Shares of our Common Stock abstaining and shares of our Common Stock held in street name as to which a broker has not voted on some matters but has voted on other matters, or Broker Shares, will be included in determining whether a quorum exists at the Meeting. The New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE, has adopted rules that eliminate broker discretionary voting for the election of directors and certain other corporate governance matters. Therefore, your broker is not able to vote on your behalf in any director election or with respect to the third matter specified in the Notice of Meeting, in each case without voting instructions from you.Assuming that a quorum exists at the Meeting, approval of each of the first and second matters specified in the Notice of Meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Meeting, and approval, on an advisory basis, of the non-binding resolution with respect to the third matter specified in the Notice of Meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Meeting. Stockholders may not
**cumulate their votes. Abstentions and Broker Shares that have not been voted with respect to the first, second or third matter specified in the Notice of Meeting will not be counted in determining the total number of votes cast for such matter or in determining whether such proposal has received the requisite number of affirmative votes.
