    This Proxy Statement is being mailed on or about April&#160;1,
    2009, to the shareholders of Olympic Steel, Inc., which is
    referred to as the Company, in connection with the solicitation
    by the Board of Directors of the enclosed form of proxy for the
    2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, or the Annual Meeting, to
    be held on April&#160;29, 2009, at the offices of Jones Day at
    1420 Peachtree St. N.E., Suite&#160;800, Atlanta, Georgia 30309,
    at 10:00&#160;a.m.&#160;Pursuant to the Title&#160;XVII,
    Chapter&#160;1701 of the Ohio Revised Code, any shareholder
    signing and returning the enclosed proxy has the power to revoke
    it by giving notice of such revocation to the Company in writing
    or in the open meeting before any vote with respect to the
    matters set forth therein is taken. The representation in person
    or by proxy of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of
    the common stock of the Company, which we refer to as the Common
    Stock, entitled to vote is necessary to provide a quorum at the
    Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted
    in determining whether a quorum has been achieved.

    The election of directors requires approval by a plurality of
    the votes cast. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no
    effect in determining the outcome of the vote on the election of
    directors. Although the Company&#146;s independent auditors may
    be selected by the Audit and Compliance Committee of the Board
    of Directors without shareholder approval, the Audit and
    Compliance Committee will consider the affirmative vote of a
    majority of the shares of Common Stock having voting power
    present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting to be a
    ratification by the shareholders of the selection of
    PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, or PwC, as the Company&#146;s
    independent auditors for the year ending December&#160;31, 2009.
    As a result, abstentions will have the same effect as a vote
    cast against the proposal, but broker non-voters will have no
    effect on the outcome of this proposal.

    The Company will bear the expense of preparing, printing and
    mailing this Proxy Statement. Although the Company has not
    retained a proxy solicitor to aid in the solicitation of
    proxies, it may do so in the future if the need arises, and does
    not believe that the cost of any such proxy solicitor will be
    material. In addition to solicitation of proxies by mail,
    certain directors, officers and other employees of the Company,

    Shareholder ratification of the selection of PwC as the

    selection of PwC to the shareholders for ratification. If the
    shareholders do not ratify the selection, the Audit and
    Compliance Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain
    the firm. In such event, the Audit and Compliance Committee may
    retain PwC, notwithstanding the fact that the shareholders did
    not ratify the selection, or select another nationally
    recognized accounting firm without resubmitting the matter to
    the shareholders. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit

    select a different nationally recognized accounting firm at any
    time during the year if it determines that such a change would
    be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.
    Representatives of PwC are expected to be present at the Annual

    they desire to do so, and will be available to respond to

    All of the current Directors attended at least seventy-five
    percent of the Board and applicable Board committee meetings
    held during 2008. In addition to holding regular Board committee
    meetings, the Board members and committee members also reviewed

    other apart from the meetings. The Board determines the
    independence of each Director and each Director-nominee in
    accordance with the independence standards set forth in the
    listing requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Board has
    determined that Messrs.&#160;Della Ratta, Elrad, Forman,
    Goldstein and Meathe are independent Directors, as defined in
    the Nasdaq Stock Market listing requirements. The Board has also
    determined that Mr.&#160;Anton, the Director-Nominee up for

    standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market.

    compiled compensation data for a group of 21 steel and
    steel-related companies with annual revenues ranging from about
    $380&#160;million to $3&#160;billion. This range of revenues was
    chosen because it approximates our annual revenue range during
    the most recent years. The 2008 peer group was comprised of the
    following steel-related companies:

    Our executive compensation program consists of three primary
    components: base salary, annual cash incentive payouts and
    long-term compensation in the form of stock options and other
    equity-based awards. We also provide our executives with the
    opportunity to participate in a 401(k) retirement and
    profit-sharing plan, and a non-qualified defined contribution
    plan. Certain health, disability and life insurance and other
    customary fringe benefits also are available to our named
    executive officers, who participate in these fringe benefits on
    the same basis as our other employees. Each named executive
    officer also has entered into an agreement with us that provides
    for certain benefits upon a change in control.

    In determining the relative allocation of these elements of
    compensation, the Compensation Committee seeks to provide an
    amount of long-term compensation, both in the form of equity and
    cash incentives, that is sufficient to align the interests of
    our executives with those of our shareholders, while also
    providing adequate short-term compensation, primarily in the
    form of cash, to attract and retain talented executives. The
    Compensation Committee takes into account various qualitative
    and quantitative indicators of Company and individual
    performance in determining the level and composition of
    compensation for our Chief Executive Officer and other named
    executive officers. While the Compensation Committee considers
    our financial and operating performance, the Compensation
    Committee generally does not apply any specific quantitative
    formula in making base salary decisions, except with respect to
    the cash incentive award opportunities, as described below. The
    Compensation Committee also appreciates the importance of
    achievements that may be difficult to quantify&#160;&#151; such
    as individual performance&#160;&#151; and, accordingly,
    recognizes qualitative factors that include successful
    supervision of major corporate projects and demonstrated

    companies outside of the steel industry, and obtains the
    recommendations of Towers Perrin and management in order to
    determine the range of the base salaries. As mentioned above,

    increased for 2008 by five percent to reflect a cost of living

    salaries of each of our named executive officers, as established
    for 2008, are reasonable when measured against the range of base
    salaries offered by other companies in the peer group reviewed
    by the Compensation Committee and in light of our performance in

    Under our Senior Management Compensation Program, our named
    executive officers receive a cash incentive award based on our
    pre-tax income results for the most recently completed fiscal
    year. Cash incentive award amounts earned based on pre-tax
    income results may then either be increased or reduced based on
    our annual performance in certain key metrics established in
    advance by the Compensation Committee, which key metrics change
    from year to year and include safety, inventory turnover,
    expense control, reduction of aged inventory, days sales
    outstanding and tonnage growth. In this way, award amounts under
    the Senior Management Compensation Program are directly tied to
    our performance, so that the participants have the opportunity
    to earn significant cash incentive awards for years in which we
    perform well, but also bear the risk of earning little or no
    cash incentive compensation for years in which we perform below

    As in past years, in 2008, the Compensation Committee granted an

    pre-tax income results were then either increased or reduced
    based on our performance in other key metrics, which for 2008
    were safety, expense control and aged inventory reduction. In
    2008, we achieved some of our key metrics, which resulted in an
    increased cash incentive payout amount for each named executive
    officer. For 2008, Messrs.&#160;Siegal, Wolfort and Marabito
    each earned an annual cash incentive payout of $1,827,616, which
    amount was increased by approximately $206,000 from the amount
    earned, and Mr.&#160;Manson and Ms.&#160;Potash each earned an
    annual cash incentive payout of $609,205, which amount was
    increased by approximately $69,000 from the amount earned. Due
    to the difficult economic conditions of late 2008 and early
    2009, Messrs.&#160;Siegal, Wolfort, Marabito and Manson and
    Ms.&#160;Potash voluntarily agreed to reduce their 2008
    incentives by an amount equal to 10% of their respective 2008
    base salaries. The voluntary reduction resulted in lower 2008
    incentives of $63,525, $57,750, $34,125, $18,375 and $18,375,
    respectively. The final 2008 incentives, after the voluntary
    reduction, were $1,764,091, $1,769,866, $1,793,491, $590,830 and
    $590,830 respectively. These annual cash incentive payout
    amounts are disclosed in the 2008 Summary Compensation Table.
    Annual cash incentive payout amounts will be paid to each
    executive in three installments over a two-year period in
    accordance with the terms of our Senior Management Compensation
    Program, which is further described under the 2008 Grants of
    Plan-Based Awards Table below.

    <I>Long-Term Equity-Based Compensation.</I>&#160;&#160;The
    Compensation Committee believes that equity-based compensation
    awards are an appropriate means of aligning the interests of our
    executives with those of our shareholders by rewarding our
    executives based on increases in the prices of our Common Stock.
    Like base salary and the annual cash incentive payments, award
    levels are set with regard to competitive considerations, and
    each individual&#146;s actual award is based upon the
    individual&#146;s job responsibilities, performance, potential
    for increased responsibility and contributions, leadership
    ability and commitment to our strategic efforts. The timing and
    amount of previous awards to, and held by, the executive is
    reviewed, but is only one factor considered by the Compensation
    Committee in determining the size of any equity-based award
    grants.

    Equity-based compensation awards are granted under the Olympic
    Steel, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan, which is referred to as the

    On January&#160;2, 2008, the Compensation Committee granted
    performance-earned restricted stock units for 34,379&#160;shares
    of Common Stock to 21 members of our senior management under the
    Incentive Plan. Our named executive officers can earn these
    restricted stock units for the achievement of specific earnings
    before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or
    EBITDA, and return on invested capital targets for a
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">36-month</FONT>
    period beginning January&#160;1, 2008 and ending
    December&#160;31, 2010. The Compensation Committee chose EBITDA
    as the first performance metric for this equity award because it
    believes EBITDA is a fair measure of our growth and
    profitability during the performance period, and is a fairly
    universal basis for valuing companies across or among
    industries. The Compensation Committee chose return on invested
    capital as the second performance metric in order to determine
    whether any growth and profitability demonstrated by increased
    EBITDA is achieved through an efficient use of capital. During
    this period, the two separate financial measures are weighted
    equally. No restricted stock units will be earned unless a
    threshold EBITDA amount is met, and then payouts for each
    financial measure are also subject to threshold achievement. The
    performance-earned restricted stock units are convertible into
    shares of Common Stock in 2011.

    For this award, Messrs.&#160;Siegal, Marabito and Wolfort were
    each granted a target performance-earned restricted stock units
    opportunity equal to 35% of his base salary, and Ms.&#160;Potash
    and Mr.&#160;Manson were each granted a target
    performance-earned restricted stock units opportunity equal to
    25% of his or her base salary. Each of these award opportunities
    was then equally divided between achievement of the EBITDA and
    return on invested capital financial measures (17.5% each for
    Messrs.&#160;Siegal, Marabito and Wolfort, and 12.5% each for
    Ms.&#160;Potash and Mr.&#160;Manson). Based on actual
    performance, each named executive officer can earn up to 150%,
    or as little as 0%, of his or her total award opportunity.

    established threshold, target and maximum performance goals to

    severance benefits as summarized below and further described
    elsewhere in this Proxy Statement. The Compensation Committee
    believes these benefits are vital to the attraction and
    retention of qualified executives. These benefits provide the
    executives with the opportunity to address long-term financial
    planning with a greater degree of certainty, and also address
    our interest in continuing to motivate executives in the event
    of corporate instability, such as a change of control or
    unforeseen industry changes.

    We provide Messrs.&#160;Siegal, Wolfort and Marabito, as our
    most valuable executives, with the opportunity to participate in
    our Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, which is a
    non-qualified defined contribution savings plan. Under the
    Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, we provide an annual
    contribution for each participating executive, a portion of
    which is based only on the participant&#146;s continued service
    with us, and an additional amount that is dependent on our
    return on invested capital for the applicable year. Each of
    these contribution components is referenced as a specified
    percentage of the executive&#146;s base salary and cash
    incentive award amount for the year. Effective January&#160;1,
    2008, Ms.&#160;Potash also participates in our Supplemental
    Executive Retirement Plan. We provide an annual contribution for
    Ms.&#160;Potash based on her continued service with us. She does
    not receive an additional contribution based on our return on
    invested capital. In addition, each of the members of our senior
    management group, including our named executive officers, also
    may participate in our Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, a
    non-qualified voluntary contributory savings plan under which a
    participant may defer all or any portion of his annual incentive
    award and up to 90% of his base salary into one or more
    investment options that are the same as those available to all
    of our employees who participate under our 401(k) plan. The
    Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and the Executive
    Deferred Compensation Plan are further described below under the
    2008 Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Table.

    To ensure the continuity of corporate management and the
    continued dedication of key executives during any period of
    uncertainty caused by a possible change in control, we entered
    into management retention agreements with each of our named
    executive officers, which agreements provide for the payment and
    provision of certain benefits if there is a change of control of
    the Company and a termination of the executive&#146;s employment
    with the surviving entity within a certain period after the
    change in control. We also have entered into employment
    agreements with Messrs.&#160;Siegal, Wolfort and Marabito that
    provide for the payment of certain severance benefits upon
    termination of employment other than after a change in control
    of the Company. These agreements help ensure that our
    executive&#146;s interests remain aligned with those of our
    shareholders during any time when an executive&#146;s continued
    employment may be in jeopardy. They also provide some level of
    income continuity should an executive&#146;s employment be
    terminated without cause. These agreements are further described
    under Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control
    below.

    <I>Effect of Section&#160;162(m) of the Internal Revenue
    Code.</I>&#160;&#160;Section&#160;162(m) of the Internal Revenue
    Code denies a publicly held corporation a federal income tax
    deduction for compensation in excess of $1&#160;million in a
    taxable year paid to each of its chief executive officer and the
    four other most highly compensated executive officers. Certain
    &#147;performance-based&#148; compensation, such as stock
    options awarded at fair market value, is not subject to the
    limitation on deductibility provided that certain shareholder
    approval and independent director requirements are met. To the
    extent consistent with our compensation policies and the
    Compensation Committee&#146;s assessment of the interests of
    shareholders, we seek to design our executive compensation
    programs to preserve our ability to deduct compensation paid to
    executives under these programs. However, the Compensation
    Committee also weighs the burdens of such compliance against the
    benefits to be obtained by us and may pay compensation that is
    not deductible or fully deductible if it determines that such
    payments are in our best interests. For example, bonuses paid
    under our Senior Management Compensation Program historically
    were not intended to satisfy the requirements for the
    performance-based compensation exemption from
    Section&#160;162(m). The Compensation Committee has determined,
    however, that, to the extent practicable in view of its
    compensation philosophy, it will seek to structure our cash
    bonuses to satisfy the requirements for the performance-based
    exemption from Section&#160;162(m). Therefore, we have adopted
    the Incentive Plan pursuant to shareholder approval and intend
    to award future cash bonuses under the plan as we believe that
    such bonuses paid to executives in accordance with the plan will
    qualify for the exemption for performance-based compensation.

    <I>Section&#160;409A of the Internal Revenue
    Code.</I>&#160;&#160;Section&#160;409A of the Internal Revenue
    Code generally provides that arrangements involving the deferral
    of compensation that do not comply in form and operation with
    Section&#160;409A or are not exempt from Section&#160;409A are
    subject to increased tax, penalties and interest. If a deferred
    compensation arrangement does not comply with, or is not exempt
    from, Section&#160;409A, employees may be subject to accelerated
    or additional tax, or interest or penalties, with respect to the
    compensation. The Compensation Committee believes that deferred
    compensation arrangements that do not comply with
    Section&#160;409A would be of significantly diminished value to
    our executives. Accordingly, we intend to design our future
    deferred compensation arrangements, and have

    We adopted the Olympic Steel, Inc. Stock Option Plan, which we
    refer to as the Stock Option Plan, effective January&#160;6,
    1994. It expired in January 2009, though options outstanding
    under our Stock Option Plan upon its expiration will remain in
    effect until their respective termination dates. We authorized
    an aggregate of 1,300,000&#160;shares of our Common Stock for
    issuance under the Stock Option Plan, none of which currently
    remains available for issuance of awards. Employees,
    non-employee directors and independent consultants were eligible
    to receive stock options under the Stock Option Plan. As of
    March&#160;1, 2009, 18&#160;employees and outside directors had
    outstanding options exercisable under the Stock Option Plan. In
    2007, we granted options for the final 24,170&#160;shares of
    Common Stock under the Stock Option Plan.

    The exercise price for stock options issued under the Stock
    Option Plan was established as the fair market value of a share
    of Common Stock on the date of grant. For the 2007 grants, the
    price used was the closing price of shares on The Nasdaq Global
    Market on the date of grant. Stock options became exercisable in
    accordance with the terms established by our Compensation
    Committee and expire ten years from the date of grant.
    Previously granted stock options have been issued with vesting
    schedules ranging from six months to three years. To the extent
    possible, we issue shares of our treasury stock to option
    holders in satisfaction of shares issuable upon the exercise of
    stock options. Stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan
    generally terminate in the event of termination of employment or
    services. However, under certain circumstances, options may be
    exercised

    The Incentive Plan provides us with the authorization to grant
    stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares,
    restricted share units, performance shares and other stock- and
    cash-based awards to our employees, directors and consultants.
    Under the Incentive Plan, 500,000&#160;shares of our Common
    Stock are available for equity grants.

    <I>Stock Options.</I>&#160;&#160;If an award under the Incentive
    Plan is made in the form of stock options, the price of the
    option cannot be less than the fair market value of the
    underlying shares on the date of grant. Unless the Compensation
    Committee determines otherwise, fair market value for all
    purposes under the Incentive Plan is the last closing price of a
    share of our Common Stock as reported on The Nasdaq Global
    Select Market, or, if applicable, on another national securities
    exchange on which the Common Stock is principally traded, on the
    date for which the determination of fair market value is made,
    or, if there are no sales of Common Stock on such date, then on
    the most recent immediately preceding date on which there were
    any sales of Common Stock on such principal trading exchange.
    The term of stock options cannot exceed ten years. The
    Compensation Committee is entitled to set all conditions in
    connection with a participant&#146;s right to exercise an award
    and may impose such conditions as it sees fit. No participant
    may be awarded incentive stock options that are first
    exercisable during any calendar year which involve shares having
    a fair market value, determined at the time of grant, in excess
    of $100,000. Options are settled in shares.

    <I>Stock Appreciation Rights.</I>&#160;&#160;Awards under the
    Incentive Plan may take the form of stock appreciation rights,
    which allow the holder to realize the value of the difference
    between the market price of our Common Stock at the time that
    the rights are granted and the market value of that stock when
    the rights are exercised. The term of stock appreciation rights
    cannot exceed ten years. If the value of the stock has not
    increased during that time, the rights will have no value. Stock
    appreciation rights may be settled in cash, shares or a
    combination of cash and shares, as determined by the
    Compensation Committee and provided in the applicable award
    agreement.

    <I>Restricted Share and Restricted Share
    Units.</I>&#160;&#160;Awards under the Incentive Plan may take
    the form of restricted shares and restricted share units, which
    involve the granting of shares to participants subject to
    restrictions on transferability and any other restrictions the
    Compensation Committee may impose. The restrictions lapse if
    either the holder remains employed by us for a period of time
    established by the Compensation Committee under the applicable
    award agreement or satisfies other restrictions, including
    performance-based restrictions, during the period of time
    established by the Compensation Committee. Restricted share
    units are similar to restricted shares except that no shares are
    actually awarded to the participant on the date of grant and the
    holder typically does not enjoy any shareholder rights
    (including voting) with respect to the units. Restricted share
    awards and restricted share unit awards are settled in shares.

    levels. Cash-based awards may be based upon the achievement of
    performance goals. Other stock-based awards and cash-based
    awards may be settled in cash, shares or a combination of cash
    and shares, as determined by the Compensation Committee and

    The Olympic Steel, Inc. Executive Deferred Compensation Plan,
    which we refer to as the Executive Deferred Compensation Plan,
    is a non-qualified contributory savings plan we established,
    effective December&#160;1, 2004, for the purpose of providing a
    tax effective deferred compensation opportunity for a select
    group of our management
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">and/or</FONT>
    highly compensated employees. Currently, Mr.&#160;Wolfort is the
    only participant who has elected to participate in the Executive
    Deferred Compensation Plan.

    Participants may defer all or any portion of their annual
    incentive award and up to 90% of their base salary to the
    Executive Deferred Compensation Plan. Each Participant is
    eligible to designate one or more investment options that are
    available under our 401(k) and profit-sharing plan as the deemed
    investment(s) for the participant&#146;s deferred compensation
    account or such other investment options determined appropriate
    in the sole discretion of the Board. Employee deferrals are
    credited with earnings, gains or losses based on the performance
    of investment options that are available under our 401(k) and
    profit-sharing plan and selected by the employee. Earnings under
    the Executive Deferred Compensation Plan are based on the same
    funds, with same annual returns for 2008, as described above
    with respect to the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. A
    participant&#146;s contributions are always 100% vested, and
    distributions from the plan will be paid in cash in a single
    lump sum upon termination of employment.

    We have executed retention agreements with Messrs.&#160;Siegal,
    Wolfort, Marabito and Manson and Ms.&#160;Potash. Under these
    agreements, which do not become operative unless we incur a
    change in control (as defined in the agreements), we agreed to
    continue the employment of the officer for a certain period
    following the change in control in the same position with the
    same duties and responsibilities and at the same compensation
    level as existed prior to the change in control. If the
    officer&#146;s employment is terminated without cause or by the
    officer for &#147;good reason&#148; during such period, or if
    the officer terminates his employment for any reason or no
    reason during the
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">12-month</FONT>
    period following a change in control, the officer is entitled to
    receive a lump-sum severance payment with continuation of
    medical, dental, disability and life insurance benefits for one
    year (two years in the cases of Messrs.&#160;Siegal and
    Wolfort). The applicable period for Messrs.&#160;Siegal and
    Wolfort is two years and their severance payment is equal to
    2.99 times the average of their respective last three
    years&#146; compensation, while the applicable period for
    Mr.&#160;Manson and Ms.&#160;Potash is one year and their
    severance payment is equal to the average of their respective
    last three years&#146; compensation. In 2008, we amended the
    retention agreement with Mr.&#160;Marabito to change his
    severance payment from one to two times the average of his
    respective last three years&#146; compensation to coincide with
    the terms of his 2006 employment agreement. Under our long-term
    equity-based incentive program, upon a change in control, each
    of our named executive officers would also be entitled to
    receive a payout for his or her performance-earned restricted
    stock units award made under our Incentive Plan, as discussed
    above, at the greater of the target level or actual achievement
    for the performance period.

    Compensation for purposes of this calculation includes salary,
    cash bonus, Company contributions to the Supplemental Executive
    Retirement Plan and 401(k) and profit-sharing plan on behalf of
    the officer, personal tax preparation fees, and automobile
    allowance (and country club dues in the cases of
    Messrs.&#160;Siegal and Wolfort). These retention agreements
    also provide that, in the event that any of the payments or
    benefits described above would constitute a &#147;parachute
    payment&#148; under Internal Revenue Code Section&#160;280G, the
    payments or benefits provided will be reduced so that no portion
    is subject to the excise tax imposed by Internal Revenue Code
    Section&#160;4999, but only to the extent such reduction will
    result in a net after tax benefit to the officer. Each of the
    retention agreements contains a non-competition prohibition for
    one year post-employment (two years in the cases of
    Messrs.&#160;Siegal and Wolfort).

    During 2008, each Director who was not one of our employees
    received a $45,000 annual retainer, payable in quarterly
    installments and reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses
    incurred in connection with attending board meetings. The Audit
    and Compliance Committee Chairman received an additional $10,000
    and the Chairmen of the Compensation and Nominating Committees
    each received an additional $5,000. Directors who are also our
    employees receive no additional remuneration for serving as
    Directors. Due to the ongoing global economic crisis, our non-
    employee directors have voluntarily reduced their 2009 cash fees
    by 20% of what they were entitled to receive for 2008.

    We have adopted a written policy for the review of transactions
    with related persons. The policy generally requires review,
    approval or ratification of transactions involving amounts
    exceeding $120,000 in which we are a participant and in which a
    director, director-nominee, executive officer or a significant
    shareholder of the Company, or an immediate family member of any
    of the foregoing persons, has a direct or indirect material
    interest. These transactions must be reported for review by our
    Audit and Compliance Committee. Following review, our Audit and
    Compliance Committee determines to approve or ratify these
    transactions, taking into account, among other factors it deems
    appropriate, whether they are on terms no less favorable to us
    than those available with other unaffiliated parties and the
    extent of the related person&#146;s interest in the transaction.
    The Chairman of our Audit and Compliance Committee has the
    authority to approve or ratify any related party transaction in
    which the aggregate amount involved is expected to be less than
    $500,000. The policy provides for standing pre-approval of
    certain related party transactions, even if the amounts involved
    exceed $120,000, including certain transactions involving:
    compensation paid to our executive officers and directors; other
    companies or charitable organizations where the amounts involved
    do not exceed $500,000 or 2% of the organization&#146;s total
    annual revenues or receipts; proportional benefits to all
    shareholders; rates or charges determined by competitive bids;
    services as a common or contract carrier or public utility; and

    The Audit and Compliance Committee has reviewed and discussed
    our consolidated financial statements with management and PwC,
    our independent auditors. Management is responsible for our
    financial statements and the financial reporting process,
    including the systems of internal controls. The independent
    auditors are responsible for performing an independent audit of
    our consolidated financial statements and internal control over
    financial reporting in accordance with the auditing standards of
    the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States),
    or PCAOB, and to issue a report thereon. The Audit and

    Management continued to review and enhance the internal control
    evaluation process and the Audit and Compliance Committee was
    kept apprised of the progress of the evaluation and provided
    oversight and advice to management. In connection with this
    oversight, the Audit and Compliance Committee receives periodic
    updates provided by management and PwC at each regularly
    scheduled Audit and Compliance Committee meeting. These updates
    occur at least quarterly. The Audit and Compliance Committee
    also holds regular private sessions with PwC to discuss their
    audit plan for the year, the financial statements and risks of
    fraud. At the conclusion of the process, management provides the
    Audit and Compliance Committee with, and the Audit and
    Compliance Committee reviews, a report on the effectiveness of
    our internal control over financial reporting. The Audit and
    Compliance Committee also reviews the report of management
