 voted “ FOR” the nominee you marked. What happens if I return a BLUEproxy card but give voting instructions for more than two candidates? An overvote is an instance in which a stockholder returns a proxy card in a director election contest but exercises a vote “ FOR” more than the available seats up for election at the Annual Meeting. To the extent an overvote (i.e., voting “ FOR” with respect to more than the two nominees on Proposal 1) occurs on a record holder’s BLUEuniversal proxy card your votes on the election of directors will be invalid and will not be counted. If you are a beneficial holder and you vote “ FOR” more than two nominees on your BLUEuniversal proxy card (i.e., an overvote), your votes on the election of directors will be invalid and will not be counted.

(“ Computershare”), then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote virtually at the Annual Meeting or vote by proxy. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy over the telephone or on the internet as instructed below or return the enclosed BLUEuniversal proxy card we may mail to you to ensure your vote is counted. Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank, or Other Nominee If at the close of business on the Record Date, your shares were held in an account at a broker, bank, or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and the proxy
