ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Information Concerning Nominees. Our Board of Directors determines the number of directors to nominate each year. Our by-laws require between five and 36 directors. Acting on the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, our Board has fixed the number of directors to be elected at the annual meeting at 17.

The Board has nominated the persons named on pages 32 and 33 for election as directors, to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and the election and qualification of their successors.

Your proxy, unless you direct otherwise, will be voted FOR all of the nominees named on pages 32 and 33. All of our nominees are currently directors.

All nominees consent to being named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected. Our Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unavailable or unable to serve as a director. If for any reason, however, any nominee is not available or able to serve, your proxy will be voted in accordance with the recommendation of our Board.

The table on pages 32 and 33 lists the following information, as of February 27, 2009, the record date:

All nominees have held the positions indicated or another senior executive position with the same entity or one of its affiliates or a predecessor entity for at least the past five years.
