 shares constituted a majority of our outstanding stock entitled to vote at the meeting. Abstentions and broker nonvotes will be included in determining the presence of a quorum for the Annual Meeting. Q: What is the difference between holding shares as a shareholder of record and as a beneficial owner? A: If your shares are registered in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare, you are the “shareholder of record” with respect to those shares and we have sent the Notice and/or proxy materials directly to you. If your shares are held on your behalf in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are the “beneficial owner” of shares held in a “street name” and the Notice and/or proxy materials have been forwarded to you by your broker, bank, or nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to instruct your broker, bank, or nominee as to how to vote your shares by using the voting instruction form included in the mailing or by following their instructions for voting by telephone or the internet.

In each case, if your shares are held in a “street name” by a broker, bank, or other nominee, that entity should have provided you with a voting instruction form that will set forth the procedures you should follow to cast your vote. The availability of voting by telephone or internet for beneficial owners whose shares are held in a street name will depend on the voting procedures adopted by your broker, bank, or nominee. Therefore, we recommend that you follow the instructions in the materials they have provided to you. • Proxy card or voting instruction form : If your shares are registered in your name and you received a printed copy of our proxy materials, mark, sign and date your proxy card and return it in the postage-paid envelope we have provided or return it to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717. 78 TABLE OF CONTENTS • By telephone : If your shares are registered in your name, you may also vote by telephone by calling 1-800-690-6903 .
