John Lawson was recently named as HCU’s Chairman of the Board. Lawson succeeds
Dr. John Kerr, who has served as Chairman since 2000. Dr. Kerr will remain as a member

board member. We want to especially thank Dr. Kerr for his years of service as Chairman
and wish Mr. Lawson the best as he assumes his new role in January 2009.
