The proposal was accepted by the Employee Benefits and Executive Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors effective May 16, 2009. On December 2, 2009, the Compensation Committee approved a partial restoration of these salary reductions effective January 1, 2010.
