EGYTRANS has adopted and applies the following
definition for an Independent Director:
The purpose of identifying and
appointing independent directors is to ensure that the
board includes directors who can effectively exercise
their best judgment for the benefit of EGYTRANS,
unclouded by real or perceived conflicts of interest.
In each case where a director is identified as
“independent”, the EGYTRANS board of directors will
affirmatively determine that he or she meets the
requirements established by the board and is otherwise
free of material relations with the Company’s
management, controllers, or others that might reasonably
be expected to interfere with the independent exercise
of his/her best judgment for the exclusive interest of
the Company. |
|
|
|
EGYTRANS Independent Director" is defined as a director
who: |
|
1. |

or affiliated with any trust or similar arrangement of
which any such persons or a combination thereof are the
beneficiaries or the executor, administrator or personal
representative of any deceased or legally incompetent
person described herein , |
|
For the purposes
of this definition, a person shall be deemed to be
"affiliated" with a party if such person (i) has a
direct or indirect ownership interest in or (ii) is
