| | Lionbridge: Audit Committee Charter |
 | | Establish procedures to ensure pre-approval by the Committee of all audit services as well as all permitted services to be provided by the independent accounting firm that are not in connection with an audit or review of the Corporation's financial statements. | | | The Committee need not pre-approve the non-audit services if the aggregate amount of the non-audit services constitutes not more than 5% of the total revenues the Corporation paid to the independent accounting firm during the fiscal year in which the services were provided. | | | While the Audit Committee has the responsibilities and powers set forth in this Charter, it is not the duty of the Audit Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that the Corporation's financial statements are complete and accurate and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. |
