended the annual meeting except C. David Brown II, who had an unavoidable conflict. Directors are expected to make every effort to attend the annual meeting of stockholders, all Board meetings and the meetings of the Committees on which they serve. Each director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and of Committees of which he or she was a member.

One Board meeting was our annual meeting of non-management directors. The non-management directors also regularly hold executive sessions during which the Company’s management does not participate.

Meetings of the Board

During 2007, there were twelve meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company. All of our directors at the time of the Company’s 2007 annual meeting of stockholders attended the annual meeting. Directors are expected to make every effort to attend the annual meeting of stockholders, all Board meetings and the meetings of the Committees on which they serve. Each director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and of Committees of which he or she was a member, except Mr. Edwin L. Banks, who attended 73.3% of the meetings that occurred while he was a member (five of seven Board meetings, one of two Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meetings and five of six Audit Committee meetings). The Company notes that three of the four meetings that Mr. Banks failed to attend occurred the same day, on which he had an unavoidable conflict.

One Board meeting was our annual meeting of non-management directors. The non-management directors also regularly hold executive sessions during which the Company’s management does not participate. Until the Board appointed its Lead Director (see below), the Chairs of the Audit, Management Planning and Development and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees, respectively, acted as presiding director at meetings or executive sessions of non-management directors (or parts thereof) on a rotating basis.
