 in person or by proxy, at the annual meeting. Your shares are counted as present if you attend the annual meeting or if you properly return a proxy over the Internet, by telephone or by mail. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as “present” for purposes of establishing a quorum at the annual meeting. If a quorum is not present at the annual meeting, the annual meeting may be adjourned from time to time until a quorum is present.

Q: How are abstentions and broker non-votes counted?

A:Votes will be counted and certified by an independent inspector of elections. Abstentions and broker non-votes (as defined below) will be counted for purposes of establishing a quorum but will not affect the outcome of the vote on any proposal. If you hold shares through an account with a bank, broker or other similar holder of record, the voting of the shares by the bank, broker or other similar holder of record when you do not provide voting instructions is governed by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). These rules allow banks, brokers and other similar holders of record to vote shares in their discretion on “routine” matters for which their customers do not provide voting instructions. On matters considered “non-routine,” banks, brokers and other similar holders of record may not vote shares (referred to as “broker non-votes”) without your instruction.
