2013 Proxy Statement 5
Q: What happens if additional matters are presented at the Annual Meeting?
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
A: If any other matters are properly presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting, including, among other things,
consideration of a motion to adjourn the Annual Meeting to another time or place (for the purpose of soliciting additional
proxies or otherwise), the persons named as proxies will have discretion to vote on those matters in accordance with their best
judgment. We do not currently anticipate that any other matters will be raised at the Annual Meeting.
Q: Can I change or revoke my vote?
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
A: If you are a beneficial owner, you may change your proxy instructions at any time before your proxy is voted at the Annual
Meeting, subject to any rules or procedures your broker, trustee or nominee may have,.
If you are a stockholder of record, there are two ways you can change your vote. Before your shares are voted at the Annual
Meeting, you can file with Autodesk's General Counsel a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy card, in either
case dated later than the prior proxy card relating to the same shares. Alternatively, you can attend the Annual Meeting and vote
in person. (Simply attending the Annual Meeting without actually voting will not revoke a proxy). A stockholder of record that
has voted on the Internet or by telephone may also change that vote by subsequently making a timely and valid Internet or
telephone vote.
If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, there are two ways you can change your vote. You can submit new
voting instructions to your broker, trustee or nominee. Alternatively, if you have obtained a legal proxy from the broker, trustee
or nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares, you can attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person.
Any written notice of revocation or subsequent proxy card must be received by Autodesk's General Counsel before the vote at
the Annual Meeting. Such written notice of revocation or subsequent proxy card should be hand-delivered to Autodesk's
General Counsel or sent to Autodesk, Inc., 111 McInnis Parkway, San Rafael, California 94903, Attention: General Counsel.
Q: Who will bear the costs of soliciting votes for the Annual Meeting?
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
A: Autodesk will bear all expenses of this solicitation, including the cost of preparing and mailing these proxy materials.
Autodesk may reimburse brokerage firms, custodians, nominees, fiduciaries and other persons representing beneficial owners
of Common Stock for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation material to such beneficial owners. Directors,
officers and employees of Autodesk may also solicit proxies in person or by other means of communication. Such directors,
officers and employees may be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such solicitation, but will
not receive any additional compensation. Autodesk has engaged the services of AST Phoenix Advisors, a professional proxy
solicitation firm, to aid in the solicitation of proxies from stockholders, including certain brokers, trustees, nominees and other
institutional owners, for a fee of approximately $8,500 plus costs and expenses.
Q: Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
A: We intend to announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting and expect to provide final results in a Current
Report on Form 8-K within four business days of the Annual Meeting. In addition, the results will be posted on our website, at
www.autodesk.com under “Investor Relations.”
