Autodesk employees,
Last week we began mailing materials for the upcoming Autodesk annual stockholder meeting to be held on Thursday, June 18, 2020. If you owned Autodesk shares (not options or unvested restricted stock units) on April 22, 2020, you should receive materials as part of the mailing.  Please note that you likely have received or will receive this information via email rather than regular mail.  The delivery method depends on how you previously elected to receive stockholder materials from Autodesk. 
If you hold your shares in an E*TRADE account, you should have received an email last week with a link to the materials.  Those materials instruct you on how to submit your vote. 
Additionally, a copy of the stockholder materials can be viewed here: Autodesk Definitive Proxy Statement
We encourage you to review this material and cast your vote to approve the proposals.  Regardless of whether you own shares or not, you may review Autodesk’s 2020 Annual Report here: Autodesk Annual Report
If you have any questions, please contact Autodesk Investor Relations at investor.relations@autodesk.com.
Best,
Abhey Lamba
