| The Board recommends you vote “FOR” the resolution approving the compensation of our named executive officers. |

Voting Standard The affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast, in person or by proxy, will constitute the stockholders’ non-binding approval with respect to Proposal 2. A stockholder may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN” with respect to Proposal 2. Any shares not voted (whether by abstention, broker non-vote, or otherwise) will have no impact on this Proposal 2. Before voting on this proposal, stockholders are encouraged to read and consider the proposal as described herein. Proposal 2 is considered a non-routine matter under NYSE rules. Under the NYSE rules, brokers are prohibited from giving proxies to vote on non-routine matters unless the beneficial owner of such shares has given voting instructions on the matter. This means that if your broker is the record holder of your shares, you must give voting instructions to your broker with respect to Proposal 2 if you want your broker to vote your shares on the matter.
