Candidates nominated by stockholders
The nominating and governance committee will consider director candidates recommended by a stockholder in the same
manner as all other candidates recommended by other sources. A stockholder may recommend a candidate at any time
of the year by writing to the Office of the Secretary, The Allstate Corporation, 2775 Sanders Road, Suite A2W,
Northbrook, Illinois 60062-6127. A stockholder also may directly nominate someone for election as a director at a
stockholders’ meeting. Under our bylaws, a stockholder may nominate a candidate at the 2014 annual meeting of
stockholders by providing advance notice to Allstate that is received by the Office of the Secretary no earlier than the
close of business on January 21, 2014, and no later than February 20, 2014. The notice must be sent to the Office of the
Secretary, The Allstate Corporation, 2775 Sanders Road, Suite A2W, Northbrook, Illinois 60062-6127 and must meet the
requirements set forth in the corporation’s bylaws. A copy of the bylaws is available from the Office of the Secretary
