How can I directly nominate a director for election to the board at the 2007 annual meeting?

 

According to Olin’s By-laws, if you are a shareholder you may directly nominate an individual for election to the board if you deliver a written notice of the nomination to Olin’s Secretary no later than January 27, 2007. Your notice must include:

 

  ·   your name and address;

 

  ·   the name and address of the person you are nominating;

 

  ·   a statement that you are entitled to vote at the annual meeting and intend to appear at the annual meeting in person, or by proxy, to make the nomination;

 

  ·   a description of arrangements or understandings between you and others, if any, pursuant to which you are making the nomination;

 

  ·   such other information about the nominee as would be required in a proxy statement filed under the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proxy rules; and

 

  ·   the written consent of the nominee to actually serve as a director, if elected.

 

Although a shareholder may directly nominate an individual for election as a director, the board is not required to include such nominee in the proxy statement.
