| (3) | Brokers only have authority to vote in their discretion for routine matters, as determined by the rules of the NYSE. All of the proposals, except for Proposal 3, are considered non-routine matters. If you are a beneficial owner holding shares through a broker and you do not specify a choice to your broker for a non-routine proposal, the broker is not entitled to vote in its discretion. In contrast, Proposal 3 is normally considered a “routine” matter and would normally be the only proposal at the Annual Meeting with respect to which your broker could vote your shares absent your instructions. However, to the extent your broker provides you with Vision One’s proxy materials, your broker will not have discretion to vote on "routine" matters, including Proposal 3. In such circumstances, if you do not instruct your broker on how to vote your shares, then your shares may not be voted on any of Proposals 1, 2, 3 or 4. We urge you to instruct your broker about how you wish your shares to be voted using the WHITE voting instruction form. |

Who counts the votes? We have retained First Coast Results, Inc. (“First Coast”) to serve as independent inspector of election. In such capacity, First Coast will count, tabulate and certify votes at the Annual Meeting. What happens if Vision One withdraws or abandons its solicitation or fails to comply with the universal proxy rules and I already granted proxy authority in favor of Vision One and its control slate? If Vision One withdraws or abandons its solicitation or fails to comply with the universal proxy rules, any votes cast in favor of Vision One’s director nominees will be disregarded and not be counted, whether such vote is provided on the Company’s WHITEproxy card or Vision One’s gold proxy card.
