PROPOSAL NO. 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

        The Board of Directors is currently comprised of seven directors, divided into three classes. Each class of directors consists of two to three directors, and each class of directors serves for a staggered three year term or until a successor is elected and qualified. The Class I directors are Mr. Mark M. Sieczkarek and Mr. Thomas Bonadio, whose current terms will end at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2010. The Class II directors are Mr. Michael Baker, Ms. Annette M. Bianchi and Mr. Peter L. Wilson, whose current terms will end at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2008. The Class III directors are Ms. Kathryn A. Tunstall and Mr. Robert Toni, whose current terms will end at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2009.

        The two current Class II directors standing for re-election in 2008 are Mr. Michael A. Baker and Mr. Peter L. Wilson. Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them for Messrs. Baker and Wilson. Ms. Annette M. Bianchi has elected to not stand for re-election. The Company has amended its bylaws to reduce the size of authorized directors effective at the Annual Meeting.

        In the event that any such nominee is unable or declines to serve as a director at the time of the Annual Meeting, the proxy holders will vote in their discretion for a substitute nominee. It is expected that all nominees will be able and willing to serve as directors.
