Dear Shareholder:

We revised the proxy card for shareholders to use to vote in conjunction with our 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (“Meeting”) to take place on May 3, 2017. The sample proxy card previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 21, 2017, the proxy card previously mailed to shareholders (including to 401(k) participants) and the voting options previously provided at www.proxyvote.com for the Meeting provided voting options with respect to the election of directors that were inconsistent with the majority voting standard which we adopted when we amended our By-laws in February 2017. Consistent with the majority voting standard, the revised proxy card gives you the option to vote for, against or abstain from voting on each director. The majority vote requirement is accurately described in our proxy statement. The changes to the proxy card only impact the election of directors. There are no changes to the voting for the other proposals up for consideration at the Meeting.

We have included a revised proxy card with this letter and have revised the voting options at www.proxyvote.com. If you have not yet voted, please discard the previously provided proxy card and use the enclosed revised proxy card to vote your shares by mail, or follow the instructions on the revised proxy card to vote via the internet or by telephone. Even if you have already voted, we encourage you to revote by using the enclosed revised proxy card or instructions to vote via the internet or by telephone. As stated in the proxy statement, you may also vote in person, but we encourage you to vote promptly, whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting.

If you have already voted or you continue to use the prior proxy card, a vote for a director indicated as “Withhold” on the prior proxy card or other voting method will be treated as an “Against” vote for all purposes at the Meeting.

If you have any questions, or need assistance in voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitor:

D.F. King & Co.

Toll-free: (888) 625-2588

As always, your vote is important, and we appreciate your attention to this matter. We apologize for any inconvenience.
