 instructions on the proxy card you received; • by telephone by following the instructions on the proxy card; or • by attending the audio webcast of the annual meeting and voting at the directed time. If I am a beneficial owner of shares, how do I vote? If your shares are held for you in an account with a broker, bank or similar organization, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of those shares, which are generally referred to as being held in “street name,” and you should have received these proxy materials from that organization. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, there are several ways to vote your shares: • by completing, signing and dating the voting instruction form provided by the organization that holds your shares and returning the form to that organization, which will vote your shares in accordance with your instructions; • if your broker, bank or other nominee permits you to provide voting instructions via the Internet or by telephone, you may vote that way as well; or • by attending the audio webcast of the annual meeting and voting at the directed time. However, in order to vote at the meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from the organization that holds your shares. Follow the instructions from the broker, bank or other organization holding your shares to obtain such a proxy. In order that your shares are properly voted, we encourage you to provide specific voting instructions with respect to each proposal to any organization that holds your shares in street name by carefully following the organization’s voting instructions. What happens if I do not provide specific voting instructions? If you are a stockholder of record and you return a signed and dated proxy card without providing specific voting instructions, the persons named as proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner recommended by the Board of Directors on all of the proposals described in this proxy statement. If any other matter is properly presented at the meeting, the proxy holders will vote your shares as they may determine in their discretion. If you are the beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide specific voting instructions to the organization that holds your shares, the organization may generally vote your shares at their discretion on “routine matters” but cannot vote on “non-routine” matters. “Non-routine” matters would include the election of directors (Proposal No. 1) and the advisory (non-binding) vote on executive compensation (Proposal No. 3), while “routine” matters would include the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal No. 2).
