The Board encourages shareholders to vote electronically and to appoint the Chair of the meeting as their proxy with their voting instructions. All valid proxy votes, whether submitted electronically or in hard copy form, will be included in the polls to be taken at the meeting.
The Board regrets being required to take these measures and appreciates shareholders' understanding in these unprecedented circumstances.
Shareholders are encouraged to raise any issues they have with the Company in advance of the meeting.
