Stockholders of the Company who have previously submitted their proxy or otherwise voted do not need to take any action.

No changes have been made in the proposals to be voted on by stockholders at the Special Meeting. The Company encourages all of its stockholders to read the Proxy Statement, which is available free of charge on the SEC website at www.sec.gov.

During the period of adjournment, the Company will continue to solicit votes from its stockholders with respect to the proposals set forth in the Proxy Statement.
