#### Q:

#### How are votes counted?
A: In the election of directors, you may vote “FOR” all of the nominees or you may “WITHHOLD” your vote with respect to one or more of the nominees. For all other proposals you may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN,” and if you “ABSTAIN” on any of these matters, it has the same effect as a vote “AGAINST,” as described in response to the question below.

If you sign your proxy card with no further instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Board.

Q: What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals?

A: Directors are elected by a plurality of votes cast, which means that, for this year, the seven persons receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. Proposal Nos. 2-3 require the affirmative “FOR” vote of a majority of those shares present and entitled to vote. If you are a beneficial owner and do not provide your stockbroker, bank, or other nominee with voting instructions on a non-routine matter such as a director election, your shares may constitute broker non-votes, as described in “How are abstentions and broker non-votes counted?” below.

Q: How are abstentions and broker non-votes counted?

A: Generally, broker non-votes occur when shares held by a stockbroker for a beneficial owner are not voted with respect to a particular proposal because the proposal is a non-routine matter, the stockbroker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner, and the stockbroker lacks discretionary voting power to vote the shares. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining the shares present and entitled to vote for purposes of the quorum requirement. Each of Proposal Nos. 2 and 3 will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of common stock represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against such proposals. Broker non-votes are not counted as either
