Explanatory Note
The statements provided in our proxy statement under the heading “Important Voting Information” are modified and supplemented as provided below:
With respect to the amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation proposal, proxy proposal no. 2, if so determined by the New York Stock Exchange, a broker or nominee who holds shares for a beneficial owner will have authority to vote these shares even without instructions from the beneficial owner.
Your broker may not be able to vote your shares with respect to some of the proposals being voted on if you do not provide instructions to your broker. We strongly encourage you to exercise your right to vote as early as possible before the date of the meeting to be held on May 16, 2012.
If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by another nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, trustee or nominee how to vote, and you should follow the instructions provided by your bank, broker or nominee when voting shares held in street name. If your broker, trustee or nominee has not enclosed or provided voting instructions for you to use in directing the broker, trustee or nominee how to vote your shares, or how to revoke a prior vote, you should contact your broker, trustee or nominee in order to obtain these instructions.
