 Our Board recognizes the interest the Company’s shareholders have in the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. In recognition of that interest and in accordance with the requirements of SEC rules, including Section 14A of the Exchange Act, and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, this resolution, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, provides the Company’s shareholders with the opportunity to cast a non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules, including the discussion of the Company’s compensation program and philosophy beginning on page35of this proxy statement and the compensation tables beginning on page46of this proxy statement. This non-binding advisory vote is intended to give the Company’s shareholders an opportunity to provide an overall assessment of the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers rather than focus on any specific item of compensation. 
 For information on the purpose, goals and best practices of our compensation program, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” beginning on page31of this proxy statement.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
 As a non-binding advisory vote, the shareholders’ vote on this resolution is not binding on our Board or the Company, and our Board could, if it concluded it was in the Company’s best interests to do so, choose not to follow or implement the outcome of the advisory vote. However, the Company expects that the Compensation Committee of our Board will review voting results on this resolution and give consideration to the outcome when making future executive compensation decisions
