Stockholders attending the Annual Meeting remotely will have the same opportunities they have had at past annual meetings to participate, vote, ask questions, and provide feedback to the company’s management team and the Board of Directors.
If you were a stockholder of record at the close of business on the record date of March 10, 2020, you are eligible to access, participate in and vote at the virtual meeting. The items of business are the same as set forth in the meeting notice previously mailed or made available to you.
