|    |     | Under NYSE rules, brokers or other nominees who hold shares for a beneficial owner have the discretion to vote on a limited number of “routine” proposals when they have not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner at least ten days prior to the Annual Meeting. Your shares may be voted on Proposal 2 if they are held in the name of a brokerage firm, even if you do not provide the brokerage firm with voting instructions, since the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm is considered a “routine” proposal. All other items on this year’s ballot are considered “non-routine” proposals under NYSE rules for which brokers may not vote absent voting instructions from the beneficial owner. A “broker non-vote” occurs when a broker or other nominee does not vote on a particular proposal because such broker or nominee does not receive such voting instructions and does not have the discretion to vote the shares. |
|    |     | Pursuant to Maryland law, abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. However, abstentions and broker non-votes, as applicable, will have no impact on the outcome of any of the four proposals, as they are not counted as votes cast.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
