AFTER THE SHAREHOLDER ENTERS THEIR 14 DIGIT CONTROL NUMBER, HE/SHE HEARS:

IF THERE IS A PRIOR VOTE IN THE SYSTEM FOR THE CONTROL NUMBER ENTERED YOU HEAR:
“ I see that you’ve already voted. If you don’t want to change your vote you can just hang-up. Otherwise, remain on the line and I’ll take you through the voting process again...”
IF THERE IS NO PRIOR VOTE, THE FOLLOWING IS HEARD:
