employee voting for the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders
Chevron’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders will be held at Chevron Park Auditorium, 6001 Bollinger Canyon Road, San Ramon, CA, on Wednesday, May 29, 2019.
On or after Thursday, April 18, Chevron employees who hold Chevron common stock through an employee stock or retirement benefit plan and who have a Chevron-issued email address will be sent an email with instructions for voting their shares online and links to the Notice of the 2019 Annual Meeting, the 2019 Proxy Statement, and the 2018 Annual Report. Chevron employees who participate in an employee stock or retirement benefit plan, but do not receive an email, will receive the information through the mail. Time of delivery will vary based on geographic location.
The Proxy Statement and Annual Report are also now available electronically on www.chevron.com/investors/stockholder-services and can be accessed, viewed, and printed at your convenience. The Proxy Statement includes important information on matters that will be voted on at the meeting.
You will be voting to elect members of the Company’s Board of Directors; to ratify the appointment of PwC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of Chevron’s named executive officers; and on five stockholder proposals.
Electronic delivery of the proxy materials saves natural resources, in addition to saving the Company printing and delivery costs. However, if you wish to receive a paper copy of the Proxy Statement or Annual Report, you may submit a request indicating the item(s) you wish to receive, along with your name and intercompany mailing address, to corpgov@chevron.com.
