IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING DELIVERY OF PROXY MATERIALS
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules regarding how companies must provide proxy materials to their stockholders. These rules are often referred to as “notice and access,” under which a company may select either of the following options for making proxy materials available to its stockholders:
the full set delivery option; or
the notice only option.
A company may use a single method for all of its stockholders, or use full set delivery for some while adopting the notice only option for others.
Full Set Delivery Option
Under the full set delivery option, a company delivers all proxy materials to its stockholders by mail as it would have done prior to the change in the rules. In addition to delivery of proxy materials to stockholders, the company must post all proxy materials on a publicly-accessible website and provide information to stockholders about how to access the website. In connection with our Annual Meeting, we have elected to use the full set delivery option. Accordingly, you will receive all proxy materials by mail. These proxy materials include the attached Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Notice Card”), this Proxy Statement, proxy card and the 2023 Form 10-K.
Notice Only Option
Under the notice only option, which we have elected NOT to use for the Annual Meeting, a company must post all proxy materials on a publicly-accessible website. Instead of delivering proxy materials to its stockholders, the company instead delivers a “Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Material.” The notice includes, among other things:
information regarding the date and time of the Annual Meeting as well as the items to be considered at the meeting;
information regarding the website where the proxy materials are posted; and
various means by which a stockholder can request paper or e-mail copies of the proxy materials
If a stockholder requests paper copies of the proxy materials, these materials must be sent to the stockholder within three business days and by first class mail.
We May Use the Notice Only Option in the Future
Although we have elected to use the full set delivery option in connection with the Annual Meeting, we may choose to use the notice only option in the future. By reducing the amount of materials that a company needs to print and mail, the notice only option provides an opportunity for cost savings as well as conservation of paper products. Many companies that have used the notice only option have also experienced a lower participation rate resulting in fewer stockholders voting at their annual meeting. We plan to evaluate the future possible cost savings as well as the possible impact on stockholder participation as we consider future use of the notice only option.
Delivery of Proxy Materials
On or about July 1, 2024, this Proxy Statement, an accompanying proxy card, the Notice Card and the 2023 Form 10-K, will be mailed to stockholders and will be made available to stockholders on our Investor Relations website athttps://www.edocumentview.com/ALLR2024.
