=========================================================================================

 

Any ballot marked 'Abstain' is considered to have been voted. Ballots marked 'Abstain' are considered to have been voted against management's recommendation if management's recommendation is 'For' or 'Against,' and for management’s recommendation if management’s recommendation is ‘Abstain.’ Where management has recommended that shareholders 'Abstain' from voting on a ballot item, a ballot marked '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, 'None' is used to indicate that there is no management recommendation that a shareholder may vote 'For' or 'Against.'

 

Any ballot marked as 'Take No Action' is neither a vote cast for or against management and 'None' is used to represent this.
