The Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation currently provides for a classified Board of Directors consisting of three classes of directors with staggered three-year terms, each class consisting, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the total number of directors. In 2007, the Board of Directors voted in favor of de-classifying the Company’s Board of Directors over a three-year period, and the Company’s shareholders ratified this action, which will result in annual elections of the Company’s directors beginning at the 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The terms of all directors, including those directors elected at the Annual Meeting and the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, will automatically expire upon the election of directors at the 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. A director’s term continues until the election and qualification of such director’s successor, or the earlier death, resignation or removal of such director.

 

The Board of Directors currently consists of nine persons, as follows:

 

Class I

 

(current term ends upon

the 2010 Annual Meeting of

Shareholders)


  

Class II

 

(current term ends upon

2008 Annual Meeting of

Shareholders)


  

Class III

 

(current term ends upon

2009 Annual Meeting of

Shareholders)

   Michael Goldstein, CPA    William L. Roper, MD, MPH

David B. Snow, Jr.

   Blenda J. Wilson, Ph.D.    David D. Stevens

 

The term of office for the three Class II directors listed above, John L. Cassis, Michael Goldstein and Blenda J. Wilson expires at the Annual Meeting. The Board of Directors has selected Mr. Cassis, Mr. Goldstein and Dr. Wilson as the nominees for the Class II directors to be elected at the Annual Meeting. The Class II directors elected will each serve for a term of two years, based on the de-classification of the Board of Directors described above, expiring at the 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders upon the due election and qualification of each of their successors.

 

The three nominees for election have agreed to serve if elected, and management has no reason to believe that such nominees will be unavailable to serve. In the event that any of the nominees is unable or declines to serve as a director at the time of the Annual Meeting, then the persons named as proxies may vote for a substitute nominee chosen by the present Board of Directors to fill the vacancy. Alternatively, the Board of Directors may reduce the size of the Board of Directors. Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will vote the shares represented by proxies received by them FOR each of the nominees named above.
