PROXY STATEMENT

GENERAL INFORMATION

This proxy statement is furnished by the board of directors (the “Board”) of CNL Lifestyle Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the solicitation by the Board of proxies to be voted at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on December 10, 2014 at the Company’s offices located at CNL Center at City Commons, 450 South Orange Avenue, 13^th Floor, Orlando, Florida 32801 (such meeting, and any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “2014 Annual Meeting”) for the purposes set forth in the accompanying notice of such meeting. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on November 4, 2014 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the 2014 Annual Meeting. This proxy statement, the proxy card and the notice setting forth matters upon which stockholders are entitled to vote are first being mailed to stockholders on or about November 10, 2014.

As of November 4, 2014, there were 325,199,911 shares of common stock of the Company outstanding and entitled to vote. As of the Record Date, officers and directors of the Company had the power to vote, as determined by the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), less than 1% of the outstanding shares of common stock.

Proxy and Voting Procedures

Your vote is important. You can save the Company the expense

of a second mailing by authorizing your proxy promptly.

A proxy card is enclosed for your use. Simply mark your proxy card, date and sign it, and return it in the postage-paid envelope provided. Authorizing your proxy will not limit your right to vote at the 2014 Annual Meeting if you decide to attend in person. If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record, you must obtain a proxy, executed in your favor, from the holder of record to be able to vote at the 2014 Annual Meeting.

All proxies that have been properly authorized and not revoked will be voted at the 2014 Annual Meeting. If you authorize your proxy but do not indicate any voting instructions, the shares represented by that proxy will be voted (i) “FOR ALL” to elect the five (5) nominees for director named herein; and (ii) “FOR” to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PricewaterhouseCoopers”) as the Company’s independent registered certified public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014. With respect to any other business that may properly come before the stockholders for any vote at the 2014 Annual Meeting, your shares will be voted in the discretion of the proxy holder.

Quorum; Required Vote

Each share of common stock outstanding on the Record Date is entitled to one vote on all matters coming before the 2014 Annual Meeting. If a share is represented for any purpose at the 2014 Annual Meeting, it is deemed to be present for quorum purposes and for all other matters as well. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of 50% of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the 2014 Annual Meeting constitutes a quorum. A stockholder may withhold his or her vote in the election of directors or may abstain with respect to each other item submitted for stockholder approval. Withheld votes, abstentions and “broker non-votes” will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum, but will not be counted as votes cast. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of shares held in street name and the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote uninstructed shares on non-routine matters.

1

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes actually cast at the 2014 Annual Meeting is required for the election of each director. Abstentions, broker non-votes and withheld votes will have no effect on the vote for each nominee for director.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the 2014 Annual Meeting is required for the ratification of the Board’s appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers as the Company’s independent registered certified public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014, provided a quorum is present. Abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of the proposal. Because brokers have discretionary authority to vote on routine proposals, there will not be any broker non-votes with respect to the ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent registered certified public accounting firm.

If sufficient votes for approval of any of the matters to be considered at the 2014 Annual Meeting have not been received prior to the meeting date, the Company intends to postpone or adjourn the 2014 Annual Meeting in order to solicit additional votes with respect to that matter. The form of proxy the Company is soliciting requests authority for the proxies, in their discretion, to vote the stockholders’ shares with respect to a postponement or adjournment of the 2014 Annual Meeting. At any postponed or adjourned meeting, the Company will vote any proxies received in the same manner described in this Proxy Statement with respect to the original meeting.

Proxy Authorization by Internet or Telephone

Stockholders of record who live in the United States may authorize proxies by following the “Vote by Phone” instructions on their proxy cards. Stockholders of record with Internet access also may authorize proxies by following the “Vote by Internet” instructions on their proxy cards. The telephone and Internet proxy authorization procedures are designed to authenticate the stockholder’s identity and to allow stockholders to authorize a proxy and confirm that their instructions have been properly recorded. If you have questions about authorizing your proxy by telephone or Internet, call Broadridge Investor Communications Solutions, Inc., the Company’s proxy solicitor (“Broadridge”), toll free at 1-855-737-3180.

Please refer to the enclosed proxy card for instructions on how to authorize your proxy. If you choose not to authorize a proxy by telephone or Internet, please complete, sign and return the paper proxy card in the pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided with this Proxy Statement.

Revocation of Proxies

Any stockholder giving a proxy has the power to revoke it at any time before it is exercised. A proxy may be revoked (1) by delivery of a written statement to the Secretary of the Company stating that the proxy is being revoked, (2) by presentation before or at the 2014 Annual Meeting of a subsequent proxy properly executed by the person executing the prior proxy, or (3) by attendance at the 2014 Annual Meeting and voting in person.

Solicitation Expenses

In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, proxies may be solicited in person and by telephone or facsimile transmission by directors and officers of the Company, or certain employees of CNL Capital Markets Corp., CNL Securities Corp., and affiliates of the Company’s advisor, CNL Lifestyle Advisor Corporation (the “Advisor”), without special compensation therefor. The Company has also retained the services of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. to assist in the solicitation of proxies for an anticipated maximum fee of approximately $14,500, plus reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials

In accordance with the Commission’s rules and regulations, in addition to mailing printed copies of proxy materials to stockholders, the Company is also providing access to these materials via the Internet. As more fully described on the proxy card, stockholders may access and review the Company’s proxy materials, authorize their proxies and/or elect to receive next year’s proxy materials electronically via the web address provided below.

Board Leadership Structure: Board Independence and Role in Risk Oversight

The Board is currently comprised of five directors, with Mr. Seneff serving as the chairman of the Board. The Bylaws allow the roles of chairman of the board and chief executive officer to be separated or combined, and the Board believes that it is appropriate to have these as separate positions at this time on account of the varying strengths, experiences and relationships of each of these individuals in the real estate industry. The chairman, Mr. Seneff, has unique knowledge, experience and relationships with the Board and management and within a broad spectrum of the real estate market, and his continued role as chairman provides significant value to the Company. Mr. Mauldin, the president and chief executive officer, has extensive experience and relationships in the sectors in which the Company acquires and owns real estate properties and the Board believes that these attributes are complementary to the strengths of Mr. Seneff.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, each of Dr. Douglas and Messrs. Ford and Woody served as Independent Directors. Although the Company’s shares are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the Company applies the exchange’s standards of independence to its own outside directors and for the year ended December 31, 2013, each of Dr. Douglas Messrs. Ford and Woody met the definition of “independent” under Section 303A.02 of the New York Stock Exchange listing standards.

The Audit Committee focuses on the adequacy of the Company’s enterprise risk management and risk mitigation processes. The Audit Committee meets regularly to discuss the strategic direction and the issues and opportunities facing the Company in light of trends and developments in the REIT industry and general business environment. Throughout the year, the Board provides guidance to management regarding the Company’s strategy and helps to refine its operating plans to implement the Company’s strategy. Annually, the Audit Committee holds an extensive meeting with senior management, PricewaterhouseCoopers and internal audit dedicated to reviewing the categories of risk the Company faces, including any risk concentrations and risk interrelationships, as well as the likelihood of occurrence, the potential impact of those risks and mitigating measures. The involvement of the Audit Committee in setting the Company’s business strategy is critical to the determination of the types and appropriate levels of risk undertaken by the Company. The Board’s role in risk oversight of the Company is consistent with the Company’s leadership structure, with the president and chief executive officer and other members of senior management having responsibility for assessing and managing the Company’s risk exposure, and the Board and the Audit Committee providing oversight of risk management efforts.

Compensation of Independent Directors

During the year ended December 31, 2013, each Independent Director received a $45,000 annual fee for services as well as $2,000 per Board meeting attended, whether they participated by telephone or in person. Each Independent Director serving on the Audit Committee received $2,000 per Audit Committee meeting attended, whether they participated by telephone or in person. The Audit Committee Chair received an annual retainer of $10,000 in addition to Audit Committee meeting fees and fees for meeting with the independent accountants as a representative of the Audit Committee. Independent Directors are also paid $2,000 per day for their participation in certain meetings and other Company related business outside of normally scheduled Board meetings. No additional compensation is paid for attending the 2014 Annual Meeting.

The following table sets forth the compensation earned or paid to the Company’s directors during the year ended December 31, 2013 for their service on the Board and Audit Committee (where applicable):

Name	Fees Earned or Paid in Cash		Total
James M. Seneff, Jr.		None		None
Thomas K. Sittema		None		None
Bruce Douglas	$	69,000	$	69,000
Adam Ford	$	81,000	$	81,000
Robert J. Woody	$	69,000	$	69,000

Board Meetings During Fiscal Year 2013

The Board met seven times during 2013. Each member of the Board attended 100% of the total Board meetings with the exception of Mr. Seneff. During 2013, the Audit Committee held five meetings and each member of the Audit Committee attended 100% of the total meetings. Although the Company does not have a policy on director attendance at the 2014 Annual Meeting of stockholders, directors are encouraged to do so. All the directors of the Company attended the 2013 annual meeting of stockholders with the exception of Mr. Woody.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Company has a standing Audit Committee, the members of which are selected by the Board each year. During 2013, the Audit Committee was comprised of Dr. Bruce Douglas and Messrs. Adam Ford, and Robert, J. Woody, each of whom was determined to be “independent” under the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange referenced above. The Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is posted on the Company’s website at http://www.cnlifestylereit.com. The Audit Committee assists the Board by providing oversight responsibilities relating to:

• The integrity of financial reporting;

• The independence, qualifications and performance of the Company’s independent auditors;

• The systems of internal controls;

• The performance of the Company’s internal audit function;

• Compliance with management’s audit, accounting and financial reporting policies and procedures; and

• Company risk management.

In addition, the Audit Committee engages and is responsible for the compensation and oversight of the Company’s independent auditors and internal auditors. In performing these functions, the Audit Committee meets periodically with the independent auditors, management and internal auditors (including private sessions) to review the results of their work. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Audit Committee met four times with the Company’s independent auditors, internal auditors and management to discuss the annual and quarterly financial reports prior to filing them with the Commission. The Audit Committee has determined that Mr. Ford is an “audit committee financial expert” under the rules and regulations of the Commission for purposes of Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Currently, the Company does not have a nominating committee, and therefore, does not have a nominating committee charter. The Board is of the view that it is not necessary to have a nominating committee at this time because the Board is composed of only five members, including a majority of “independent directors” (as defined under the New York Stock Exchange listing standards), and each director is responsible for identifying and recommending qualified Board candidates. The Board does not have a formal policy regarding diversity. The Board considers many factors with regard to each candidate, including judgment, integrity, diversity, prior professional experience, background, the interplay of the candidate’s experience with the experience of other Board members, the extent to which the candidate would be desirable as a member of the Audit Committee, and the candidate’s willingness to devote substantial time and effort to Board responsibilities.

Company stockholders may recommend individuals to the Board for consideration as potential director candidates by timely submitting their names and appropriate background and biographical information to the Company’s Secretary at the Company’s offices. Assuming that the appropriate information has been timely provided, the Board will consider these candidates substantially in the same manner as it considers other Board candidates it identifies.

Currently, the Company does not have a compensation committee because it does not have any employees and does not separately compensate its executive officers for their services as officers. At such time, if any, as the Company’s shares of common stock are listed on a national securities exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market or the Company has employees to whom it directly provides compensation, the Company will form a compensation committee, the members of which will be selected by the full Board each year.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors, certain officers and persons who own more than 10% of the Company’s equity securities that are registered under the Exchange Act, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership on Forms 3, 4 and 5 with the Commission (such persons hereinafter referred to as “Reporting Persons”).

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The Advisor and certain of the Advisor’s affiliates receive fees and compensation in connection with the Company’s stock offerings and in connection with the acquisition, management and sale of its assets. The related-party fees and compensation incurred by the Company have been reviewed by its Independent Directors, who have determined that such transactions are fair and reasonable and are on terms and conditions not less favorable to the Company than those available from unaffiliated third parties.

Certain directors and officers of the Company hold similar positions with the Advisor and CNL Securities Corp. (the “Managing Dealer”), which served as the managing dealer for the Company’s common stock offerings. The Company’s chairman of the Board indirectly owns a controlling interest in CNL and the Managing Dealer. The Advisor, the Predecessor Advisor and the Managing Dealer received fees and compensation in connection with the Company’s stock offerings and the acquisition, management and sale of the Company’s assets.

Pursuant to an advisory agreement between the Company and the Advisor (the “Advisory Agreement”), the Advisor and certain affiliates are entitled to receive fees and compensation in connection with the acquisition, management and sale of the Company’s assets, as well as the refinancing of debt obligations of the Company or its subsidiaries and an asset management fee based on the Company’s real estate asset value as defined in the Advisory Agreement. In addition, the Advisor and its affiliates are entitled to reimbursement of actual costs incurred on behalf of the Company in connection with the Company’s organizational, offering, acquisition and operating activities.

Policies Regarding Transactions with Certain Affiliates

Item 404 of the Commission’s Regulation S-K requires disclosure by the Company of any transaction between the Company and any related persons the amount of which exceeds $120,000 in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Related parties include any executive officers, directors, director nominees, beneficial owners of more than 5% of the Company’s voting securities, immediate family members of any of the foregoing persons, and any firm, corporation or other entity in which any of the foregoing persons is employed and in which such person has 10% or greater beneficial ownership interest.

In order to reduce or eliminate certain potential conflicts of interest, the Charter contains, and/or the Board has adopted written restrictions relating to (i) transactions between the Company and its Advisor or its affiliates, (ii) certain future offerings, and (iii) allocation of properties and loans among certain affiliated entities. These restrictions include the following:

Provision of goods and services – No goods or services will be provided by the Advisor or its affiliates to the Company except for transactions in which the Advisor or its affiliates provide those goods or services in accordance with the Charter, or, if a majority of the Company’s directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors) not otherwise interested in such transactions approve such transactions as fair and reasonable and on terms and conditions to the Company than those available from unaffiliated third parties.

Purchase or lease of properties – The Company will not purchase or lease properties from the Advisor, the directors or any affiliate without the determination by a majority of the directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors) not otherwise interested in such transaction that such transaction is fair and reasonable to the Company and at a price no greater than the cost of the asset to the Advisor, director or affiliate unless there is substantial justification for any amount that exceeds such cost and such excess amount is determined to be reasonable. In no event shall the Company acquire any such asset at an amount in excess of its current value. Further, the Company will not sell or lease properties to the Advisor, the directors or affiliates unless a majority of the directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors) not otherwise interested in such transaction determine the transaction is fair and reasonable to the Company.

Loans to affiliates – The Company will not make loans to its Sponsor, the Advisor, the directors, or any affiliates thereof, except (i) mortgage loans subject to the restrictions governing mortgage loans in the Charter or (ii) to its subsidiaries or to ventures or partnerships in which the Company holds a controlling interest. Any loans to the Company by the Advisor or its affiliates must be approved by a majority of the directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors) not otherwise interested in such transaction as fair, competitive, and commercially reasonable, and no less favorable to the Company than comparable loans between unaffiliated parties.

14

Voting of shares – With respect to shares owned by the Advisor, the Company’s directors, or any affiliate thereof, neither the Advisor, nor the Company’s directors, nor any of their affiliates may vote or consent on matters submitted to the Company’s stockholders regarding the removal of the Advisor, directors, or any affiliate thereof or any transaction between the Company and any of them. In determining the requisite percentage in interest of shares necessary to approve a matter on which the Advisor, directors, and any affiliate thereof may not vote or consent, any shares owned by any of them shall not be included.

Suitable investment opportunities - Certain of the Company’s directors and executive officers also serve as directors and executive officers of CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc., a public, non-traded company that has elected to be taxed as a REIT sponsored by CNL Financial Group, LLC., an affiliate of CNL. Although the Company has different investment objectives than CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc., an investment opportunity may be suitable for both the Company and CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc. The Company’s Board and the Advisor have agreed that, in the event an investment opportunity is presented to both the Company’s Advisor’s Investment Committee and the investment committee of the advisor for CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc. and it is determined that the opportunity may be suitable for both the Company CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc. and for which both entities have sufficient uninvested funds, the investment opportunity will be offered to the entities on an alternating basis as follows:

• The first investment opportunity that meets this criteria will be first offered to the Company;

• The second opportunity that meets this criteria will be first offered to CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc. (whether or not the Company passed on the first investment opportunity, and whether or not CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc., accepted an investment in the first investment opportunity); and

• Thereafter, each offer of any investment opportunities will alternate on the foregoing basis. It shall be the duty of the Board, including the Independent Directors, to ensure that these policies are applied fairly to the Company.

This policy will continue in effect until such time as the Company’s Sponsor, CNL, no longer owns or controls the Company’s Advisor and the advisor of CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc.

Certain public or private entities affiliated with the Company’s Sponsor, CNL, are bound by conflict resolution procedures that may impact the investments that are available to the Company. In particular, certain of these public and private entities affiliated with CNL, some of which invest in assets similar to those in which the Company may invest, require that if an investment opportunity becomes available which is suitable for such sponsor- and/or CNL-affiliated entities, then the entity which has had the longest period of time elapse since it was offered an investment opportunity will first be offered the investment opportunity. For purposes of this conflict resolution procedure for these other entities, an investment opportunity will be considered “offered” when the opportunity is presented to the applicable board of directors for its consideration. In addition to various other factors, the determination as to whether or not an investment opportunity is suitable for more than one program will be determined based on the effect of the acquisition both on diversification of each program’s investments by types of properties and geographic area, and on diversification of the tenants of the properties, the anticipated cash flow of each program, the size of the investment, the amount of funds available to each program, and the length of time such funds have been available for investment. A subsequent development regarding the investment opportunity, such as a delay in the closing of a property or a delay in the construction of a property, may cause any such investment to be more appropriate for an entity other than the entity which committed to make the investment. Although neither the Company nor its Advisor are bound by these conflict resolution procedures, the Company and its Advisor may be restricted by such procedures.

PROPOSAL II

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT

REGISTERED CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

PricewaterhouseCoopers acted as the Company’s independent registered certified public accounting firm to audit the Company’s books and records for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. PricewaterhouseCoopers reports directly to the Company’s Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has recommended to the Board of Directors that PricewaterhouseCoopers be appointed as the Company’s independent registered certified public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014. Upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors has approved the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers as the Company’s independent registered certified public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.

15

Stockholder ratification of the appointment of auditors requires a majority of the votes cast. Any shares not voted, by abstention, broker non-vote or by not submitting a proxy, have no impact on the outcome of the proposal.

Although not required by law or the Company’s governance documents, the Company believes ratification of this appointment is good corporate practice because the audit of the Company’s books and records is a matter of importance to the Company’s stockholders. If the Company’s stockholders do not ratify the appointment, the Company’s Audit Committee will reconsider the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers, but still may elect to retain them. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may change the appointment at any time if it determines that such a change would be in the Company’s best interest and the best interest of the Company’s stockholders.

Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers are expected to be present at the 2014 Annual Meeting. They will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to respond to questions from the Company’s stockholders.

The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” ratification of

the appointment PricewaterhouseCoopers as the Company’s independent registered

certified public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.

Auditor Fees

PricewaterhouseCoopers serves as the Company’s principal accounting firm and audited the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The following table sets forth the aggregate fees billed by PricewaterhouseCoopers for 2013 and 2012 for audit and non-audit services (as well as all “out-of-pocket” costs incurred in connection with these services) and are categorized as Audit Fees, Audit-Related Fees, Tax Fees and All Other Fees. The nature of the services provided in each such category is described following the table (amounts in thousands).

	Year Ended December 31,
	2013		2012
Audit fees	$	888	$	858
Audit-related fees		—		—
Tax fees		855		704
All other fees		—		—
Total fees	$	1,743	$	1,562

Audit Fees – Consists of professional services rendered in connection with the annual audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly reviews of the Company’s interim financial statements included in the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Audit fees also include fees for services performed by PricewaterhouseCoopers that are closely related to the audit and in many cases could only be provided by the Company’s independent auditors. Such services include consents related to the Company’s registration statements, assistance with, and review of, other documents filed with the Commission and accounting advice on completed transactions.

Audit-Related Fees – Consists of services related to audits of properties acquired, due diligence services related to contemplated property acquisitions and accounting consultations. There were no professional services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers that would be classified as audit-related fees during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Tax Fees – Consists of services related to corporate tax compliance, including review of corporate tax returns, review of the tax treatments for certain expenses and tax due diligence relating to acquisitions.

16

All Other Fees – There were no professional services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers that would be classified as other fees during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit Services

Under the Company’s Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent auditors in order to assure that the provisions of such services do not impair the auditor’s independence. The policy, as described below and set forth in the Audit Committee Charter sets forth conditions and procedures for such pre-approval of services to be performed by the independent auditor and utilizes both a framework of general pre-approval for certain specified services and specific pre-approval for all other services.

The annual audit services, as well as all audit-related services (assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the auditor’s review of the financial statements or that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor), requires the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee may, however, grant general pre-approval for other audit services, which are those services that only the independent auditor reasonably can provide (such as comfort letters or consents). The Audit Committee has pre-approved all tax services and may grant general pre-approval for those permissible non-audit services that it has classified as “all other services” because it believes such services are routine and recurring services, and would not impair the independence of the auditor.

The fee amounts for all services to be provided by the independent auditor are established annually by the Audit Committee, and any proposed service fees exceeding approved levels will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Requests to provide services that require specific approval by the Audit Committee are submitted to the Audit Committee by the independent auditor, the chief financial officer and the chief executive officer, and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, the request is consistent with the Commission’s rules on auditor independence.

OTHER MATTERS

The Board does not know of any matters to be presented at the 2014 Annual Meeting other than those stated herein. If any other business should come before the 2014 Annual Meeting, the person(s) named in the enclosed proxy will vote thereon in their discretion.
