WHEN THE Contract Owner HAS COMPLETED VOTING ON THE PROPOSALS, HE/SHE WILL HEAR: "Okay, you've finished voting but your vote has not yet been recorded."
"To hear a summary of how you voted, press 1; To record your vote, Press 2."
IF THE Contract Owner PRESSES 1, TO HEAR A SUMMARY OF THEIR VOTES, HE/SHE WILL HEAR: "Please note your vote will be cast automatically should you decide to hang up during the summary."
"You've elected to vote as follows..." [THEN A PLAYBACK OF THE VOTES COLLECTED FOR EACH PROPOSAL IS HEARD] AFTER THE VOTE PLAYBACK, THE Contract Owner HEARS:
"If this is correct, press 1; Otherwise, press 2. If you'd like to hear the information again press # (pound)."
IF THE CALLER CHOOSES TO RECORD THEIR VOTE (EITHER BEFORE OR AFTER THE SUMMARY IS HEARD), THEY HEAR: "(Okay) Please hold while I record your vote."
THEN THEY HEAR:
"Your vote has been recorded. It's not necessary for you to mail in your voting instruction card or meeting notice.
I'm now going to end this call unless you have another voting instruction card or meeting notice to vote or you want to change your vote. If you need to vote again, press one now."
IF THE Contract Owner PRESSES 2, INDICATING AN INCORRECT VOTE, HE/SHE WILL HEAR: "Okay, lets change your vote." [The system then prompts the voting options again.]
AFTER THE Contract Owner'S VOTE IS RECORDED, IF THEY ELECT TO VOTE ANOTHER PROXY, HE/SHE HEARS:
"Before you can vote, I'll need to validate some information from your voting instruction card or meeting notice. On your card or notice there's a shaded box with a 14 digit number inside. Please enter that number now."
IF THE Contract Owner ELECTS TO END THE CALL, HE/SHE WILL HEAR: "Thank you for voting, goodbye."
