Dear Fellow Shareholder:

We have previously sent you proxy materials for the special meeting. According to our records, however, we have not yet received your vote.

Your vote is important , no matter how many or how few shares you may own. To make sure your shares are counted, please vote TODAY by telephone, via the Internet, or by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the envelope provided. An unvoted share will have the effect of a vote against the merger.

Your Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote FOR Proposals 1, 2 and 3 described in the proxy statement, including the proposed merger. In addition, ISS Proxy Advisory Services – an independent proxy advisory firm – has recommended that shareholders vote FOR Proposals 1, 2 and 3, as well.
