<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>RECORD DATE</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The record date (the &#147;Record Date&#148;) for determining which NAEP Shareholders shall be entitled
to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting is August&nbsp;11, 2008. Only NAEP Shareholders of
record as of the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting, unless
after the Record Date such shareholder of record transfers its shares and the transferee (the
&#147;Transferee&#148;), upon establishing that the Transferee owns such shares, requests in writing at least
10&nbsp;days prior to the Meeting or any adjournments thereof that the Transferee may have his or her
name included on the list of NAEP Shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting, in which case the
Transferee is entitled to vote such shares at the Meeting. Such written request by the Transferee
shall be filed with CIBC Mellon Trust Company at Proxy Dept., CIBC Mellon Trust Company, P.O. Box
721, Agincourt, Ontario M1S 0A1, together with a copy to the Secretary of the Corporation at North
American Energy Partners Inc., - Zone 3, Acheson Industrial Area, 2-53016 Highway 60, Acheson,
Alberta T7X 5A7.
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under normal conditions, confidentiality of voting is maintained by virtue of the fact that
the Corporation&#146;s transfer agent tabulates proxies and votes. However, such confidentiality may be
lost as to any proxy or ballot if a question arises as to its validity or revocation or any other
like matter. Loss of confidentiality may also occur if the Board of Directors decides that
disclosure is in the interest of the Corporation or its shareholders.
</DIV>


<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>APPOINTMENT OF PROXYHOLDERS</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The persons named in the accompanying Proxy as proxyholders are representatives of management
of NAEP. <B>A NAEP Shareholder desiring to appoint some other person (who need not be a shareholder
of NAEP) to represent him or her at the Meeting, may do so either by striking out the printed names
and inserting the desired person&#146;s name in the blank space provided in the Proxy or by completing
another proper proxy and, in either case, delivering the completed proxy to CIBC Mellon Trust
Company at Proxy Dept., CIBC Mellon Trust Company, P.O. Box 721, Agincourt, Ontario M1S 0A1
(facsimile no. (416)&nbsp;368-2502 or toll free in North America only at no. 1-866-781-3111) no later
than 6:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) on September&nbsp;15, 2008 and if the Meeting is adjourned, no later than
24 hours (excluding Saturdays and holidays) prior to the commencement of any adjournment thereof.
A Proxy should be executed by a NAEP Shareholder or its attorney duly authorized in writing or, if
a NAEP Shareholder is a corporation, by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized in writing.
If a proxy is given by joint shareholders, it must be executed by all such joint shareholders.</B>

<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 24pt"><B>VOTING OF PROXIES</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If a Proxy is completed, signed and delivered to the Corporation in the manner specified
above, the persons named as proxyholders therein shall vote or withhold from voting the shares in
respect of which they are appointed as proxyholders at the Meeting, in accordance with the
instructions of the NAEP Shareholder appointing them, on any show of hands or any ballot that may
be called for and, if the NAEP Shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be
acted upon at the Meeting, the persons appointed as proxyholders shall vote in accordance with the
specification so made. <B>In the absence of such specification, or if the specification is not
certain, the shares represented by such Proxy will be voted in favour of the matters to be acted
upon as specified in the Notice of Meeting.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>A Proxy confers discretionary authority upon the persons named therein with respect to all
other matters which may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournments thereof. As of the
date of this Information Circular, the Board of Directors of the Corporation knows of no such
amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting, other than matters referred to
in the Notice of Meeting. However, if other matters should properly come before the Meeting, the
Proxy will be voted on such matters in accordance with the best judgment of the person or persons
voting such Proxy.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>REVOCABILITY OF PROXY</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any NAEP Shareholder returning an enclosed Proxy may revoke the same at any time insofar as it
has not been exercised. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a Proxy
may be revoked by instrument in writing executed by the NAEP Shareholder or by his or her attorney
authorized in writing or, if the NAEP Shareholder is a corporation, by an officer or attorney
thereof duly authorized, and deposited at the registered office of the Corporation to the attention
of Kevin Rowand, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the
Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, or with the chairperson of the Meeting, prior to the
commencement of the Meeting. A NAEP Shareholder attending the Meeting has the right to vote in
person and, if he or she does so, his or her proxy is nullified with respect to the matters such
person votes upon and any subsequent matters thereafter to be voted upon at the Meeting or any
adjournment thereof.

<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>ADVICE TO BENEFICIAL HOLDERS OF COMMON SHARES</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many NAEP
Shareholders, as a substantial number of NAEP Shareholders do not hold common shares of the
Corporation (&#147;NAEP Common Shares&#148;) in their own name, and thus are considered non-registered
shareholders. </B>NAEP Shareholders who do not hold their NAEP Common Shares in their own name
(&#147;Beneficial Shareholders&#148;) should note that only Proxies deposited by NAEP Shareholders whose
names appear on the records of the Corporation as the registered holders of NAEP Common Shares can
be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If NAEP Common Shares are listed in an account
statement provided to a NAEP Shareholder by a broker, then, in almost all cases, those NAEP Common
Shares will not be registered in the NAEP Shareholder&#146;s name on the records of the Corporation.
Such NAEP Common Shares will more likely be registered under the name of the NAEP Shareholder&#146;s
broker or an agent of that broker

Intermediary can only be voted by the Intermediary (for, withheld or against resolutions) upon the
instructions of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, Intermediaries are
prohibited from voting NAEP Common Shares.
</DIV>

Common Shares are communicated in a timely manner and in accordance with the instructions provided
by their Intermediary. </B>Applicable regulatory rules require Intermediaries to seek voting
instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders&#146; meetings. <B>Every Intermediary
has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients, which should be
carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their NAEP Common Shares are
voted at the Meeting.</B>

<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Although a Beneficial Shareholder may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the
purposes of voting NAEP Common Shares registered in the name of their Intermediary, a Beneficial
Shareholder may attend at the Meeting as proxyholder for the Intermediary and vote the NAEP Common
Shares in that capacity. <B>Beneficial Shareholders who wish to attend the Meeting and indirectly
vote their NAEP Common Shares as a proxyholder, should enter their own names in the blank space on
the form of proxy provided to them by their Intermediary and timely return the same to their
Intermediary in accordance with the instructions provided by their Intermediary, well in advance of
the Meeting.</B>

</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The solicitation of proxies by the Corporation is not subject to the requirements of Section
14(a) of the United States (&#147;US&#148;) Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;US Exchange
Act&#148;), by virtue of an exemption applicable to proxy solicitations by &#147;foreign private issuers&#148; as
defined in Rule&nbsp;3b-4 under the US Exchange Act. Accordingly, this Information Circular has been
prepared in accordance with the applicable disclosure requirements in Canada. Residents of the
United States should be aware that such requirements may be different than those of the United
States applicable to proxy statements under the US Exchange Act.

and an unlimited number of non-voting NAEP Common Shares. As at August&nbsp;11, 2008, there were a
total of 36,038,476 NAEP Common Shares outstanding. Each NAEP Common Share entitles the holder
thereof to one vote in respect of each of the matters to be voted upon at the Meeting. For a list
of persons or corporations who beneficially owns or controls or directs, directly or indirectly,
securities carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to the NAEP Common Shares, please

of shareholders is adjourned by one or more adjournments for an aggregate of less than 30&nbsp;days it
is not necessary to give notice of the adjourned meeting other than by announcement at the time of
an adjournment. If a meeting of NAEP Shareholders is adjourned by one or more adjournments for an
aggregate of more than 29&nbsp;days and not more than 90&nbsp;days, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be
given as for an original meeting but the management of the Corporation shall not be required to
send a form of proxy in the form prescribed by applicable law to each NAEP Shareholder who is
entitled to receive notice of the meeting. Those shareholders present at any duly adjourned meeting
shall constitute a quorum.

<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Board of Directors has approved the Corporation&#146;s Amended and Restated 2004 Share Option
Plan (the &#147;Share Option Plan&#148;). The Share Option Plan is part of the Corporation&#146;s Long Term
Incentive Plan. The Share Option Plan was approved by the Corporation&#146;s shareholders on November
3, 2006 and became effective on November&nbsp;28, 2006. The Share Option Plan is administered by the
Compensation Committee. Option grants under the Share Option Plan may be made to the Corporation&#146;s
directors, officers, employees and consultants selected by the Compensation Committee. The Share
Option Plan provides for the discretionary grant of options to purchase NAEP Common Shares. Options
granted under the Share Option Plan are evidenced by an agreement, specifying the vesting, exercise
price and expiration of such options, which terms are determined for each optionee by the
Compensation Committee. Options to be granted under the Share Option Plan will have an exercise
price of not less than the volume weighted average trading price of the NAEP Common Shares on the
Toronto Stock Exchange or the New York Stock Exchange at the time of grant. The Share Option Plan
provides that up to 10% of the Corporation&#146;s issued and outstanding NAEP Common Shares from time to
time may be reserved for issuance or issued from treasury and also provides that the maximum number
of NAEP Common Shares issuable to insiders under the Share Option Plan (and any other security
based compensation arrangements of the Corporation) is 10% of the Corporation&#146;s issued and
outstanding NAEP Common Shares. In the event of certain change of control events as defined in the
Share Option Plan, all outstanding options will become immediately vested and exercisable.
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Share Option Plan provides that each option includes a cashless exercise alternative which
provides a holder of an option with the right to elect to receive cash in lieu of purchasing the
number of shares under the option. Notwithstanding such right, the Share Option Plan provides that
the Corporation may elect, at its sole discretion, to net settle the option with stock. As of
March&nbsp;31, 2008 there were 2,036,364 NAEP Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding
options, of which 804,192 of such options were vested.
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Share Option Plan provides that, in the event of the termination (with or without cause)
or retirement of an optionee, the options held by an optionee cease to be exercisable 30&nbsp;days after
the termination or retirement date, subject to adjustment by the Compensation

Share Option Plan to facilitate the purchase of securities under the Share Option Plan. Options
granted under the Share Option Plan are not transferable by an optionee, except by an optionee&#146;s

are exercisable by only him or her (or, in the case of the optionee&#146;s disability, by his or her
legal representative(s), if applicable). If an optionee dies, the options held by such optionee
may be exercised by the legal representative of the deceased optionee. Such options cease to be
exercisable on such date that is the earlier of: (a)&nbsp;365&nbsp;days after the optionee&#146;s death, and (b)
the expiry date set out in the deceased optionee&#146;s option agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Share Option Plan allows the expiry date to be extended by determination of the
Compensation Committee or as permitted under the option agreement. If the expiry date falls within
or immediately after a blackout period or a lock-up period, the expiry date would be automatically
extended for five business days after the blackout period or lock-up period.

<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Share Option Plan provides that subject to receipt of shareholder and regulatory approval,
the Board of Directors may make certain specified amendments to the Share Option Plan, including
(i)&nbsp;any amendment to the number of securities issuable under the Share Option Plan, (ii)&nbsp;any
changes in the participants in the plan that have the potential of broadening or increasing insider
participation, (iii)&nbsp;the introduction of, or amendments to, any form of financial assistance and
(iv)&nbsp;any other amendments that may lead to significant or unreasonable dilution in the
Corporation&#146;s outstanding securities or may provide additional benefits to eligible participants,
especially to participants who are insiders. The Share Option Plan authorizes the Board of
Directors to make other amendments to the plan, subject only to regulatory approval (i.e. without
shareholder approval, unless specifically required by applicable law), including (i)&nbsp;amendments of
a &#147;housekeeping&#148; nature (i.e. amendments for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, error or omission
in the Share Option Plan, or to comply with applicable law or the requirements of any stock
exchange on which the NAEP Common Shares are listed), (ii)&nbsp;changes any change to the vesting
provisions, (iii)&nbsp;any changes in the termination provisions of an option or of the Share Option
Plan which does which does not entail an extension beyond the original expiry date, (iv)&nbsp;a
discontinuance of the Share Option Plan and (v)&nbsp;the addition of provisions relating to phantom
share units, such as restricted share units and deferred share units, which result in participants
receiving cash payments, and the terms governing such features.

approval, employees (the &#147;Participants&#148;) for participation in the Corporation&#146;s PSU Plan. Under
the PSU Plan the Corporation credits a Performance Share Unit (a &#147;PSU&#148;), being a right granted to a
Participant to receive a cash payment equivalent to the fair market value of a NAEP Common Share,
or at the discretion of the Corporation, in a number of NAEP Common Shares purchased on the open
market. After the third fiscal year-end following the date of the grant of the PSUs (the &#147;Maturity
Date&#148;), the Compensation Committee will assess the Participant against the performance criteria
established as part of the grant and determine the number of such PSUs that have vested. The cash
payment or delivery of NAEP Common Shares is then based on these vested PSUs.

<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If any dividends are paid on the NAEP Common Shares, additional PSUs will be credited to the
Participant to reflect such dividends. The PSU Plan provides that, in the event of the termination
(with or without cause), all PSUs that are not vested are immediately forfeited. In the event of
retirement or disability of a Participant, all vested PSUs will be redeemed within 30&nbsp;days of the
Maturity Date. Any PSUs which have not completed their prescribed term shall continue to be
eligible to become vested PSUs, subject to the performance criteria, as if the Participant was
still employed by the Corporation. On the death of a Participant, all granted PSUs will vest and
will be redeemed within 90&nbsp;days of the date of the Participant&#146;s death. Rights respecting PSUs are
not transferable or assignable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The
Compensation Committee, on recommendation to and approval of the Board of Directors, may amend,
suspend or terminate the PSU Plan or any portion thereof at any time. However, no amendment,
suspension or termination may materially adversely affect any PSUs, or any rights pursuant thereto,
granted previously to any Participant without the consent of that Participant.

<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Compensation Committee recognizes the highly competitive market for talented executives in
Alberta as a result of the continued economic prosperity and growth of the Alberta economy,
particularly in the energy sector. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee has recommended a
market competitive total executive compensation package consisting of base salary with annual
increases based on performance, short-term bonus with a target payout of 100% of base salary based
on actual results compared to the Corporation&#146;s planned Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the
credit agreement)<SUP style="font-size: 85%; vertical-align: text-top"><FONT style="font-family: Symbol">&#168;</FONT></SUP> performance and specific divisional and individual metrics,
long-term incentives consisting of stock option grants and performance share units (&#147;PSUs&#148;) and a
perquisite program providing a vehicle allowance and club membership or equivalent consideration.
The Compensation Committee is committed to ensuring that the Corporation&#146;s compensation plans are
market competitive and, as such, commissioned a review by independent specialized compensation
consultants, Hewitt Associates and Wynford Group, to evaluate the Corporation&#146;s total compensation
against that of leading corporations within Alberta in the industries in which the Corporation
operates (the &#147;Comparator Group&#148;). With respect to long-term incentive plans for executives
(namely, the Share Option Plan and the PSU Plan) and compensation for directors (including the DSU
Plan), the Committee also utilizes specialized compensation consulting services provided by Hewitt
Associates to assist with the structure and design of these plans.
</DIV>

<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Performance &#038; Accountability</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Compensation Committee believes that executive compensation should be correlated to
performance, as the financial vitality of the business is dependent upon the results achieved by
the executives, the key decision-makers of the Corporation. Thus, the annual Management Incentive
Plan (the &#147;MIP&#148;), which is discussed further below, was introduced in 2006 with the key underlying
principle of ensuring that executives are held accountable to stakeholders by measuring the
performance of the Corporation against the Corporation&#146;s Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the
credit agreement)<SUP style="font-size: 85%; vertical-align: text-top"><FONT style="font-family: Symbol">&#168;</FONT></SUP> forecast in the approved annual budget.

continued access to capital on favourable terms. Accordingly the MIP was designed to ensure that
the continued profitability of the Corporation results in increased financial reward for
shareholders and executives alike. Executives are rewarded through the MIP based on three
criteria: (i)&nbsp;organizational performance; (ii)&nbsp;divisional performance; and (iii)&nbsp;individual
performance. The Chief Executive Officer is rewarded through the MIP based on two criteria: (i)
organizational performance and (ii)&nbsp;individual performance. This approach ensures that the role of
the individual within the team is appropriately recognized. The MIP is a key mechanism utilized in
realizing the compensation principles, particularly the latter two. The target MIP remuneration
structure for fiscal 2008 is set out below and remains unchanged for fiscal 2009 (based on the
actual performance of the Corporation, the percentage attributable to the Corporation&#146;s performance
may be higher and consequently the actual proportion of salary paid may be higher than 100%):

effective January&nbsp;1, 2008 guidelines for the ownership by the directors of the Corporation of
equity in the Corporation (the &#147;Share Ownership Guidelines&#148;). The Share Ownership Guidelines
require the Chair of the Board of Directors to own $400,000 of equity in the Corporation and the
remaining directors to own $250,000 of equity in the Corporation, in each case represented by NAEP

the implementation of the Share Ownership Guidelines and the initial appointment or election as a
director. The achievement of the share ownership threshold is facilitated by the requirement for
the directors to receive 50% of their Annual Fixed Remuneration in the form of DSUs. Once the
share ownership threshold is achieved, the number of NAEP Common Shares and DSUs representing the
compliance level must be held for at least 30&nbsp;days to qualify. Thereafter that number of NAEP

</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
National Policy 58-201 &#150; Corporate Governance Guidelines of the Canadian Securities
Administrators recommends that boards of directors of reporting issuers be composed of a majority
of independent directors. With eight of the nine directors proposed to be nominated considered
independent, the Board of Directors is composed of a majority of independent directors. The
Chairman of the Board, Mr.&nbsp;McIntosh, is an independent director. Rod Ruston is considered to have
a material relation with the Corporation by virtue of his executive officer position with the
Corporation and is therefore not independent. Although Messrs Brokaw, Hawkins, Oehmig and Turner
have relationships with shareholders of the Corporation and such shareholders provide consulting
services to the Corporation, the shareholders do not receive any payments in relation to such
consulting services but have an interest in providing such services since they have an investment
in the Corporation. Messrs Brokaw, Hawkins, Oehmig and Turner do not in their individual
capacities provide any consulting services to the Corporation, for a fee or otherwise. In
addition, in the facts and circumstances applicable to these individuals, none of them are
affiliated entities of the Corporation. The Board of Directors has determined that each of the
directors, other than Rod Ruston, is an independent director within the meaning of the rules of the
New York Stock Exchange applicable to U.S. domestic listed companies and applicable Canadian
securities laws.
</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In order to facilitate open and candid discussion among the Corporation&#146;s independent
directors, the board holds in-camera sessions which exclude the non-independent director, Rod
Ruston. In-camera meetings are held whenever necessary as part of the regularly scheduled board
meetings. In fiscal 2008 five of the nine board meetings included such in-camera sessions, and
except for the in-camera sessions, there were no separate meetings of independent board members
that took place.

by all of the Corporation&#146;s personnel. A copy of the Code may be obtained at the Corporation&#146;s

provide a means of reporting non-compliance with the Code and (ii)&nbsp;to comply with the <I>Sarbanes
Oxley Act </I>and securities regulations. Under the Reporting Policy, the Corporation&#146;s personnel are
required to report any conduct which they believe, in good faith, to be a violation or apparent
violation of the Code. The Corporation keeps the identity of the person making the report for
every reported violation confidential, except as otherwise required by law, and a copy of all
reported violations are confidential until action is taken to correct the violation, at which time
the violation may become known (but not the identity of the individual filing the report). The
Policy further provides that there is not to be any retaliation against the reporter.

a material interest by requiring that all personnel avoid any activity which creates or gives the
appearance of a conflict of interest between an individual&#146;s personal interests and the
Corporation&#146;s interests. Specifically, the Code provides that, unless a waiver is granted, no
personnel shall (i)&nbsp;seek or accept any personal loan or guarantee of any obligation or services
from any outside business, (ii)&nbsp;act as a consultant or employee of or otherwise operate an outside
business if the demands of the outside business would interfere with the employee&#146;s
