GENERAL INFORMATION
What if I change my mind after I submit my
proxy?
Stockholders, except for persons who
beneficially own shares held in trust in one
of the Company’s 401(k) retirement plans,
may revoke a proxy and change a vote by
delivering a later-dated proxy or by voting at
the meeting. The later-dated proxy may be
delivered by phone, Internet or mail and
need not be delivered by the same means
used in delivering the prior proxy
submission.
Except for persons beneficially owning
shares in one of the Company’s 401(k)
retirement plans, stockholders may do this
at a later date or time by:
• voting by phone or the Internet before
11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on Wednesday,
May 7, 2014 (your latest phone or
Internet proxy will be counted);
• signing and delivering a proxy card with a
later date; or
• voting at the meeting. (If you hold your
shares beneficially through a broker, you
must bring a legal proxy from the broker
in order to vote at the meeting. Please
also note that attendance at the meeting,
in and of itself, without voting in person
at the meeting, will not cause your
previously granted proxy to be revoked.)
Persons beneficially owning shares in one of
the Company’s 401(k) retirement plans
cannot vote in person at the meeting and
must vote in accordance with instructions
from the trustees. Subject to these
qualifications, such holders have the same
rights as other record and beneficial owners
to change their votes by phone or the
Internet, however, in all cases your vote
must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. Eastern
Time on Monday, May 5, 2014.
Stockholders of record can obtain a new
proxy card by contacting the Company’s
Corporate Secretary, Alaska Air Group, Inc.,
P.O. Box 68947, Seattle, WA 98168,
telephone [phone].
Stockholders with shares held by a broker,
trustee or bank can obtain a new voting
instruction form by contacting your broker,
trustee or bank.
Stockholders whose shares are held in one
of the Company’s 401(k) retirement plans
can obtain a new voting instruction form by
contacting the trustee of such plan. You can
obtain information about how to contact the
trustee from the Company’s Corporate
Secretary. Please refer to the section below
titled How are shares voted that are held in
a Company 401(k) plan? for more
information.
If you sign and date the proxy card or voting
instruction form and submit it in accordance
with the accompanying instructions and in a
timely manner, any earlier proxy card or
voting instruction form will be revoked and
your new choices will be voted.
How are shares voted that are held in the
Company’s 401(k) plan?
On the record date, 2,160,457 shares were
held in trust for Alaska Air Group 401(k) plan
participants. The trustees, Vanguard
Fiduciary Trust Company (Vanguard) and
Fidelity Management Trust Company
(Fidelity), provided Notice of Proxy and
Access instructions to each participant who
held shares through the Company’s 401(k)
plans on the record date. The trustees will
vote only those shares for which instructions
are received from participants. If a
participant does not indicate a preference
as to a matter, including the election of
directors, then the trustees will not vote the
participant’s shares on such matters.
