In the event that a quorum is not present at the annual meeting, you may also be asked to vote upon a proposal to adjourn or postpone the annual meeting to solicit additional proxies.

 

Record Date

 

Our Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on July 22, 2019, as the record date for the annual meeting and only holders of record of our common stock on the record date are entitled to vote at the annual meeting. On the record date, there were outstanding 512,682,393 shares of our common stock.

 

Voting Rights and Quorum

 

Each share of our common stock is entitled to one vote. The presence in person or representation by proxy of holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of the close of business on July 22, 2019, will constitute a quorum at the annual meeting. If a share is represented for any purpose at the meeting, it is deemed to be present for the transaction of all business. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business. In the event that a quorum is not present at the annual meeting, it is expected that the annual meeting will be adjourned or postponed to solicit additional proxies.

Vote Required

 

Each item to be acted upon at the meeting requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock represented at the meeting in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the item, assuming that a quorum is present or represented at the meeting. A properly executed proxy marked “WITHHOLD” with respect to the election of one or more directors will not be voted with respect to the director or directors indicated, and will have no effect. With respect to the other proposals, a properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN,” although counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum, will not be voted. Accordingly, an abstention will have the same effect as a vote cast against a proposal. Under Nevada law, a broker non-vote will have no effect on the outcome of the matters presented for a stockholder vote.

 

If you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” by a broker, your broker, as the record holder of the shares, must vote those shares in accordance with your instructions. In accordance with the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), a brokerage firm may give a proxy to vote its customer’s stock without customer instructions if the brokerage firm (i) transmitted proxy materials to the beneficial owner of the stock, (ii) did not receive voting instructions by the date specified in the statement accompanying the proxy materials and (iii) has no knowledge of any contest with respect to the actions to be taken at the stockholders’ meeting and such actions are adequately disclosed to stockholders. In addition, under new NYSE rules, brokerage firms may not vote their customers’ stock without instructions from the customer if the vote concerns the election of directors, a matter relating to executive compensation, including the advisory proposal on compensation and the advisory proposal on how frequently stockholders should vote to approve the compensation of the named executive officers, which will be voted on at the meeting, or an authorization for a merger, consolidation or any matter that could substantially affect the rights or privileges of the stock.

You may also grant your proxy to vote by returning a signed, dated and marked proxy card, by telephone or over the Internet.

 

Unless you specify to the contrary, all of your shares represented by valid proxies will be voted

FOR” all director nominees; and
FOR” the appointment of ShineWing Australia as our independent registered public accounting firm.

 

The persons you name as proxies may propose and vote for one or more adjournments or postponements of the annual meeting, including adjournments or postponements to permit further solicitations of proxies. Such proxy holders may also vote in its discretion on any other matters that properly come before the annual meeting.

We were parties to a loan from the Bank of China (Malaysia) Berhad consisting of a revolving line of credit, or the RC, in the amount of RM15,000,000 and a term loan, or the TL, in the amount of RM40,000,000, for an aggregate of RM55,000,000 in December 2014.

The loan with Bank of China (Malaysia) Berhad has been redeemed through the loan granted by Public Islamic Bank Berhad in April 2019.

 

In August 2018, the Company, through PGCG Assets obtained a loan in the principal amount of RM50,000,000 from Public Islamic Bank Berhad, a financial institution in Malaysia to finance the acquisition of a fifteen story office building property, which bears interest at a rate of 1.50% per annum below the base financing rate, currently 6.97% per annum, with 180 monthly installments of RM407,750 each (including interests) over a period of 15 years or until full settlement and will mature in September 2033.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

 

Director Independence

 

We have adopted standards for director independence that correspond to NYSE listing standards and SEC rules. An “independent director” means a person who is not an officer or employee of the Company or its subsidiaries, or any other individual having a relationship that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. To be considered independent, the Board must affirmatively determine that neither the director, nor any member of his or her immediate family, has had any direct or indirect material relationship with the Company within the previous three years. In addition, to be considered “independent” under SEC rules, each member of the Audit Committee may not accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from us, other than compensation for his or her services as a director.

 

The Board considered relationships, transactions and/or arrangements with each of the directors and concluded that none of the non-employee directors, or any of his or her immediate family members, has any relationship with us that would impair his or her independence. The Board has determined that each member of the Board, other than Mr. Wong, is an independent director under applicable NYSE listing standards and SEC rules. Mr. Wong does not meet the independence standards because he is an employee and executive officer of the Company.

 

Board Meetings

 

During fiscal year 2019, our Board held 1 meeting and acted by written consent 1 times during fiscal 2019 and 1 meeting and acted by written consent 1 times during the six months ended April 30, 2019. Our independent directors did not meet in executive sessions without the presence of any of our executive officers. Each director attended all meetings held during fiscal year 2018 and during the six months ended April 30, 2019. No director attended less than 75 percent of our Board or committee meetings of which they were members. The work of the Company’s directors is performed not only at meetings of the Board, but also by consideration of the Company’s significant business decisions through the review of documents and in numerous communications among Board members and others.

 

Director Attendance at Annual Meeting

 

We have not yet developed a policy regarding director attendance at annual meetings of the stockholders. A majority of our directors attended our 2018 Annual Stockholders Meeting.

 

Committees of Our Board

 

The members of each of our Compensation, Audit, and Nominations and Corporate Governance committees are comprised of our two independent directors Maylee Gan Suat Lee and Soo Choon Meng. Maylee Gan Suat Lee and Soo Choon Meng were appointed to serve as the Chairman or Chairperson, as applicable, of the Compensation Committee and the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee, respectively. The Company current does not have an Audit Committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act but hopes to have one as its business develops. Copies of the charters for each of the Compensation, Audit and Nominations and Corporate Governance Committees are filed as Appendices A, B and C respectively, to this Proxy Statement.

 

Compensation Committee

 

Our Compensation Committee is responsible for developing and overseeing the implementation of our philosophy with respect to the compensation of executives and for monitoring the implementation and results of the compensation philosophy to ensure compensation remains competitive, creates proper incentives to enhance stockholder value and rewards superior performance. The Compensation Committee annually reviews and approves for each named executive officer, and particularly with regard to the Chief Executive Officer, all components of the executive’s compensation. The Compensation Committee may award discretionary bonuses to each of the named executives, and reviews and approves the process and factors (including individual and corporate performance measures and actual performance versus such measures) used by the Chief Executive Officer to recommend such awards. Additionally, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves the base salary, equity-incentive awards (if any) and any other special or supplemental benefits of the named executive officers. For additional information regarding the operation of the Compensation Committee, see our discussion under the section entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” of this proxy statement.

The Nominations and Governance Committee held 3 meetings during fiscal 2018 and 2 meetings during the six months ended April 30, 2019. The charter of the Nominations and Governance Committee is included as Appendix C to this Proxy Statement.

 

Consideration of Director Nominees

 

The policy of the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee is to consider properly submitted shareholder nominations for candidates for membership on the Board as described below under “Identifying and Evaluating Nominees for Directors” and “Stockholder Proposals.” In evaluating nominations, the Governance and Nominating Committee seeks to achieve a balance of knowledge, experience and capability on our Board and to address the membership criteria set forth below under “Board Diversity and Director Qualifications.”

 

Board Diversity and Director Qualifications

 

Although there is no specific board diversity policy in place presently, the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee does consider such factors as it deems appropriate and consistent with our the charter of the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee and other criteria which may be established by our Board. The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee’s goal in selecting directors for nomination to our Board is generally to seek to create a well-balanced team that combines diverse experience, skill and intellect of seasoned directors in order to enable us to pursue our strategic objectives. The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee has not reduced the qualifications for service on our Board to a checklist of specific standards or specific, minimum qualifications, skills or qualities. Rather, we seek, consistent with the vacancies existing on our Board at any particular time and the interplay of a particular candidate’s experience with the experience of other Directors, to select individuals whose business experience, knowledge, skills, diversity and integrity would be considered a desirable addition to our Board and any committees thereof. In addition, the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee annually conducts an informal review of incumbent Directors in order to determine whether a Director should be nominated for re-election to our Board.

 

The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee makes determinations as to Director selection based upon the facts and circumstances at the time of the receipt of the Director candidate recommendation. Applicable considerations include: whether the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee is currently looking to fill a new position created by an expansion of the number of Directors, or a vacancy that may exist on our Board; whether the current composition of our Board is consistent with the criteria described in our charter; whether the candidate submitted possesses the qualifications that are generally the basis for selection of candidates to our Board; and whether the candidate would be considered independent under the rules of the NYSE and our standards with respect to Director independence.

Identifying and Evaluating Nominees for Directors

 

The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee utilizes a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating nominees for Director. The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee considers the appropriate size of our Board and whether any vacancies on our Board are expected due to retirement or otherwise. In the event that vacancies are anticipated, or otherwise arise, the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee will consider various potential candidates for Director. Candidates may come to the attention of the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee through current Board members, professional search firms, shareholders or other persons. As described above, the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee considers properly submitted nominations for candidates for our Board. Following verification of the recommending shareholder’s status, recommendations are considered by the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

 

Communications with Our Board

 

Stockholders and interested parties who wish to contact our Board, a committee thereof, the presiding non-management director of executive sessions or any individual director are invited to do so by writing to:

 

Board of Directors of Prime Global Capital Group Incorporated

c/o Corporate Secretary

E-5-2, Megan Avenue 1, Block E

Jalan Tun Razak

50400 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

 

All communications will be forwarded to our Board of Directors, the specified committee or the specified individual director, as appropriate.

 

Board Leadership Structure

 

We intend to designate Dato’ Weng Kung Wong to serve as executive member of the Board upon re-election to the Board. As the Chief Executive Officer, Interim Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of the Company, we believe that Mr. Wong will bring to the Board extensive experience and familiarity with our business in particular and its industries generally. We believe this background enhances the role of executive members of the Board in the development of long-term strategic plans and oversight of senior management in the implementation of those plans. We provide independent directors with opportunities to meet in executive sessions without management present at the time of each regular Board meeting and additionally as deemed appropriate or necessary. Because Mr. Wong is not independent under NYSE standards, the chair at these executive sessions will rotate among the chairman of the Compensation Committee, the Audit Committee and the Nominating and Governance Committee. We believe that this structure will allow multiple directors to exercise important leadership roles, and will also provide for focused engagement by the Board committees and their chairs in their respective areas of responsibility. We believe that this structure will help facilitate clear and open communications between the Board of Directors and senior management, while providing for active oversight by independent directors. For the above reasons, the Board of Directors believes the current and the prospective leadership structure is appropriate for the Company.

 

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

 

Our management team is primarily responsible for the day-to-day assessment and management of the Company’s risk exposure. The Board of Directors provides oversight in connection with these efforts, with a particular focus on the most significant risks facing us. The Board of Directors believes that communication between the management team and the Board of Directors is essential for both effective risk management and for meaningful oversight. To this end, the Board of Directors meets with our Chief Executive Officer and the other members of our senior management team to discuss strategies, key challenges, and risks and opportunities for us. Management team members make themselves available to the Board of Directors to answer questions regarding the Company’s most significant issues, including risks affecting the Company.

 

 

 

 9 

 

 

In order to help facilitate its risk oversight responsibilities, the Board of Directors intends to utilize each of its committees to oversee specific areas of risk that are appropriately related to the committee’s areas of responsibility once such committees are established. The Audit Committee will assist the Board of Directors in discharging its oversight responsibilities in the areas of internal control over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures and legal and regulatory compliance. The Audit Committee will discuss with management, the internal audit group and the independent auditor guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The Audit Committee will also discuss with management the Company’s major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposure. The Compensation Committee will assist the Board of Directors in discharging its oversight responsibilities regarding the risks related to the attraction and retention of personnel as well as the risks associated with the design of compensation programs and arrangements applicable to both executive officers and to all employees. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will establish, monitor and evaluate the implementation of our corporate governance policies. While the Board committees will be responsible for initially monitoring certain risks, the entire Board of Directors will be kept informed of the significant risks facing the Company through management and committee reports about such risks and the steps being taken to mitigate these risks.

 

Risk Assessment of Compensation Policies and Practices

 

Our Board of Directors oversees management’s evaluation of whether our employee compensation policies and practices pose any risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. In conducting this evaluation, management reviews our overall compensation structure, taking into account the overall mix of compensation and the overall business risk. Management undertakes such a review periodically and reports to the Board any finding that a risk related to our compensation structure may exist, as well as any factors which may mitigate the risk posed by the particular compensation policy or practice. We have determined that there are currently no risks arising from our compensation policies and practices that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

 

Employee, Director and Officer Hedging

 

We have not adopted any practice or policy regarding the ability of our employees (including officers) or directors, or any of their designees, to purchase financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds), or otherwise engage in transactions, that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset, any decrease in the market value of our equity securities. As such, our employees, officer, directors or their designees are generally permitted to engage in these transactions.

 

Code of Conduct

 

On February 2, 2012, our Board of Directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to all employees of the Company including the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer and the principal accounting officer. The Board also adopted a separate Code of Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officers, which contains provisions specifically applicable to our Chief Executive Officer and senior financial officers including the Chief Financial Officer. A copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Code of Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officer are filed as Exhibit 7 to this Annual Report and are incorporated herein by reference. The Company will provide a copy of its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Code of Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officers upon written request addressed to the Secretary of the Company.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

 

Our executive compensation philosophy is to create a long-term direct relationship between pay and our performance. Our executive compensation program is designed to provide a balanced total compensation package over the executive’s career with us. The compensation program objectives are to attract, motivate and retain the qualified executives that help ensure our future success, to provide incentives for increasing our profits by awarding executives when corporate goals are achieved and to align the interests of executives and long-term stockholders. The compensation package of our named executive officers consists of two main elements:

 

  1. base salary for our executives that is competitive relative to the market, and that reflects individual performance, retention and other relevant considerations; and

  2. discretionary bonus awards payable in cash and tied to the satisfaction of corporate objectives.

 

Process for Setting Executive Compensation

 

Our Compensation Committee is responsible for developing and overseeing the implementation of our philosophy with respect to the compensation of executives and for monitoring the implementation and results of the compensation philosophy to ensure compensation remains competitive, creates proper incentives to enhance stockholder value and rewards superior performance. The Compensation Committee annually reviews and approves for each named executive officer, and particularly with regard to the Chief Executive Officer, all components of the executive’s compensation. The Compensation Committee may award discretionary bonuses to each of the named executives, and reviews and approves the process and factors (including individual and corporate performance measures and actual performance versus such measures) used by the Chief Executive Officer to recommend such awards. Additionally, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves the base salary, equity-incentive awards (if any) and any other special or supplemental benefits of the named executive officers.

 

The Chief Executive Officer periodically provides the Compensation Committee with an evaluation of each named executive officer’s performance, based on the individual performance goals and objectives developed by the Chief Executive Officer at the beginning of the year, as well as other factors. The Compensation Committee provides an evaluation for the Chief Executive Officer. These evaluations serve as the bases for bonus recommendations and changes in the compensation arrangements of our named executives.

 

Our Compensation Peer Group

 

We currently engage in informal market analysis in evaluating our executive compensation arrangements. As the Company and its businesses mature, we may retain compensation consultants that will assist us in developing a formal benchmark and selecting a compensation peer group of companies similar to us in size or business for the purpose of comparing executive compensation levels.

 

Program Components

 

Our executive compensation program consists of the following elements:

 

 

 

 11 

 

 

Base Salary

 

Our base salary structure is designed to encourage internal growth, attract and retain new talent, and reward strong leadership that will sustain our growth and profitability. The base salary for each named executive officer reflects our past and current operating profits, the named executive officer’s individual contribution to our success throughout his career, internal pay equity and informal market data regarding comparable positions within similarly situated companies. In determining and setting base salary, the Compensation Committee considers all of these factors, though it does not assign specific weights to any factor. The Compensation Committee generally reviews the base salary for each named executive officer on an annual basis. For each of our named executive officers, we review base salary data internally obtained by the Company for comparable executive positions in similarly situated companies to ensure that the base salary rate for each executive is competitive relative to the market.

 

Discretionary Bonus

 

The objectives of our bonus awards are to encourage and reward our employees, including the named executive officers, who contribute to and participate in our success by their ability, industry, leadership, loyalty or exceptional service and to recruit additional executives who will contribute to that success.

 

Each of our named executive officers is eligible for consideration for a discretionary cash bonus. The Chief Executive Officer makes recommendations regarding bonus awards for the named executive officers and the Compensation Committee provides the bonus recommendation for the Chief Executive Officer. However, the Compensation Committee has sole and final authority and discretion in designating to whom awards are made, the size of the award, if any, and its terms and conditions. The bonus recommendation for each of the named executive officers depends on a number of factors, including (i) the performance of the Company for the year, (ii) the satisfaction of certain individual and corporate performance measures, and (iii) other factors which the Compensation Committee may deem relevant. The Company did not award any cash bonuses during fiscal year 2018 and for the six months ended April 30, 2019.

 

Stock Holdings

 

The Compensation Committee recognizes the importance of having a portion of the named executive officers’ compensation be paid in the form of equity, to help align the executives’ interests with the interests of the Company’s stockholders. At this point, however, the Compensation Committee has chosen to emphasize the cash-based portion of our compensation program over a stock program because it believes the discretionary nature of the cash-based compensation gives it the needed flexibility to factor in and reward the attainment of longer-term goals for the Company and the executives, as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate.

 

Accordingly, we encourage, but do not insist on, executive ownership of our common stock. Methods of supporting ownership include turning to executives to support the financing needs of the Company. We have historically allowed our named executives to participate in private placements of the Company’s securities on the same terms and conditions as other investors. During fiscal year 2012, our Chief Executive Officer invested approximately US $20,890,272 into the Company resulting in a beneficial ownership of 54,811,085 shares of common stock, or approximately 10.69% of our issued and outstanding common stock. Our executive officers did not purchase any of our securities during fiscal year 2019 and the six months ended April 30, 2019. We believe that this practice achieves the dual goals of meeting the Company’s financing needs and aligning our executives’ interests with the interests of our stockholders.

 

We have not timed nor do we plan to time our release of material non-public information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

ShineWing Australia’s principal function is to audit management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and our consolidated financial statements and, in connection with that audit, to review certain related filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to conduct limited reviews of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports.

 

Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the proposal to ratify the appointment of ShineWing Australia as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2019.

 

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

 

 

Proposals by stockholders intended to be presented at the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement for that annual meeting, must be personally delivered or mailed to our principal executive offices, as required by our Amended and Restated By-Laws, no later than 45 days prior to the mailing the proxy, to the attention of the Corporate Secretary as follows: our principal executive offices at E-5-2, Megan Avenue 1, Block E, Jalan Tun Razak, 50400 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

 

With respect to any proposal by a stockholder not seeking to have its proposal included in the proxy statement but seeking to have its proposal considered at the 2019 Annual Stockholders Meeting, if that stockholder fails to notify us of its proposal in the manner set forth above, then the persons appointed as proxies may exercise their discretionary voting authority if the proposal is considered at the 2019 annual meeting, notwithstanding that stockholders have not been advised of the proposal in the proxy statement for the 2019 annual meeting. Any stockholder proposals must comply in all respects with Rule 14a-8 of Regulation 14A and other applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

In order for a stockholder to bring other business before a stockholder meeting, timely notice must be received by us within the time limits described in the immediately preceding paragraph. The stockholder’s notice must contain:

a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting;
the name and record address of the shareholder proposing such business;
the class and number of shares of the corporation which are beneficially owned by the shareholder;
a description of any material interest of such shareholder in such business;
a representation that such shareholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to bring such business before the meeting; and
any other information required by law.

Our amended bylaws provide that a stockholder entitled to vote for the election of our directors may nominate persons for election to our Board of Directors by delivering written notice to our corporate secretary. With respect to an election to be held at an annual meeting of stockholders, such notice generally must be delivered not later than the close of business on the 45th day prior to the mailing of the proxy.

 

The stockholder’s notice must include:

(a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a director,

the name, age, business address and residence address of the person;
the principal occupation or employment of the person;
the class and number of shares of the corporation which are beneficially owned by the person;
any other information relating to the person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations for proxies for election of directors pursuant to Rule 14a under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and

(b) as to the stockholder giving the notice,

the name and record address of the stockholder; and
the class and number of shares of the corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder. 

We may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by us to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the corporation.

 

Because the 2019 annual meeting is to be held on September 18, 2019, our corporate secretary must have received written notice of a stockholder proposal to be acted upon at the 2019 annual meeting not later than the close of business on August 6, 2019, nor earlier than the close of business on July 22, 2019.

 

The requirements found in our amended and restated bylaws are separate from and in addition to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission that a stockholder must meet to have a proposal included in our proxy statement. We will furnish any stockholder desiring a copy of our amended bylaws without charge by writing to our corporate secretary as described in “Voting and Revocation of Proxies.”

Committee Membership

 

The Committee shall consist of at least three members of the Board of Directors, each of whom is determined by the Board of Directors to be “independent” under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and regulations of NASDAQ, NYSE AMEX or such other exchange on which the Company’s common stock is traded (the rules and regulations of NASDAQ will apply if the Company’s common stock is traded on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board). One director who is not independent may be appointed to the Committee, subject to the following:

 

  the director is not a current officer or employee, or an immediate family member of a current officer or employee, of the Company;

 

  the Board of Directors, under exceptional and limited circumstances, determines that such individual’s membership on the Committee is required by the best interests of the Company and its stockholders;

 

  the Company discloses in the proxy statement for the next annual meeting of stockholders subsequent to such determination (or in its Form 10-K if the Company does not file a proxy statement), the nature of the relationship and the reason for that determination; and

 

  such person does not serve under this exception on the Committee for more than two years.

 

 

 

 A-1 

 

 

Appointment and Removal

 

The members of the Committee shall be appointed by the Board of Directors. A member shall serve until such member’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until such member’s earlier resignation or removal. The members of the Committee may be removed, with or without cause, by a majority vote of the Board of Directors.

 

Chairman

 

Unless a Chairman is elected by the full Board of Directors, the members of the Committee shall designate a Chairman by majority vote of the full Committee membership. The Chairman will chair all regular sessions of the Committee and set the agendas for Committee meetings.

 

Delegation to Subcommittees

 

The Board of Directors may allocate the responsibilities of the Committee to other committees of its own designation provided that any such committee consists solely of independent directors and has a published committee charter. In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Committee shall be entitled to delegate any or all of its responsibilities to a subcommittee of the Committee.

 

Meetings

 

The Committee shall meet as frequently as circumstances dictate. The Chairman of the Committee or a majority of the members of the Committee may call meetings of the Committee. Any one or more of the members of the Committee may participate in a meeting of the Committee by means of conference call or similar communication device by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other.

 

All non-management directors who are not members of the Committee may attend meetings of the Committee, but may not vote. In addition, the Committee may invite to its meetings any director, member of management of the Company, and such other persons as it deems appropriate in order to carry out its responsibilities. The Committee may also exclude from its meetings any persons it deems appropriate.

 

As part of its review and establishment of the performance criteria and compensation of designated key executives, the Committee should meet separately at least on an annual basis with the CEO and any other corporate officers as it deems appropriate. However, the Committee should also meet from time to time without such officers present, and in all cases, such officers shall not be present at meetings at which their performance and compensation are being discussed and determined.

 

Duties and Responsibilities

 

The basic responsibility of the members of the Committee is to exercise their business judgment to act in what they reasonably believe to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. In discharging that obligation, members should be entitled to rely on the honesty and integrity of the Company’s senior executives and its outside auditors, attorneys and advisors, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Pursuant to the Bylaws of the Company, the Committee shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board in all matters required, necessary or reasonable in the performance of the Committee purpose, responsibility and functions described in this Charter.

 

The Committee shall carry out the duties and responsibilities set forth below. These functions should serve as a guide with the understanding that the Committee may determine to carry out additional functions and adopt additional policies and procedures as may be appropriate in light of changing business, legislative, regulatory, legal, or other conditions. The Committee shall also carry out any other responsibilities and duties as are reasonably delegated to it, pursuant to applicable law, by the Board of Directors from time to time related to the purposes of the Committee outlined in this Charter.

 

 

 

 A-2 

 

 

In discharging its oversight role, the Committee is empowered to study or investigate any matter of interest or concern that the Committee deems appropriate and shall have the sole authority, without seeking Board approval, to retain outside counsel or other advisors, experts and staff for this purpose, including the authority to approve the fees payable to such counsel or advisors, experts and staff and any other terms of retention, at the sole cost and expense of the Company and without any further approval or authorization. In addition to individual compensation to members for serving on the Committee as reasonably determined by the Board, the Company shall provide appropriate funding, as determined by the Committee, for payment of (i) compensation to any counsel, experts or other advisers employed by the Committee, (ii) obtaining any insurance coverage deemed reasonable or necessary by the Committee, and (iii) funding ordinary administrative expenses of the Committee that it deems reasonable or necessary in carrying out its duties, subject only to any limitations imposed by applicable laws, rules and regulations.

  4.

Further, nothing contained in this Charter is intended to alter or impair the right of the Members to rely, in discharging their duties and responsibilities, on the records of the Company and on other information presented to the Committee, Board or Company by its officers or employees or by outside experts and advisers such as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

 

Structure and Meetings

 

The Committee shall conduct its business and meetings in accordance with this Charter, the Company’s bylaws and any direction set forth by the Board. The chairperson of the Committee shall be designated by the Board or, in the absence of such a designation, by a majority of the Members. The designated chairperson shall preside at each meeting of the Committee and, in consultation with the other Members, shall set the frequency and length of each meeting and the agenda of items to be addressed at each meeting. In the absence of the designated chairperson at any meeting of the Committee, the Members present at such meeting shall designate a chairperson pro tem to serve in that capacity for the purposes of such meeting (not to include any adjournment thereof) by majority vote. The chairperson (other than a chairperson pro tem) shall ensure that the agenda for each meeting is distributed to each Member in advance of the applicable meeting.

 

The Committee shall meet as often as it determines to be necessary and appropriate, but not less than quarterly each year.

A majority of the appointed Members, but not less than two (2) Members, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Members may participate in a meeting through use of conference telephone or similar communications equipment, so long as all Members participating in such meeting can hear one another, and such participation shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

 

The Committee may meet with any person or entity in executive session as desired by the Committee. The Committee shall meet with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, at such times as the Committee deems appropriate, to review the independent registered public accounting firm’s examination and management report.

 

Unless the Committee by resolution determines otherwise, any action required or permitted to be taken by the Committee may be taken without a meeting if all Members consent thereto in writing or via electronic transmission and the same are filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Committee. The Committee may form and delegate authority to subcommittees when appropriate.

 

Minutes

Duties and Responsibilities

 

The basic responsibility of the members of the Committee is to exercise their business judgment to act in what they reasonably believe to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. In discharging that obligation, members should be entitled to rely on the honesty and integrity of the Company’s senior executives and its outside auditors, attorneys and advisors, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

The Committee shall carry out the duties and responsibilities set forth below. These functions should serve as a guide with the understanding that the Committee may determine to carry out additional functions and adopt additional policies and procedures as may be appropriate in light of changing business, legislative, regulatory, legal, or other conditions. The Committee shall also carry out any other responsibilities and duties delegated to it by the Board of Directors from time to time related to the purposes of the Committee outlined in this Charter.

 

In discharging its oversight role, the Committee is empowered to study or investigate any matter of interest or concern that the Committee deems appropriate and shall have the sole authority, without seeking Board approval, to retain outside counsel or other advisors for this purpose, including the sole authority to approve the fees payable to such counsel or advisors and any other terms of retention.
