Dear Fellow Shareholder:
You recently received proxy materials in connection with a Special Meeting of Shareholders of Alliance Bancorp, Inc. of Pennsylvania to be held Wednesday, July 20, 2011, and according to our latest records, your proxy vote for this meeting HAS NOT YET BEEN RECEIVED.
The Company is asking shareholders to vote on proposals to approve the adoption of the 2011 Stock Option Plan and to approve the adoption of the 2011 Recognition and Retention Plan and Trust Agreement.
The affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote on these proposals is required to approve the proposals. FAILURE TO VOTE ON THE PROPOSALS WILL HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS A VOTE AGAINST THE PROPOSALS.
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the proposals to approve the adoption of the 2011 Stock Option Plan and to approve the adoption of the 2011 Recognition and Retention Plan and Trust Agreement.
You should be aware that both major independent shareholder advisory firms, Institutional Shareholder Services and Glass Lewis & Co., have recommended a vote in favor of the plans.
Regardless of the number of shares you own, it is important that they be represented at the Special Meeting of Shareholders.
Please vote your shares of stock now so that your vote can be counted without delay. Voting is easy; you may utilize one of the options below to ensure that your vote is promptly recorded in time for the Special Meeting of Shareholders:
