of your bank, broker or other nominee.

How many votes do I have?

Each outstanding share of our common stock you owned as of the Record

What is the difference between a stockholder of record and a beneficial owner of shares held in street name?

Stockholder of Record.If your shares are registered directly
in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”), you are considered the stockholder
of record with respect to those shares.

Beneficial Owner of Shares Held in Street Name.If your shares
are held in an account at a bank, broker or other similar organization, you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name.”
The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial
owner, you have the right to instruct that organization on how to vote the shares held in your account.

Who counts the votes?
