Amended by the Committee on April 6, 2005
Approved by the Board on April 27, 2005

1. MEMBERSHIP:

The Compensation Committee (the "Committee") shall consist of not less than three members of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"). The Committee shall be composed entirely of "independent directors," as required by New York Stock Exchange listing standards and any other legal requirement as shall be in effect. Committee members shall not be employees or former employees of the Company, and they shall be free of any relationship that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with their individual exercise of independent judgment. The Board shall, in the exercise of its business judgment, determine the independence of directors for this purpose. Members of the Committee shall also qualify as "non-employee directors," within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and "outside directors" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. In selecting the members of the Committee, the Board shall consider the following qualifications for membership: prior service on the Committee, or a compensation committee of another public company, or service with a public company which involved executive compensation matters.

The members of the Committee shall be appointed annually by the Board, upon recommendation by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, at the organizational meeting of the Board following the annual meeting of shareholders. Vacancies on the Committee shall be filled by the Board upon recommendation by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Chairperson of the Committee shall likewise be appointed annually by the Board upon recommendation by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and shall be responsible for leadership of the Committee, including overseeing meeting agendas, presiding over meetings, orienting new members to the Committee, and reporting to the Board. If the appointed Chairperson is not present at a Committee meeting, the members of the Committee present shall designate a Chairperson to lead the meeting. The Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), or his/her delegate, will be the management liaison to the Committee.

2. PURPOSE:

The primary functions of the Committee are to discharge the Board of Directors' responsibilities relating to compensation of the Company's executives, and to produce an annual report on executive compensation for inclusion in the Company's proxy statement, in accordance with applicable rules and regulations.

3. MEETINGS:

The Committee shall meet at such times in person or telephonically as it determines to be necessary or appropriate, but not less than once a year, and the Committee Chairperson shall report to the Board at the next meeting of the Board following each such Committee meeting, or as reasonably practicable.

The Company's Corporate Secretary or Assistant Secretary and a management liaison to the Committee shall be present at all meetings. Any background materials, together with the agenda, shall be distributed to the Committee members, and the CEO, by the Corporate Secretary in advance of the meeting, and the Corporate Secretary shall maintain one set of all Committee minutes.

The Committee may adopt such rules and procedures for the conduct of its affairs, as it deems necessary or appropriate if not inconsistent with this Charter and the Company's By-Laws.

A majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum and the acts of a majority of the members present and voting at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the acts of the Committee. The Committee may request that any directors, officers, or employees of the Company, or other persons, whose advice or consultation is sought by the Committee, attend any meeting of the Committee to provide such pertinent information as the Committee requests. The Committee may form subcommittees and delegate authority to them, as it deems appropriate.

The Committee shall meet in executive session without the presence of any members of management as often as it deems appropriate.

Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Committee may be taken without a meeting if, prior or subsequent to the action, a consent or consents thereto by all members of the Committee is filed with the Secretary of the Company.

¹ As used herein, the term "executives" shall consist of "officers" as defined by Rule 16a-1(f) of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act"); "executive officers" as defined in Rule 3b-7 of the Act; and the members of the Senior Executive Team ("SET"), as established from time to time by the CEO.
