 from the beneficial owner. The rules of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) determine whether matters presented at the Annual Meeting are “routine” or “non-routine” in nature. Pursuant to such rules, the election of directors is not considered a “routine” matter. Therefore, beneficial owners that hold their shares in “street name” will have to give voting instructions to their brokers in order for a broker to vote on such proposal. We encourage you to provide voting instructions to your brokers if you hold your shares in street name so that your voice is heard in the election of directors. If we receive a signed proxy with no voting instructions, such shares will be voted “For” the proposal to elect directors.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the meeting by the holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to vote thereon is required for the amendments and extension of the Directors' Stock Award Plan described in this proxy statement. Abstentions are counted for quorum purposes. Abstentions are counted as a vote “Against” this proposal. Broker non-votes are not counted either as votes cast “For” or “Against” this proposal. If we receive a signed proxy with no voting instructions, such shares will be voted “For” the approval of the Directors’ Stock Award Plan amendments and extension as described in this proxy statement.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy or by any permissible means of remote communication, including electronic transmission or telephonic means, at the meeting by the holders of Common Stock entitled to vote thereon is required to ratify the selection of the independent accountants described in this proxy statement. Abstentions are counted for quorum purposes. Abstentions are not counted either as votes cast “For” or “Against” the proposal to ratify the selection of the independent accountants described in this proxy statement. Because the ratification of the appointment of independent accountants is considered a “routine” matter, and brokers have discretionary authority to vote on this matter without any instructions from the beneficial owners, we do not expect any broker non-votes in connection with this proposal. If we receive a signed proxy with no voting instructions, such shares will be voted “For” the proposal to ratify the selection of the independent accountants.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy or by any permissible means of remote communication, including electronic transmission or telephonic means, at the meeting by the holders of
