Vote Results .
Preliminary voting results will be announced at the 2015 Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be published in a current
report on Form 8-K, which will be filed with the SEC by May 27, 2015.
Proxy Materials
An SEC rule allows companies like NVIDIA to furnish their proxy materials over the Internet even if the stockholder has not previously
elected to receive the materials in this manner. On or about April 9, 2015, we sent stockholders who own our common stock at the close of
business on March 24, 2015 (other than those who previously requested electronic or paper delivery) a Notice containing instructions on how to
access our proxy materials, vote over the Internet or by telephone, and elect to receive future proxy materials electronically or in printed form by
mail.
If you choose to receive future proxy materials electronically (via www.proxyvote.com
for stockholders of record and
www.icsdelivery.com/nvda for street name holders) you will receive an email next year with links to the proxy materials and proxy voting site.
SEC rules also permit companies and intermediaries, such as brokers, to satisfy Notice and proxy material delivery requirements for
multiple stockholders with the same address by delivering a single Notice or set of proxy materials addressed to those stockholders. We follow
this practice, known as “householding,” unless we have received contrary instructions from any stockholder at that address.
If you received more than one Notice or full set of proxy materials then your shares are either registered in more than one name or are held
in different accounts. Please vote the shares covered by each Notice or proxy card. To modify your instructions so that you receive one Notice or
proxy card for each account or name, please contact your broker. Your “householding”
election will continue until you are notified otherwise or
until you revoke your consent.
To make a change regarding the form in which you receive proxy materials (electronically or in print), or to request receipt of a separate set
of documents to a household, contact our Investor Relations Department (through our website at www.nvidia.com
, with an electronic mail
message to [email protected]m or by mail at 2701 San Tomas Expressway, Santa Clara, California 95050).
We will pay the entire cost of soliciting proxies. Our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, by mail, by
Internet or by other means of communication. Our directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.
We have also retained MacKenzie Partners on an advisory basis for an estimated fee of approximately $15,000 and they may help us solicit
proxies from brokers, bank nominees and other institutional owners. We may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost
of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.
2016 Annual Meeting Stockholder Proposals
To be considered for inclusion in next year’
s proxy materials, your proposal must be submitted in writing by December 11, 2015 to NVIDIA
Corporation, 2701 San Tomas Expressway, Santa Clara, California 95050, Attention: Secretary and must comply with all applicable
requirements of Rule 14a-
8 promulgated under the Exchange Act. However, if we do not hold our 2016 Annual Meeting between April 20, 2016
and June 19, 2016, then the deadline is a reasonable time before we begin to print and send our proxy materials. If you wish to submit a proposal
for consideration at the 2016 Annual Meeting that is not to be included in next year’
s proxy materials, you must do so in writing following the
above instructions not later than the close of business on December 11, 2015, and not earlier than November 11, 2015. We also advise you to
review our Bylaws, which contain additional requirements about advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations.
