THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR ALL” FOR PROPOSAL ONE AND “FOR” PROPOSALS TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE AND SIX.
No proposal is contingent on the approval of any other proposal disclosed above.
Any action may be taken on any one of the foregoing proposals at the Meeting on the date specified above or on any date or dates to which the Meeting may be postponed or adjourned. We do not expect to transact any other business at the Annual Meeting. Our Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on May 6, 2024, as the record date for determining those stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof. Accordingly, only common stockholders of record at the close of business on that date are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting.
We cordially invite you to attend the Annual Meeting. However, to ensure your representation at the Annual Meeting, please authorize the individuals named on your proxy card to vote your shares by calling the toll-free telephone number, faxing your proxy card or by using the Internet as described in the instructions included with your proxy card or voting instruction card. Alternatively, if you received a paper copy of the proxy card by mail, please complete, date, sign and promptly return the proxy card. This will not prevent you from voting at the meeting, but will help to secure a quorum and avoid added solicitation costs. If your shares are held in “street name” by your broker or other nominee, only that holder can vote your shares and the vote cannot be cast unless you provide instructions to your broker. You should follow the directions provided by your broker regarding how to instruct your broker to vote your shares. Your proxy may be revoked at any time before it is voted. Please review the proxy statement accompanying this notice for more complete information regarding the matters to be voted on at the meeting.
