 Board also considered feedback received from institutional investors during prior years’ engagement, which indicated a strong preference for the adoption of shareholders’ right to call a special meeting, but at a level that would prevent abuse and not allow a small group of shareholders a disproportionate amount of influence over the Company’s affairs.

The Hartford is committed to strong corporate governance practices and provides shareholders with other channels to raise concerns outside the annual meeting cycle.

As described on page 11 , The Hartford’s Board and management regularly consider best practices in corporate governance and shareholder feedback and modify our governance policies and practices as warranted. Among these practices, the Company provides shareholders with multiple channels to raise concerns outside the annual meeting cycle. For example:

• Since 2011, the Company annually reaches out to shareholders representing over 50% of shares outstanding to solicit their feedback on issues important to them; in recent years, our Lead Director has also engaged directly with shareholders.

• Shareholders may communicate directly with non-management directors, or raise a complaint or concern, by contacting EthicsPoint, an external vendor retained by the Company to take calls and report concerns to the appropriate persons for proper handling (see page 24 ).

• If important matters arise between annual meetings, special shareholder meetings may be called by a majority of Board or the Board’s Chairman.

In light of the Company’s existing special meeting right, market trends, and the Company’s other strong corporate governance practices, the Board believes that adoption of this Proposal is unnecessary and not in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Accordingly, the Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “AGAINST” this proposal.
