In connection with the election of members to the Board of The Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Newfoundland, a call is hereby made for nominations to fill vacancies on the Board to serve a two-year term
commencing with the July 2008 Annual General Meeting. Nominations are required to fill four vacancies.

Newfoundland and Labrador are eligible for election to the Board. At all times at least one CA member of the
Board must be resident outside the Avalon Peninsula.
