This excerpt taken from the EOG DEF 14A filed Apr 4, 2008. Ratification
of Appointment for 2008
The Audit Committee of the Board has appointed Deloitte to audit
our consolidated financial statements for the year ending
December 31, 2008, and such appointment has been approved
by the Board.
Ratification of this appointment shall be effective upon the
affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Common
Stock present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at
the Annual Meeting. Under Delaware law,
unlike broker non-votes (which occur if a broker or other
nominee does not have discretionary authority and has not
received instructions with respect to a particular proposal),
abstentions would have the same effect as a vote against this
proposal.
In the event the appointment of Deloitte is not ratified, the
Audit Committee will consider the appointment of other
independent auditors. A representative of Deloitte is expected
to be present at the Annual Meeting and will be available to
make a statement if such representative desires to do so and to
respond to appropriate questions.
