This excerpt taken from the RVBD DEF 14A filed Apr 24, 2009. Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors oversees the nomination of directors, including, among other things, identifying, evaluating and making recommendations of nominees to the Board of Directors, and evaluates the performance of the Board of Directors and individual directors. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee is also responsible for reviewing developments in corporate governance practices, evaluating the adequacy of our corporate governance practices and making recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning corporate governance matters. A more detailed description of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committees functions can be found in our Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee charter. The current members of our Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee are Messrs. Kourey, Meresman and Schaepe, each of whom are independent under the listing standards of Nasdaq. Mr. Kourey chairs the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee believes that candidates for director should have certain minimum qualifications, including having the highest professional and personal ethics and values, broad experience at the policy-making level in business, government, education, technology or public interest, a commitment to enhancing stockholder value, and sufficient time to carry out their duties and to provide insight and practical wisdom based on experience. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee also considers such other factors as various and relevant career experience, relevant skills, such as an understanding of WAN Optimization, financial expertise, diversity and local and community ties. Candidates for director nominees are reviewed in the context of the current composition of the Board of Directors, the operating requirements of the Company and the long-term interests of stockholders. In conducting this assessment, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee considers diversity, age, skills, and such other factors as it deems appropriate, given the then-current needs of the Board of Directors and the Company, to maintain a balance of knowledge, experience and capability. In the case of incumbent directors whose terms of office are set to expire, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee reviews such directors overall performance during their term, including the number of meetings attended, level of participation, quality of performance, and any other relationships and transactions that might impair such directors independence. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee then compiles a list of potential candidates, using relevant sources, which may include other current members of the Board of Directors, professional search firms, and stockholders. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee conducts any appropriate and necessary inquiries into the backgrounds and qualifications of possible candidates after considering the function and needs of the Board of Directors. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee meets to discuss and consider such candidates qualifications and then selects a nominee for recommendation to the Board of Directors. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders and evaluate them using the same criteria as candidates identified by the Board of Directors or the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee for consideration. If a stockholder of the Company wishes to recommend a director candidate for consideration by the
