Engagement of Proxy Solicitor

 

Subsequent to filing the Proxy Statement for our 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May 3, 2018, the Company engaged Okapi Partners, an independent proxy solicitation firm, to assist in soliciting proxies on our behalf. The Company has agreed to pay Okapi Partners a fee of $10,000, plus costs and expenses, for these services. Other costs of soliciting votes in connection with the Proxy Statement have been, or will be, paid by the Company.  In accordance with the regulations of the SEC and the NYSE, the Company will reimburse banks, brokerage firms, investment advisors and other custodians, nominees, fiduciaries and service bureaus for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding soliciting material to beneficial owners of the Company’s Common Stock and obtaining their proxies or voting instructions. Certain of our directors, officers or employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by electronic communications, but they will not receive any additional compensation for doing so.
