WHAT IS CHANGING

We are excited to announce that this year’s Annual Meeting will feature a new and improved voting process for the election of our board of directors. To adapt to modern technologies and streamline our procedures, we have transitioned to an online-only early voting platform through SmartHub. Please note that you will only be able to vote either online via SmartHub or in person at the Annual Meeting on July 18.

This change marks a departure from our past practice of mailing paper ballots. This shift not only aligns with our commitment to sustainability but also offers you a more convenient and accessible way to participate in the election process.

VOTING TIMEFRAME

Voting will open electronically on June 17 and run through July 15.
