 for you as a beneficial owner that do not indicate a vote for some of or all the proposals because that holder does not have voting authority and has not received voting instructions from you (or as described above, "broker non-votes") are also considered "shares present" for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists. If you are a beneficial owner, these holders are permitted to vote your shares on the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm, even if they do not receive voting instructions from you.

What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals?

Provided that there is a quorum, the voting requirements are as follows:

| Proposal                                                                                                                             |     | Vote Required                                                                                                                      |     | Voting Options |     | Broker Routine Matter Voting Allowed? |     | Impact of Abstain Votes |

1. Votes that are “WITHHELD” will not count as a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” a director because directors are elected by plurality voting.

2. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal Nos. 1, 2, or 3.

3. Abstentions will count as a vote
