#### Proxy Solicitation Costs
We will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. We have engaged Morrow Sodali LLC (the “Proxy Solicitor”) to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Meeting. We have agreed to pay the Proxy Solicitor a fee of $10,000 plus disbursements. In addition to the mailing of these proxy materials, the solicitation of proxies or votes may be made, by telephone or by electronic communication by our directors, officers and employees, who will not receive any additional compensation for such solicitation activities. In addition to these proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by other means of communication. Directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.

#### Revoking your Proxy
If you are a shareholder of record, whether you give your proxy over the Internet, by telephone or by mail, you may revoke it at any time before it is exercised. You may enter a new vote by voting online at the virtual meeting, electronically, by mail or by telephone so long as it is received prior to the Meeting. If you hold your shares beneficially, you must follow the instructions provided by your broker or nominee as to whether and how you may revoke your proxy. Attending the Meeting alone will not revoke your proxy.
