A "broker non-vote" occurs when a broker (such as a custodian or bank) holding shares for a beneficial owner returns a signed proxy but does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

Based on the votes set forth above, each of the foregoing persons was duly elected to serve as a director for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2022 and until his or her respective successor has been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal.
