This excerpt taken from the BNVI DEF 14A filed Apr 22, 2008. HOUSEHOLDING
OF PROXY MATERIALS
The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and
intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery
requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with
respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by
delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those
stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as
householding, potentially means extra convenience
for stockholders and cost savings for companies.
This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are our
stockholders will be householding our proxy
materials. A single proxy statement will be delivered to
multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary
instructions have been received from the affected stockholders.
Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be
householding communications to your address,
householding will continue until you are notified
otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you
no longer wish to participate in householding and
would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and annual
report, please notify your broker, direct your written request
to Bionovo, Inc, Corporate Secretary, 5858 Horton Street,
Suite 375, Emeryville, CA 94608 or contact our Corporate
Secretary at
(510) 601-2000.
Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy
statement at their address and would like to request
householding of their communications should contact
their broker.
