Questions and Answers about the Annual General Meeting
The following are some questions that you, as a shareholder of International General Insurance Holdings Ltd. (“IGI,” “we” or the “Company”), may have regarding the matters being considered at IGI’s 2026 Annual General Meeting and brief answers to those questions. You are urged to carefully read this Information Circular in its entirety.
| Q: | Who is soliciting my vote? |
| A: | The board of directors of IGI (the “Board”) is soliciting proxies to vote common shares, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Shares”), at IGI’s Annual General Meeting of shareholders, which will take place on Tuesday, August 4, 2026. In connection with this solicitation, we distributed a Proxy Materials Notice to registered holders of our Common Shares on or about June 25, 2026. You may access the materials online by following the instructions in the Proxy Materials Notice. |
| Q: | What items of business will be voted on at the Annual General Meeting? |
| A: | The items of business scheduled to be voted on at the Annual General Meeting are: |
| ● | The election of one Class III director to IGI’s Board for a term of three years; |
| ● | The approval of the re-appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 and authorization for our Board to fix the independent auditor’s remuneration; and |
| ● | Such other business as may properly come before the meeting. |
The audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 will be presented to the Annual General Meeting but do not require a vote. Any other business as may properly come before the meeting will be voted on in person or by proxy at the meeting.
| Q: | How does the Board recommend that I vote? |
| A: | The Board recommends that you vote your shares “FOR” each of the first two proposals listed above. |
| Q: | What shares can I vote? |
| A: | Each of IGI’s Common Shares issued and outstanding as of the close of business on June 10, 2026 (the “Record Date”) for the Annual General Meeting is entitled to be voted on all items being voted upon at the Annual General Meeting. The record date for the Annual General Meeting is the date used to determine both the number of IGI’s Common Shares that are entitled to be voted at the Annual General Meeting and the identity of the shareholders of record and beneficial owners of those Common Shares who are entitled to vote those shares at the Annual General Meeting. On the Record Date for the Annual General Meeting, we had 42,654,198 Common Shares issued and outstanding. This number includes both (1) shares issued and outstanding as well as (2) restricted shares which have not yet vested but whose holders are entitled to vote with respect to such restricted shares. |
You may vote all shares owned by you as of the Record Date for the Annual General Meeting, including (1) shares held directly in your name as the shareholder of record, and (2) shares held for you as the beneficial owner through a broker, trustee or other nominee such as a bank.
3
| Q: | What is the difference between holding shares as a shareholder of record and as a beneficial owner? |
| A: | Voting procedures vary between record holders of shares and beneficial owners of shares. |
Shareholder of Record
If your shares are registered directly in your name with IGI’s transfer agent, Continental, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record, and a Proxy Materials Notice is being sent directly to you by IGI. As the shareholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to IGI management or to vote in person at the meeting. A proxy card will be available for your use by requesting a copy of proxy materials.
Beneficial Owner
If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by another nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name and a Proxy Materials Notice is being forwarded to you together with voting instructions. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, trustee or nominee how to vote and are also invited to attend the Annual General Meeting.
Since a beneficial owner is not the shareholder of record, you may not vote these shares at the virtual meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the broker, trustee or nominee that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote the shares at the meeting. Your broker, trustee or nominee should have provided voting instructions for you to use in directing the broker, trustee or nominee how to vote your shares.
| Q: | How can I attend the Annual General Meeting? |
| A: | You are entitled to attend the virtual Annual General Meeting only if you were an IGI shareholder as of the close of business on June 10, 2026 or you hold a valid proxy for the Annual General Meeting. The Annual General Meeting will be held on Tuesday, August 4, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time, in a virtual meeting format only via the Internet, with no physical in-person meeting. You will be able to attend and participate in the virtual Annual General Meeting online by entering the unique control number found on your Proxy Materials Notice or your proxy card at the meeting center at https://www.cstproxy.com/igi/2026, where you will be able to listen to the Annual General Meeting live and vote. Information on how to vote virtually and enter your control number found on your Proxy Materials Notice or your proxy card at the Annual General Meeting is discussed below. |
| Q: | How can I submit questions for the Annual General Meeting? |
| A: | Shareholders may submit questions until 9:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on August 3, 2026 by emailing Robin.Sidders@iginsure.com. Questions pertinent to meeting matters and that are submitted in accordance with our Rules of Conduct for the Annual General Meeting (available on our website at www.iginsure.com) will be answered after the meeting and posted to our website at www.iginsure.com. Questions and answers may be grouped by topic and substantially similar questions may be grouped and answered once. In order to promote fairness, efficient use of time and in order to ensure all shareholders are responded to, we will respond to up to two questions from a single shareholder. |
| Q: | What if during the check-in time or during the Annual General Meeting I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the virtual meeting website? |
| A: | Beginning 60 minutes prior to the start of and during the virtual Annual General Meeting, we will have technicians ready to assist shareholders with any technical difficulties they may have accessing or hearing the virtual meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support number provided in our Rules of Conduct for the Annual General Meeting (available on our website at www.iginsure.com). |
4
| Q: | How can I vote my shares? |
| A: | You may either vote “For” the nominee to the Board in Proposal No. 1 or you may “Withhold” your vote for the nominee. For Proposal No. 2 you may vote “For” or “Against” or abstain from voting. |
Shareholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name
If you are a shareholder of record as of June 10, 2026, you may vote at the Annual General Meeting by proxy using your proxy card, over the telephone, through the Internet or via a mobile device. Whether or not you plan to attend the virtual Annual General Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend the meeting and vote in person even if you have already voted by proxy.
To vote using the proxy card, simply complete, sign and date the proxy card and submit it promptly in accordance with the instructions therein. If you submit your signed proxy card to us before the Annual General Meeting, we will vote your shares as you direct. Your proxy card must be received by 5:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time on August 3, 2026.
To vote over the telephone, please dial +1 866-894-0536 using a touch-tone phone and follow the recorded instructions. You will be asked to provide the control number from your Proxy Materials Notice or your proxy card. Your telephone vote must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time on August 3, 2026 to be counted.
To vote through the Internet during the virtual Annual General Meeting, please visit https://www.cstproxy.com/igi/2026 and have available the control number included on your Proxy Materials Notice or your proxy card.
To vote through the Internet before the Annual General Meeting, go to https://www.cstproxy.com/igi/2026 to complete an electronic proxy card. You will be asked to provide the control number from your Proxy Materials Notice or your proxy card. Your internet vote must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time on August 3, 2026 to be counted.
To vote via a mobile device, on your smartphone/tablet, open the QR Reader and scan the image in the Proxy Materials Notice or the proxy card. Once the voting site is displayed, enter the 12-digit control number included on your Proxy Materials Notice or your proxy card and vote your shares. Your mobile vote must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time on August 3, 2026 to be counted.
Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank
If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank, or other agent, you should have received the Proxy Materials Notice from that organization rather than from IGI. Simply follow the instructions in the Proxy Materials Notice to ensure that your vote is counted. Alternatively, you may vote by telephone as instructed by your broker or bank.
| Q: | Can I change my vote? |
| A: | You may change your vote at any time prior to the vote at the Annual General Meeting. If you are the shareholder of record, you may change your vote by granting a new proxy bearing a later date (which automatically revokes the earlier proxy) by providing a written notice of revocation to IGI’s Chief Legal and Compliance Officer by mail, which must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on August 3, 2026 prior to your shares being voted in accordance with the earlier proxy, or by attending the Annual General Meeting and voting. Virtual attendance at the meeting will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked unless you specifically so request. For shares you hold beneficially in street name, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your broker, trustee or nominee, or, if you have obtained a legal proxy from your broker or nominee giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the meeting and voting. |
| Q: | Is my vote confidential? |
| A: | Proxy instructions, ballots and voting tabulations that identify individual shareholders are handled in a manner that protects your voting privacy. Your vote will not be disclosed either within IGI or to third parties, except (1) as necessary to meet applicable legal requirements, (2) to allow for the tabulation of votes and certification of the vote and (3) to facilitate a successful proxy solicitation. Occasionally, shareholders provide written comments on their proxy card, which are then forwarded to IGI management. |
5
| Q: | How many shares must be present or represented to conduct business at the Annual General Meeting? |
| A: | A quorum of shareholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if two or more shareholders holding at least a majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote are present at the meeting in person or represented by proxy. On the record date, there were 42,654,198 Common Shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, Common Shares representing 21,327,100 votes must be present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting to have a quorum. |
Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote in person at the meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement.
| Q: | How are votes counted? |
| A: | For Proposal No. 1, you may either vote “FOR” the nominee to the Board or you may “WITHHOLD” your vote for the nominee. For Proposal No. 2, you may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN.” If you “ABSTAIN,” your abstention is not considered a vote for the purposes of the proposals and therefore has no effect on the adoption of any of the proposals. |
If you provide specific instructions for a given item, your shares will be voted as you instruct on such item. If you sign your proxy card or voting instruction card without giving specific instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Board (“FOR” all of IGI’s nominees to the Board, “FOR” the re-appointment of our independent auditor and authorization for the Board to fix their remuneration, and in the discretion of the proxyholders on any other matters that properly come before the meeting).
If you hold shares beneficially in street name and do not provide your broker with voting instructions, your shares may constitute “broker non-votes.” Generally, broker non-votes occur on a matter when a broker is not permitted to vote on that matter without instructions from the beneficial owner and instructions are not given. In tabulating the voting result for any particular proposal, shares that constitute broker non-votes are not considered entitled to vote on that proposal. Thus, broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of any matter being voted on at the meeting, assuming that a quorum is obtained.
| Q: | What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals? |
| A: | Proposal No. 1 requires a plurality of votes cast, meaning the nominee receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. Proposal No. 2 requires the affirmative “FOR” vote of a majority of votes cast. |
| Q: | Is cumulative voting permitted for the election of directors? |
| A: | No. IGI does not allow you to cumulate your vote in the election of directors. For all matters proposed for shareholder action at the Annual General Meeting, each Common Share issued and outstanding as of the close of business on the record date is entitled to one vote. |
| Q: | What happens if additional matters are presented at the Annual General Meeting? |
| A: | Other than the items of business described in this Information Circular, we are not aware of any business to be acted upon at the Annual General Meeting. If you grant a proxy, the person named as proxyholder, Wasef Jabsheh, or failing him, Walid Jabsheh, or failing him, Pervez Rizvi, each with the power to appoint his substitute, will have the discretion to vote your shares on any additional matters properly presented for a vote at the meeting. If for any unforeseen reason any of our nominees are not available as a candidate for director, the persons named as proxyholders will vote your proxy for such candidate or candidates as may be nominated by the Board, unless the Board chooses to reduce the number of directors serving on the Board pursuant to the Amended and Restated Bye-laws. |
6
| Q: | Why did I receive a Proxy Materials Notice in the mail regarding notice of the Annual General Meeting and the Internet availability of proxy materials instead of a full set of proxy materials? |
| A: | As permitted under Bermuda law and our Amended and Restated Bye-laws, we are able to provide information to our shareholders by publication of an electronic record of such information on our website so long as the notice requirements in Bye-law 23 are met. We have provided notice to our shareholders of the Annual General Meeting and the availability of such related information by mailing them the Proxy Materials Notice. This saves time and costs to the Company and is in line with our environmental commitments to reduce wastage. |
If you would like to receive a paper copy of the proxy materials, you must request one. There is no charge for such documents to be mailed to you. Please make your request for a paper copy as instructed below on or before July 25, 2026 to facilitate a timely delivery. You may also request that you receive paper copies of all future proxy materials from the Company.
By telephone please call 1-888-266-6791, or
By logging on to https://www.cstproxy.com/igi/2026 or
By email at: proxy@continentalstock.com
Please include the company name and your control number in the subject line. The Company shall provide paper copies of the requested documents to you within seven days of receipt of your request.
| Q: | Who will bear the cost of soliciting votes for the Annual General Meeting? |
| A: | IGI is making this solicitation and will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and distributing the Proxy Materials Notice and soliciting votes. We have engaged Sodali & Co LLC (“Sodali”) to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Annual General Meeting. We will pay Sodali a customary fee in respect of the Annual General Meeting. |
In addition to the mailing of the Proxy Materials Notice, the solicitation of proxies or votes may be made in person, by telephone or by electronic communication by our directors, officers and employees, who will not receive any additional compensation for such solicitation activities. Upon request, we will reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for forwarding proxy and solicitation materials to shareholders.
| Q: | Where can I find the voting results of the Annual General Meeting? |
| A: | We intend to publish final voting results in a report on Form 6-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). |
| Q: | Where can I find additional information relating to the Annual General Meeting? |
| A: | Our Rules of Conduct for the Annual General Meeting are available on our website at www.iginsure.com. |
| Q: | Who should I contact if I have any questions about the proxy materials or voting? |
| A: | If you have any questions about the proxy materials or if you need assistance submitting your proxy or voting your shares or need additional copies of this Information Circular or the enclosed proxy card, you should contact Sodali, the proxy solicitation agent for IGI, at 333 Ludlow Street, 5th Floor, South Tower, Stamford, CT 06902. You may call Sodali at 1-800-662-5200 (toll-free within the United States) or at 1-203-658-9400 (outside the United States) or email Sodali at: IGIC.info@investor.sodali.com. |

You may change your vote at any time prior to the vote at the Annual General Meeting. If you are the shareholder of record, you may change your vote by granting a new proxy bearing a later date (which automatically revokes the earlier proxy) by providing a written notice of revocation to IGI’s Chief Legal and Compliance Officer by mail, which must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on August 3, 2026 prior to your shares being voted in accordance with the earlier proxy, or by attending the Annual General Meeting and voting. Virtual attendance at the meeting will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked unless you specifically so request. For shares you hold beneficially in street name, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your broker, trustee or nominee, or, if you have obtained a legal proxy from your broker or nominee giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the meeting and voting.
Solicitation
The cost of preparing and soliciting proxies will be borne by the Company. We have engaged Sodali to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Annual General Meeting. We will pay Sodali a customary fee in respect of the Annual General Meeting. Solicitation will be made primarily by mail and the Internet, but Shareholders may be solicited by telephone, e-mail, or personal contact.
Electronic Delivery
For Shareholders who hold their shares through a bank or brokerage account, instead of receiving future copies of the Proxy Materials Notice by mail, Shareholders can elect to receive an e-mail that will contain the Proxy Materials Notice. Opting to receive your Proxy Materials Notice online will save the Company the cost of producing and mailing the Proxy Materials Notice to your home or business.

Board Structure and Governance
Classification of Directors
Our Board is comprised of seven directors. Our Amended and Restated Bye-laws provide that our Board is divided into three classes designated as Class I, Class II and Class III with as nearly equal a number of directors in each group as possible. At each annual general meeting, members of the class of directors whose term expires at that annual general meeting shall be elected for a three-year term. A director will hold office until the annual general meeting for the year in which his or her term expires, subject to his or her office being vacated in accordance with our Amended and Restated Bye-laws.
Thomas Collett and David King are currently serving as Class I Directors with terms expiring at our 2027 Annual General Meeting, Wanda Mwaura and Andrew Poole are currently serving as Class II Directors with terms expiring at our 2028 Annual General Meeting, and Wasef Jabsheh, Walid Jabsheh and Michael Gray are currently serving as Class III Directors with terms expiring at our 2026 Annual General Meeting. The term of Michael Gray will expire at the 2026 Annual General Meeting and our Board has nominated him for a new 3-year term which will expire at the 2029 Annual General Meeting. In accordance with Bermuda law and our Amended and Restated Bye-laws, Wasef Jabsheh and Walid Jabsheh have been re-appointed as Class III Directors with a 3-year term which will expire at the 2029 Annual General Meeting.
The directors are elected with a plurality of the votes cast by the shareholders and there is no cumulative voting for elections of directors, provided that (1) Wasef Jabsheh (or upon his death or incapacitation, W. Jabsheh Investment Company Ltd.) (“Jabsheh”), is entitled to appoint and classify two directors (each a “Jabsheh Director”) for so long as (a) Jabsheh, members of Wasef Jabsheh’s immediate family and/or his natural lineal descendants or a trust or other similar entity established for the exclusive benefit of Wasef Jabsheh and his immediate family and natural lineal descendants (the “Jabsheh Family”) and/or their affiliates own at least 10% of our issued and outstanding common shares and (b) Jabsheh is a shareholder of the Company, (2) Jabsheh is entitled to appoint and classify one director (a “Jabsheh Director”) for so long as (a) Jabsheh, the Jabsheh Family and/or their affiliates own at least 5% (but less than 10%) of our issued and outstanding common shares and (b) Jabsheh is a shareholder of the Company and (3) the remaining directors are elected by the shareholders.

Audit and Risk Committee
The members of IGI’s audit and risk committee are David King, Wanda Mwaura and Andrew Poole. Wanda Mwaura is the chair of the audit and risk committee. The audit and risk committee must be composed exclusively of “independent directors,” as defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC. Each of the members of our audit and risk committee is independent under SEC and Nasdaq rules. Wanda Mwaura serves as the audit committee financial expert (within the meaning of SEC regulations). The Company has adopted an audit committee charter which sets forth the requirements for audit and risk committee members and the responsibilities of the audit and risk committee.
The audit and risk committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the auditors, review of the results and scope of the audit and other accounting related services and review of our accounting practices and systems of internal accounting and disclosure controls. The audit and risk committee pre-approves auditing services and permitted non-audit services to be performed for the Company by the independent auditor. The audit and risk committee also reviews the independence and quality control procedures of the auditors and the experience and qualifications of the auditor’s senior personnel that are providing audit services to the Company. The audit and risk committee’s duties include meeting with management and the auditors in connection with the annual audit, overseeing the internal auditor or internal audit function, and reviewing with management the risk assessment and risk management policies of the company and the voluntary earnings press releases.
The audit and risk committee may delegate to the chair of the audit and risk committee, any of the members of the audit and risk committee, or any subcommittee, the responsibility and authority for any particular matter within its powers and authority. However, subcommittees do not have the authority to engage independent legal counsel, accounting experts or other advisors unless expressly granted such authority by the audit and risk committee.
On March 18, 2026, the Board of Directors changed the name of the committee to Audit and Risk Committee to better reflect the nature of its oversight and responsibilities.
Nominating/Governance Committee
As a foreign private issuer, the Company is not required to have a nominating/governance committee or a nominating/governance committee composed entirely of independent directors. However, IGI’s board of directors has a nominating/governance committee with a majority of independent directors. The members of the nominating/governance committee are Walid Jabsheh, Michael Gray and David King. David King is the chair of the nominating/governance committee. The nominating/governance committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors, advising the board of directors and making recommendations regarding appropriate corporate governance practices, and leading the board of directors in the annual performance evaluation of the board of directors and its committees.
Compensation Committee
As a foreign private issuer, the Company is not required to have a compensation committee or a compensation committee consisting only of independent directors. However, our board of directors has a compensation committee with a majority of independent directors. The members of the Compensation Committee are Walid Jabsheh, Thomas Collett and Andrew Poole. Andrew Poole is the chair of the compensation committee.
The Company has adopted a compensation committee charter which sets forth the requirements for compensation committee members and the responsibilities of the compensation committee. The 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan of the Company is administered by the full board of directors. The purpose of the compensation committee is to review, evaluate and approve compensation paid to our officers and directors. The compensation committee will review director compensation and make recommendations to the board of directors regarding the form and amount of director compensation. Walid Jabsheh does not participate in compensation committee discussions regarding his own compensation.

Codes of Conduct
The Company has adopted a Corporate Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to all of its directors, officers and employees. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics covers, among other things, conflicts of interest, company books and records, use of company property, payments of gifts, corporate opportunities, compliance, extension of credit to officers and directors, confidentiality and employee relations.
The Company has also adopted a Financial Code of Ethics applicable to the Executive Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President — Finance, Controller and certain other officers performing similar functions. The Financial Code of Ethics provides that each officer must act ethically with honesty and integrity (including ethical handling of conflicts of interest), provide full and accurate disclosure in SEC filings and public communications, comply with applicable laws and regulations, act in good faith, responsibly, with due care, competence and diligence, promote honest and ethical behavior by others, respect the confidentiality of information acquired in the course of employment, responsibly use and maintain all assets and resources employed or entrusted to the officer, and promptly internally report violations of this Financial Code to the Chief Legal and Compliance Officer and in the case of the Executive Chairman, President and CEO, and CFO, to the Board of Directors and/or Audit and Risk Committee of the Board of Directors.
Approval of Certain Transactions
Our Amended and Restated Bye-laws provide that the Company shall not take any of the following actions without the approval of a majority of the board of directors, such majority to include the affirmative vote of each Jabsheh Director:
| ● | sell or dispose of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis; |
| ● | enter into any transaction in which one or more third parties acquire or acquires 25% or more of the Company’s common shares; |
| ● | enter into any merger, consolidation, or amalgamation with an aggregate value equal to or greater than $75 million (exclusive of inter-company transactions); |
| ● | alter the size of the board of directors; |
| ● | incur debt in an amount of $50 million (or other equivalent currency) or more; and |
| ● | issue common shares (or securities convertible into common shares) in an amount equal to or greater than 10% of the then issued and outstanding common shares of the Company. |
Board Leadership
Wasef Jabsheh serves as the Executive Chairman of the Board and Walid Jabsheh serves as the President and Chief Executive Officer. Wasef Jabsheh previously served as the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. On June 30, 2023, Wasef Jabsheh resigned from the position of Chief Executive Officer and on July 1, 2023, he was appointed Executive Chairman of the Board, while Walid Jabsheh was appointed President and Chief Executive Officer.
We believe that having Wasef Jabsheh act as our Executive Chairman and Walid Jabsheh act as President and Chief Executive Officer is most appropriate at this time for us because it provides us with consistent and efficient leadership, both with respect to our operations and the leadership of the Board. In particular, having Wasef Jabsheh act as our Executive Chairman and Walid Jabsheh act as President and Chief Executive Officer increases the effectiveness of our Board’s deliberations and the Company’s day-to-day operations, and ensures the consistent implementation of our strategies.
We believe that the separation of the roles of Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, together with the significant responsibilities of the Board’s independent directors, provides an appropriate balance between leadership and independent oversight.
Vote Required
Approval of the election of Michael Gray as a Class III director requires an affirmative vote but does not require a majority of the votes cast at the Annual General Meeting. Votes that are “withheld” are not counted as votes cast for the purposes of the election of director.
Our Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR the approval of the election of Michael Gray as a Class III director as set forth in Proposal No. 1.
