 the resignation offer. Our Board will act upon the tendered resignation and publicly disclose its decision and rationale within ninety (90) days following certification of the shareholder vote. In a contested director election, a plurality voting standard will apply. Under the plurality voting standard, each of the nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes of the shares entitled to be voted for him or her will be elected. The election of directors at the Annual Meeting is uncontested and the majority voting standard will determine the directors that will serve until the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. Brokers are not permitted to vote your shares for the election of directors absent instruction from you. Therefore, we urge you to give voting instructions to your broker on the proposal so that your votes may be counted on this important matter. OUR DIRECTORS Our directors serve subject to the requirements of our charter and bylaws, including the requirement that directors not be “unsuitable persons,” within the meaning of our charter (“Unsuitable Person(s)”). In addition, certain jurisdictions in which we own properties require, either by statute or discretion of the applicable gaming or racing regulatory authority, our directors to acquire and maintain gaming licenses. Licenses typically require a determination from the applicable gaming or racing regulatory authority that the applicant qualifies or is suitable to hold such a license. Our charter requires that our directors maintain all required licenses. If one of our directors were to be determined to be an Unsuitable Person by virtue of failure to obtain or maintain such a license or otherwise, he or she would be subject to removal for cause by affirmative vote of the remaining members of our Board of Directors or by shareholders with an affirmative vote of 75% of the votes cast at a shareholder meeting. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.
