Board Committees

Each Committee consists solely of Directors meeting the independence requirements of NYSE Euronext.  As a result, neither the chief executive officer nor the deputy chief executive officer of NYSE Euronext serves on any of these Committees.  The NYSE Euronext Board of Directors reviews and adopts charters for each of these committees annually.

The Audit Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors and is charged with monitoring the internal and external reviews of the finances of NYSE Euronext and its subsidiaries.
