Any ballot marked 'Abstain' is considered to have been voted. Ballots marked 'Abstain' are considered to be have been voted against management's recommendation, regardless of whether the recommendation is 'For' or 'Against,' except where management has made no recommendation or has recommended that shareholders 'Abstain.'

Where management has recommended that shareholders 'Abstain' from voting on a ballot item: 1) a ballot market 'Abstain' is considered to have been voted for management's recommendation to 'Abstain' and 2) a ballot voted 'For" or 'Against' is considered to have been voted against management's recommendation to 'Abstain.'

Where management has made no recommendation on a ballot item, the abbreviation "N/A" is used to denote that there is no applicable recommendation compared to which a vote may be 'For' or 'Against' the recommendation of management.
