Board and
committees.
Buxton Helmsley is governed by a Board of Directors with a lead independent director and standing Audit and Nominating and Governance Committees. The firm holds the same governance to which it holds the companies it engages.

Mr. Parker is not an independent director. He serves as Chairman of the Board while also holding the office of Chief Executive Officer, and that executive role precludes a determination of independence.
Every other member of the Board is independent. Apart from Mr. Parker, each director is free of the executive and commercial relationships that would compromise independent judgment—and the Audit Committee and the Nominating and Governance Committee are accordingly composed entirely of independent directors.
Oversight, exercised.
