PR Newswire (US)
SAN FRANCISCO, April 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Glass, Lewis & Co., a
leading independent research and proxy advisory firm, will host a
Proxy Talk conference call on Thursday, April 17 at 2:00 p.m. (EDT)
with Daniel P. Amos, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Aflac
Inc. Mr. Amos will discuss the company's
advisory-vote-on-compensation proposal, which will be submitted to
shareholders at the company's annual meeting on May 5, 2008. The
proposal, a first for a U.S. company, is similar to that submitted
for shareholder vote at companies in the U.K., Australia and
elsewhere. This proposal gives shareholders the ability to cast a
non-binding vote on the company's executive compensation policies
and procedures. On the call, Glass Lewis will discuss Aflac's
reasoning for granting shareholders this opportunity to vote on the
company's compensation practices and how shareholders have
responded. This conference call is for Glass Lewis clients and
other invited institutional investors. Institutional investors can
