With respect to the proposal or other matters considered at the Meeting, only those votes cast “FOR” or “AGAINST” are counted for the purposes of determining the number of votes cast with respect to the proposal. Abstentions are not considered votes cast and have no effect on the outcome of the proposal.
Voting Process and Revocation of Proxies
If you are a shareholder of record, and you received your proxy materials by mail or if you requested paper copies of the proxy materials, you can vote by mail by marking, dating, signing and returning the proxy card in the postage-paid envelope. Submitting your proxy by mail will not affect your ability to attend the Meetingin-person and vote at the Meeting.
If your shares are held in “street name,” meaning you are a beneficial owner with your shares held through a bank or brokerage firm, you will receive instructions from your bank or brokerage firm. You must follow the instructions of the holder of record in order for your shares to be voted.
The Company will retain an independent tabulator to receive and tabulate the proxies.
If you submit a proxy and direct how your shares will be voted, the individuals named as proxies will vote your shares in the manner you indicate. If you submit a proxy but do not direct how your shares will be voted, the individuals named as proxies will vote your shares “FOR” the proposal identified herein, to the extent that discretion is duly provided for by proxy in accordance with Luxembourg law.
It is not expected that any other matters will be brought before the Meeting. If, however, other matters are properly presented, the individuals named as proxies will vote in accordance with their discretion with respect to such matters, to the extent that such discretion is duly provided for by proxy in accordance with Luxembourg law.
A shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it at any time before it is exercised at the Meeting by:
| • | | attending the Meeting and voting in person; |
| • | | delivering a written notice, at the address given below, bearing a date later than that indicated on the proxy card, but prior to the date of the Meeting, stating that the proxy is revoked; or |
| • | | signing and delivering a subsequently dated proxy card prior to the vote at the Meeting. |
You should send any written notice or new proxy card to Atento S.A., c/o Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717.

Any shareholder owning shares in street name may change or revoke previously given voting instructions by contacting the bank or brokerage firm holding the shares or by obtaining a legal proxy from such bank or brokerage firm and voting in person at the Meeting.
