If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank or other nominee, you should have received voting instructions with the Notice from that institution rather than from us. To ensure that your vote is counted, simply follow the instructions in the materials received from your broker, bank or other nominee to vote electronically during the Annual Meeting, via the Internet in advance of the Annual Meeting or by telephone or, if you received a proxy card by mail, complete, sign and return the proxy card.

We provide Internet proxy voting to allow you to vote your shares online, with procedures designed to ensure the authenticity and correctness of your proxy vote instructions. However, please be aware that you must bear any costs associated with your Internet access, such as usage charges from Internet access providers.

How many votes do I have?

On each matter to be voted on, you have one vote for each share of common stock you own as of the close of business on the Record Date. Stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights.
