Audit Committee. The Charter for the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is available on the Company’s website. Please note that the information on the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement. The Charter requires that the Audit Committee be comprised of at least three members, all of whom must be independent as defined in the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. The current members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Ammerman, Barnum, Gray, and Tom Roach, all of whom are “independent” under the current NYSE listing standards and SEC rules regarding audit committee membership. Mr. Roach has not been nominated for re-election to the Board of Directors and will no longer serve as a Director or member of the Audit Committee after the Annual Meeting. Although more than one member of the committee is believed to qualify as an audit committee financial expert, the Board has designated Mr. Ammerman as that expert.

      The Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in discharging its responsibilities to oversee the integrity of the Company’s financial statements, the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the independent auditor’s qualifications and independence, and the performance of the Company’s internal auditors. It has direct responsibility for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the work of any independent auditors employed by the Company for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attestation services. The Audit Committee is also responsible for producing an Audit Committee Report for inclusion in the Company’s Proxy Statement. The Audit Committee held five meetings during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2005.
