| • |     | by attending and voting at the Special Meeting. |

Attendance at the Special Meeting will not, in itself, constitute revocation of a previously granted proxy. If you own Common Stock in “street name,” you may revoke or change previously granted voting instructions by following the instructions provided by the broker, bank or other nominee that is the registered owner of the shares. Pursuant to our bylaws, only the matters set forth in the notice of special meeting may be brought before the Special Meeting. Solicitation of Proxies We will bear the cost of solicitation of proxies for the Special Meeting. In addition to the use of mail, proxies may be solicited by personal interview, telephone, facsimile, e-mailor otherwise, by our officers, directors and other employees, for which they will not receive additional compensation. We have engaged Sodali to assist in the solicitation of proxies for a fee of up to $27,500, plus reimbursement of out-of-pocketexpenses, and we have agreed to indemnify Sodali against certain losses, costs and expenses. We also will request persons, firms and corporations holding shares in their names, or in the names of their nominees, that are beneficially owned by others to send or cause to be sent proxy materials to, and obtain proxies from, such beneficial owners and will reimburse such holders for their reasonable expenses in so doing. Adjournments Our bylaws permit the chairman of the Special Meeting, acting in his own discretion and without any action by our stockholders, to adjourn the Special Meeting (whether or not a quorum is present) to a later date and time and at a place announced at the Special Meeting. The adjourned meeting may take place without further notice other than by an announcement made at the Special Meeting unless the adjournment is for more than 120 days after the original record date or if, after the adjournment, a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, in which 26

case a notice of the adjourned meeting will be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the Special Meeting (subject to certain restrictions in the Merger Agreement, including that
the Special Meeting generally may not be held, without Parent consent, on a date that is more than 10 days after the date on which the Special Meeting was originally scheduled).
