Additional Communication Option for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders
Meeting Date: Thursday, May 21, 2020

2020 has been anything but typical. So far, it’s taught us to be more agile, more alert, and even quicker to respond to the needs of our customers and communities. This year has also given us many hurdles to overcome. We are learning new ways to work and defining a different customer experience. And as our Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) nears, we continue to reinvent the way we do things. Therefore, in light of the novel coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19) and to support the health and well-being of our employees, shareholders and community, we encourage all shareholders to participate in this year’s Annual Meeting by computer and telephone. See instructions below. However, if you prefer, you may still attend the Annual Meeting in person.
