Holders of record of our ordinary shares or ADSs representing those ordinary shares at the close of business on August 1, 2017 are entitled to vote at the 2017 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and any adjournment or postponement thereof, and are encouraged and cordially invited to attend the 2017 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.
