3. OVERVIEW OF PIERCE CONSULTING PARTNERS OUR REPUTATION IS OUTSTANDING : 90% OF OUR CLIENTS ARE REPEAT PARTNERS • Pierce Consulting Partners is a boutique executive search firm founded in 2002. • We specialize in chief executive and senior-level management search assignments for a wide variety of clients, including global multi-billion dollar corporations, mid-cap and startup companies. • Our partners are located in Atlanta, Chicago and Charlotte and have a national reach. • Combined, our senior partners have completed over 500 executive level searches nationwide and all have previously worked at large global “talent driven” firms – either global search or Fortune 200 companies. • Our business model was created with you, our client, in mind. We combine the sophistication of large search firms with the personalized attention of a boutique.

4. OUR STRATEGIC MODEL 90% of our clients are repeat partners because we are able to consistently exceed their highest expectations(*). We accomplish this by implementing our unique model: • SENIOR PARTERS EXECUTE YOUR SEARCH: • Only highly experienced partners ever touch our search process. All partners have previously worked for either a large global search firm or held an executive role with a Fortune 200 company. This positions our most senior people at the critical “front-end” of introductory calls, enhancing the credibility and effectiveness with the most discriminating executives whom we approach on your behalf. • WE ONLY WORK ON TWO TO FOUR SEARCHES AT ANY ONE TIME..PER TEAM: • You get our attention and as a result receive a higher level of quality. This also leads to quicker and more efficient search completions. • WE HAVE ACCESS TO THE FULL TALENT POOL: • We have fewer clients and maintain a high client repeat rate, providing us with a much larger talent pool from which to select your candidates. This also results in our ability to provide our clients with a higher quality of candidates. Large search firms have a much larger client base, thus eliminating those companies from their pool of available candidates. Additionally, they can only reserve an executive to one search at a time, thus making that executive unavailable to the rest of their clients. See our video explaining how talent is managed by search firms at www.piercecp.com • WE COMMUNICATE WITH OUR CLIENTS FREQUENTLY: • Our goal is to be highly responsive. We promote weekly update calls with the search committee team where we share our detailed status report. In addition, we make ourselves available anytime to talk with our clients and attempt to stay in close contact throughout the search process. This allows transparency and ensures that searches are completed quickly, efficiently and without surprises.

5. ADVANTAGES OF A BOUTIQUE SEARCH FIRM • EXPERIENCED PARTNERS EXECUTE ALL OF YOUR SEARCH • CLIENTS ARE MORE IMPORTANT TO US • GREATER ACCESS TO CANDIDATE POOL • LIMITED OFF-LIMITS
