Many of the changes brought about by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the SEC's implementing regulations and the stock exchanges' and Nasdaq's new listing criteria will be in effect for the 2004 annual report and proxy season. Stricter requirements for director independence and heightened standards for board committees, as well as enhanced disclosure requirements for public companies, will be applicable. To prepare our clients and friends for these challenging new requirements, our speakers will present a two-hour seminar designed for executives, board members and in-house counsel at public companies. Topics will include:

Disclosure Issues Affecting Annual Reports

Format of MD&A

Non-GAAP financial measures

Off-balance sheet arrangements

Critical accounting estimates

Contractual obligations disclosure

New Proxy Rules

Nominating committee disclosures

New corporate governance requirements

Direct access for shareholders
