The Board has approved in principle revised Articles of<br />
Incorporation that would improve governance of EA by<br />
bringing about changes in the director appointment process<br />
to ensure recruitment and selection of the best directors to<br />
act in the interests of EA and its stakeholders. The Board has<br />
discussed the new governance and accountability framework<br />
with our appointer representatives on a number of occasions<br />
and work continues on moving this initiative forward.<br />

Although not subject to governance rules that apply<br />
to public companies, EA is committed to implementing<br />
corporate governance practices that are in alignment<br />
with practices required of public companies, adapting<br />
them to EA’s status as a non-share corporation.<br />
Under National Policy 58-201 Corporate Governance<br />
Guidelines and the accompanying National Instrument<br />
58-101 Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices<br />
published by the Canadian Securities Administrators,<br />
public companies are required to disclose their corporate<br />
governance practices. Among the disclosure requirements<br />
are the attendance record of each director and the text of<br />
the Board Mandate. The attendance record of each EA<br />
director for all Board and Committee meetings he or she<br />
was scheduled to attend in 2008 and the Board Mandate<br />
follow. Additional documents can be found on EA’s<br />
website at flyeia.com.<br />
