Internet Posting of Proxy Materials
Why did I receive a notice regarding the internet availability of proxy materials instead of paper copies of the proxy materials?
This year, we are using the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, “notice only” rule that allows us to furnish our proxy
materials over the internet to our stockholders instead of mailing paper copies of those materials to each stockholder. As a result,
beginning on or about April 30, 2009, we sent to most of our stockholders by mail a notice containing instructions on how to access our
proxy materials over the internet and vote online. This notice is not a proxy card and cannot be used to vote your shares. If you
received only a notice this year, you will not receive paper copies of the proxy materials unless you request the materials by following
the instructions on the notice or on the website referred to in the notice.
The proxy statement and annual report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2008 are available at www.proxyvote.com.
If you own shares of common stock in more than one account—for example, in a joint account with your spouse and in your
individual brokerage account—you may have received more than one notice. To vote all of your shares by proxy, please follow each of
the separate proxy voting instructions that you received for your shares of common stock held in each of your different accounts.
How can I receive my proxy materials electronically in the future?
Although you may request paper copies of the proxy materials, we would prefer to send proxy materials to stockholders
electronically. Stockholders who sign up to receive proxy materials electronically will receive an e-mail prior to next year’ s annual
meeting with links to the proxy materials, which may give them faster delivery of the materials and will help us save printing and
mailing costs and conserve natural resources. Your election to receive proxy materials by e-mail will remain in effect until you
terminate your election. To receive proxy materials electronically by e-mail in the future, follow the instructions described in the
notice.
What is “householding”?
SEC rules allow a single copy of the proxy materials or the notice of internet availability of proxy materials to be delivered to
multiple stockholders sharing the same address and last name, or who we reasonably believe are members of the same family in a
manner provided by such rules. This practice is referred to as “householding” and can result in significant savings of paper and mailing
costs. In accordance with SEC rules, stockholders sharing the same address and last name, or who we reasonably believe are members
of the same family, will receive one copy of the proxy materials or notice of internet availability of proxy materials.
