 largest number of votes cast “for” are elected as directors. As a result, any shares not voted “for” a particular nominee (whether as a result of stockholder abstention or a broker non-vote) will not be counted in such nominee’s favor and will have no effect on the outcome of the election. You may vote “for” or “withhold” for each of the nominees for election as director.

Proposal No. 2: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditors . The ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP requires the approval of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions are considered shares present and entitled to vote, and thus, will have the same effect as votes "against" the proposal. Broker non-votes are not expected to result from this proposal.

Proposal No. 3: Advisory Vote on the Compensation of our Named Executive Officers . The advisory vote regarding named executive officer compensation requires the approval of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions are considered shares present and entitled to vote, and thus, will have the same effect as votes “against” the proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because this vote is advisory only, it will not be binding on us or on our Board. However, our Board or our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when making future decisions regarding executive compensation.

Proposal No. 4: Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes to Approve the Compensation of our Named Executive Officers . The frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation selected by stockholders will be the frequency receiving the highest number of votes from the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this vote. Because this vote is advisory only, it will not be binding on us or on our Board. However, our Board or our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when determining how often we should submit to stockholders an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers.
