If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other agent how to vote your shares, your broker, bank or other agent may still be able to vote your shares in its discretion. In this regard, under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), brokers, banks, and other securities intermediaries that are subject to NYSE rules may use their discretion to vote your “uninstructed” shares with respect to matters considered to be “routine” under NYSE rules, but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. In this regard, Proposal 1, the election of directors and Proposal 3, the advisory vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, are considered to be “non-routine” matters under NYSE rules, meaning that your broker may not vote your shares on that proposal in the absence of your voting instructions.
