a majority of the members of the Company's Board of Directors and by a majority
of the disinterested members of the Company's Board of Directors, and (ii) be on
terms that are no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from
unaffiliated third parties. In addition, the policy requires that any loans by
the Company to its officers, directors or other affiliates be for bona fide
business purposes only.

services rendered during the year.
