DELIVERY OF PROXY MATERIALS TO HOUSEHOLDS
Only one copy of this Proxy Statement and one copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2011 are being delivered to multiple registered
stockholders who share an address unless the Company has received contrary instructions from one or more of the stockholders. A separate form of proxy and
a separate notice of the Annual Meeting are being included for each account at the shared address.
Registered stockholders who share an address and would like to receive a separate copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2011 and/or a
separate copy of this Proxy Statement, or have questions regarding the householding process, may contact the Company's transfer agent: American Stock
Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, by calling 1-800-937-5449, or by forwarding a written request addressed to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company,
LLC, 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219. Promptly upon request, a separate copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2011 and/or a
separate copy of this Proxy Statement will be sent. By contacting American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, registered stockholders sharing an
address can also (i) notify the Company that the registered stockholders wish to receive separate annual reports to stockholders, proxy statements and/or
Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, as applicable, in the future or (ii) request delivery of a single copy of annual reports to stockholders, proxy
statements and/or Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, as applicable, in the future if registered stockholders at the shared address are receiving
multiple copies.
Many brokers, brokerage firms, broker/dealers, banks and other holders of record have also instituted "householding" (delivery of one copy of materials
to multiple stockholders who share an address). If your family has one or more "street name" accounts under which you beneficially own shares of Common
Stock, you may have received householding information from your broker, brokerage firm, broker/dealer, bank or other nominee in the past. Please contact
the holder of record directly if you have questions, require additional copies of this Proxy Statement or our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2011 or
wish to revoke your decision to household and thereby receive multiple copies. You should also contact the holder of record if you wish to institute
householding.
