Your vote is vital - and it will not be cast unless you act.* The Board recommends that shareholders vote FOR proposals 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 and AGAINST proposals 6-9.
Enclosed for your information is a letter to our shareholders from the Company's directors, Lee Raymond, Presiding Director, and Bill Weldon, Chairman of the Governance Committee, regarding why they:
• | Strongly endorse the re-election all of the Firm's directors, including all of the members of the Board's Risk Policy Committee and Audit Committee; |
and
• | Recommend that shareholders vote against the current proposal to split the Chairman and CEO roles. |
We hope you find this letter informative and useful.
