On December 30, 2008, Equifax Inc. (the "Company") announced that the Board of Directors of the Company has unanimously agreed to submit and support management proposals at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to declassify its Board structure and move to annual election of directors, and to change the voting standard for the election of directors in uncontested elections from a plurality to a majority voting standard. The Board also announced adoption of a director resignation policy to implement majority voting for directors in uncontested elected if approved by the shareholders.

If approved by the shareholders, directors will be elected for one-year terms rather than the current staggered three-year terms, beginning with the class of directors whose terms expire in 2010 so that by the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, all directors will be elected annually for one-year terms.
Majority voting in uncontested director elections would be effective for the 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
