You are entitled to attend the annual meeting only if you were a shareholder as of the Record Date (or you hold a valid legal proxy naming you to act for one of our shareholders as of the record date). Please note that seating is limited, and admission will be accepted on a first-come, first served basis.

Please print your registration confirmation and bring it with you to the meeting along with valid photo identification, such as a driver’s license or passport. If you do not have a printed registration confirmation, we must be able to confirm:
- your identity by reviewing a valid form of photo identification, such as a driver’s license; and
- you were a registered shareholder or held your shares in street name on the Record Date by:
- verifying your name and stock ownership against our list of registered shareholders; or
- reviewing other evidence of your stock ownership that shows your current name and address, such as a copy of your most recent brokerage or bank statement or the Notice, if you hold your shares in street name; or
- you are validly acting as proxy:
- for a registered shareholder as of the Record Date, by reviewing a written legal proxy granted to you and signed by the registered shareholder; or
- for a street name holder as of the Record Date, by reviewing a written legal proxy from a brokerage firm or bank holding the shares to the street name holder that is assignable, and a written legal proxy to you signed by the street name holder, together with a brokerage or bank statement or Notice showing the street name holder’s shares as described above.
