The Board of Directors of the Company has determined that, in order to protect the health and safety of its shareowners, employees, directors and communities amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company will hold its Annual Meeting in a virtual meeting format only, via live webcast. As such, shareowners will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting in person.

Shareowners of record, as of the close of business on March 12, 2020, the record date, and holders of shares in "street name" on such date, may attend and vote their shares at the Annual Meeting, and ask questions during the Annual Meeting, by entering the control number found on their proxy card, voting instruction form or notice they previously received.
Whether or not they plan to attend the Annual Meeting, the Company urges its shareowners to vote and submit their proxy in advance of the Annual Meeting by one of the methods described in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting.
