The activities of the Board of Directors, Audit Committee, Remuneration Committee, Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee during 2013 and the individual contribution of each member of the Board of Directors was evaluated by the members of the Board of Directors by filling out a special, detailed questionnaire which had been prepared by the Company Secretary. The questionnaire was divided into 8 sections (Leadership, Line-up-Effectiveness-Board operations, BoD Work-Responsibility, Financial Information – Internal Audit Systems and Risk Management - Communication with Shareholders, Remuneration, Committees’ Function, Members Attendance at the Board Meetings and the Shareholders Meetings and Individual Evaluation of the Members). Each member’s contribution is evaluated with a score, ranging from 1 to 4, corresponding to poor, moderate, satisfactory and excellent contribution. The questionnaires were filled out anonymously and sent to the Company Secretary.

The Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee presented the conclusions drawn from the answers to these questionnaires to the Board of Directors and submitted specific proposals on how to further improve the operations and performance of the Board of Directors and its Committees.

Moreover, the Board’s independent members evaluated the Chairman’s performance during a special meeting on 13/12/2013, without the presence of the Chairman or other executive members.
