Audit Committee Report

The following is our Audit Committee’s report in its role as the overseer of the integrity of our financial statements, the financial reporting process, our independent auditor’s performance, including their qualification and independence, and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. In carrying out its oversight responsibilities, our Audit Committee is not providing any expert or special assurance as to our financial statements or any professional certification as to the outside auditor’s work. This report shall not be deemed to be soliciting material or to be filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act or incorporated by reference in any document so filed.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Corporation’s independent registered public accounting firm.

The Audit Committee has discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the matters required to be discussed with the independent auditors pursuant to Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communication with the Audit Committees), including the quality of the Corporation’s accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements. The Audit Committee also discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP matters relating to its independence, including review of audit and non-audit fees and the written disclosures and letter from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to the Audit Committee pursuant to Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees).

Taking all of these reviews and discussions into account, the undersigned Audit Committee members have recommended that the Board approve the Corporation’s 2008 audited financial statements and their inclusion in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, for filing with the SEC.
