This excerpt taken from the C DEF 14A filed Jun 18, 2009. Q: Is my proxy card confidential? A: In 2006, the board adopted a confidential voting policy as a part of its Corporate Governance Guidelines. Under the policy, all proxies, ballots, and vote tabulations are kept confidential for registered stockholders who request confidential treatment. If you are a registered stockholder and would like your vote kept confidential, please check the appropriate box on your proxy card, or follow the instructions when submitting your vote by telephone or Internet. If you hold your shares in street name or through an employee benefit plan, your vote already receives confidential treatment and you do not need to request confidential treatment in order to maintain the confidentiality of your vote. The confidential voting policy will not apply in the event of a proxy contest or other solicitation based on an opposition proxy statement. For further details regarding this policy, please see the Corporate Governance Guidelines attached as Annex A to the definitive proxy statement for our 2009 annual stockholders meeting, dated March 20, 2009.
