Accordingly, thirteen directors are to be elected at the 2023 Annual Meeting to hold office until the next annual meeting and until their successors have been elected. AEP&#8217;s Bylaws provide that the number of directors of AEP shall be such number, not less than 9 nor more than 17, as shall be determined from time to time by resolution of the Board.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:22.5pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Twelve of the thirteen nominees were nominated by the Board on the recommendation of the Committee on Directors and Corporate Governance (the Corporate Governance Committee) following an individual evaluation of each nominee&#8217;s qualifications and 2022 performance. Ms. Sloat was elected by the Board, effective January 1, 2023, and was nominated following an evaluation of her qualifications. The proxies named on the proxy card or their substitutes will vote for the Board&#8217;s nominees, unless instructed otherwise. Mr. David Anderson resigned from the Board on June 21, 2022, after extending his service on the Board beyond AEP&#8217;s normal retirement age for directors in order to aid in the transition following the departure of two directors in early 2022 and the appointment of two new directors (Messrs. Fowke and Von Thaer) in February 2022. All of the Board&#8217;s nominees were elected by the shareholders at the 2022 annual meeting, except for Mses. James and Sloat. Ms. Sloat was elected to the Board upon her appointment as chief executive officer of the Company effective January 1, 2023, and was nominated following an evaluation of her qualifications. Ms. James was elected by the Board following input from a director search firm, which was paid a fee to identify and evaluate potential Board members. Some members of the Corporate Governance Committee interviewed Ms. James and the Corporate Governance Committee reviewed her qualifications and recommended her election to the full board. We do not expect any of the nominees will be unable to stand for election or be unable to serve if elected. If a vacancy in the slate of nominees occurs before the meeting, the proxies may be voted for another person nominated by the Board or the number of directors may be reduced accordingly.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:22.5pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR each of the director nominees below.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Biographical Information</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">.&#160;The following brief biographies of the nominees include their principal occupations, ages on the date of this proxy statement, accounts of their business experience and names of certain companies of which they are directors.

Each director lists all the companies and charitable organizations that he or she, or an immediate family member, has a relationship with as a partner, trustee, director or officer, and indicates whether that entity made or received payments from AEP. The Company reviews its financial records to determine the amounts paid to or received from those entities. A list of the entities and the amounts AEP paid to or received from those entities is provided to the Corporate Governance Committee. Utilizing this information, the Corporate Governance Committee evaluates, with regard to each director, whether the director has any material relationship with AEP or any of its subsidiaries and also confirms that none of these relationships is advisory in nature. The Corporate Governance Committee determines whether the amount of any payments between those entities and AEP could interfere with a director&#8217;s ability to exercise independent judgment. The Corporate Governance Committee also reviews any other relevant facts and circumstances regarding the nature of these relationships to determine whether other factors, regardless of the categorical standards the Board has adopted or under NASDAQ&#8217;s independence standards, might impede a director&#8217;s independence.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">We are an energy company that provides electric service in eleven different states. Any organization that does business in our service territory is served by one of our subsidiaries. Many of our directors live in our service territory or are executives, directors or trustees of organizations that do business in our service area. Most of those organizations purchase electric service from us. However, these organizations purchase electric service from us at tariff rates or at rates obtained through a competitive bid process. Therefore, the Corporate Governance Committee determined that none of those relationships impedes a director&#8217;s independence.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">We make numerous charitable contributions to nonprofit and community organizations and universities in the states where we do business. Again, because many of our directors live in our service territory and are highly accomplished individuals in their communities, our directors are frequently affiliated with many of the same educational institutions, museums, charities and other community organizations. The Corporate Governance Committee reviews charitable contributions made by AEP to organizations with which our directors or their immediate family members are affiliated. The Corporate Governance Committee also reviews contributions made from The American Electric Power Foundation, which was created to support and play an active, positive role in the communities in which we operate by contributing funds to organizations in those communities. The Corporate Governance Committee determined that the Company&#8217;s contributions were not materially influenced by the director&#8217;s relationship with the organization, and therefore none of these relationships conflicts with the interests of the Company or would impair the director&#8217;s independence or judgment.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">As a result of this review, the Board has determined that, other than Mr.&#160;Akins and Ms. Sloat, each of the directors standing for election, including Messrs.

AEP and its employees hold themselves accountable and are always striving to be better. For AEP and its employees, Zero Harm is not an option; it is a mandate we live by. AEP has put tools, training and processes in place to strengthen our safety-first culture and mindset. AEP's focus is on learning from events and developing leading indicators to be even more proactive in preventing harm. One common industry safety metric utilized by AEP to track incidents is the Days Away Restricted or Transferred (DART) rate. A DART event is an event that results in one or more lost days, one or more restricted days or results in an employee transferring to a different job within the Company. DART rate is a mathematical calculation (number of DART events multiplied by 200,000 work hours and divided by total YTD hours worked) that describes the number of recordable injuries per 100 full-time employees.

As a result, the Board regularly engages with senior management in the oversight of environmental issues, including climate change, energy efficiency, renewable energy and technology changes in the industry. As AEP continues to transition its business, the Board works with the senior management team to adjust plans as needed to respond to rapid changes in the industry, including technology and public policy. Management and the Board identify and incorporate significant environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, including climate change impacts, into our business strategy. We believe that our performance on ESG matters is linked to our ability to achieve our strategic objectives over the medium and long-term and create value for our shareholders. For example, in 2020 the Board added the non-emitting generation capacity measure to the long-term incentive plan to encourage management to identify and advance opportunities to accelerate the transformation of the Company's generation resources to a higher percentage of renewable generation to the extent doing so is in keeping with the interests of our customers and shareholders.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">As part of its oversight role, the Board monitors climate risks and reviews opportunities that may be realized with climate change.

The Company&#8217;s total estimated CO2 emissions in 2022 were approximately 52.5 million metric tons, a 65% reduction from the Company&#8217;s 2005 CO2 emissions (inclusive of emission reductions that result from plants that have been sold). AEP has made significant progress in reducing CO2 emissions from its power generation fleet and expects its emissions to continue to decline.

PwC has served as our independent registered public accounting firm starting with the audit for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Proposal to Amend the Company's Bylaws to Eliminate the Supermajority Voting Provisions</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Currently, the Company&#8217;s Bylaws provide that the provisions of Section 7 other than those relating to the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors, and the provisions of Section 16 may be amended or added to by the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the outstanding shares. This proposal seeks to amend the Bylaws to eliminate these supermajority vote provisions in the Bylaws and replace the voting standard with the vote standard of a majority of shares outstanding. These sections relate to the Company&#8217;s current practice of the annual election of directors. The text of the proposed amendment to Section 16 of the Bylaws, marked to show changes from the current Section 16, is included as Exhibit B to this Proxy Statement. If adopted, any provision of the Bylaws could be amended by the shareholders upon the approval of a majority of shares outstanding.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The proposed amendments to the Company&#8217;s Bylaws are the result of the Board&#8217;s ongoing review of our corporate governance principles. As part of its analysis, the Board recognized that supermajority vote requirements are intended to provide protection against potentially self-interested action by minority shareholders. However, while such protections can be beneficial to shareholders, as corporate governance standards have evolved, many investors and commentators now view these greater-than-majority voting provisions as limiting a board&#8217;s accountability to shareholders and the ability of shareholders to effectively participate in corporate governance.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Board of Directors considered the arguments in favor of and against removing these supermajority requirements from the Company&#8217;s Bylaws and determined that removing these requirements is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Because approval of a majority of the voting power of the Company would still be required to effect action under the revised provisions, the Board believes this proposal affords sufficient protection of shareholder interests while being responsive to the prevailing views regarding best corporate governance practices.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Board Recommendation.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Board believes that Proposal 3 is in both the Company and the shareholders&#8217; best interests and will enhance the Company's corporate governance policies. </span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS APPROVED AND RECOMMENDS A VOTE &#8220;FOR&#8221; THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE BYLAWS TO ELIMINATE THE SUPERMAJORITY VOTING PROVISIONS AS SET FORTH IN PROPOSAL 3.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Vote Required for Approval</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The affirmative vote of two-thirds of the Company&#8217;s outstanding common shares is required to approve Proposal 3.

During 2022, we increased our long-term earnings growth guidance to the top half of the range, which increased its midpoint from 6 percent to 6.5 percent and better reflects the strength of our long-term growth prospects. We also progressed on our plan to add new generation to our regulated portfolio, which currently targets the addition of approximately 15 GW of new renewables through 2032. This will help mitigate fuel cost volatility and create a more diverse resource portfolio to benefit our customers as we transition our fleet and progress toward our updated CO2 reduction goals of 80% by 2030 and net-zero by 2045. We have allocated approximately $8.6 billion of direct capital investment over the next five years toward achieving that goal. We will invest another $25.8 billion in our core wires operations during the same period to provide enhanced reliability and system resilience for the benefit of our customers. We believe this capital plan will provide stable, positive returns for our shareholders.

provide more robust compensation data and increase the median revenue and market capitalization to closer to that of AEP. This will reduce or eliminate the need to use regression analysis to provide size relevant compensation comparisons. The Companies that were added include the two large electric utilities that were not already included: PG&amp;E, which has now stabilized after emerging from bankruptcy, and Constellation Energy Corporation, which is a recent spin-off from Exelon Corporation. To further reduce the gap between AEP&#8217;s revenue and market capitalization and that of the Compensation Peer Group, several large, capital intensive general industry companies with predominantly U.S. revenue were added to the compensation peer group.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">These general industry companies are: Delta Air Lines, Inc.; General Dynamics Corporation; 3M Company; Northrop Grumman Corporation; WestRock Company; The Sherwin-Williams Company; and Waste Management, Inc.

Meridian, annually reviews an executive compensation study covering each named executive officer position based on compensation survey information for the Compensation Peer Group. This study benchmarks each of our named executive officer&#8217;s total direct compensation, and each component of this compensation, against the median components of target compensation provided by the Compensation Peer Group to officers serving in similar capacities if sufficient data is available. Because AEP is significantly larger than the 2022 peer group median as measured by both revenue and market capitalization, the HR Committee also considered size adjusted median market data using a revenue regression analysis for the CEO, CFO and EVP Portfolio optimization positions. Since most companies in the compensation peer group do not have a COO position, that position was benchmarked to 60% of salary, 50% of total cash compensation and 30% of total direct compensation of the regressed peer group compensation for the CEO position, which is representative of COO compensation as a percentage of CEO compensation in a broad sample of all U.S. industrial companies. For the General Counsel position, insufficient data was available for regression analysis so the HR Committee primarily considered the peer group median. Mr. Zebula&#8217;s position was benchmarked to the top strategic planning and development executive and insufficient data was available for regression analysis for this match in the compensation peer group, so it was benchmarked to the median of a broader sample, which was all participants submitting compensation data for this position to the Willis Towers Watson 2021 CDB Energy Services Executive Compensation Survey - U.S. </span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#160;</span></div><div

These plants had 3-year net capacity factors of 6 percent or less, meaning they operate only infrequently, and had carbon emissions commensurate with their capacity factors.

During such transitions, retaining and continuing to motivate the Company&#8217;s key executives would be critical to protecting shareholder value. In a change of control situation, outside competitors are more likely to try to recruit key employees away from the Company, and our executive officers may consider other opportunities when faced with uncertainty about retaining their positions.

ASC Topic 718 of the performance shares, restricted stock units (RSUs) and unrestricted shares granted under our Long-Term Incentive Plan. See Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for a discussion of the relevant assumptions used in calculating these amounts. The number of shares realized and the value of the performance shares, if any, will depend on the Company&#8217;s performance during a 3-year performance period. The potential payout can range from 0 percent to 200 percent of the target number of performance shares, plus any dividend equivalents. The value of the performance shares will be based on three measures: a Board approved cumulative operating earnings per share measure (Cumulative EPS 50%), a total shareholder return relative to peer companies (Relative TSR 40%) and a carbon free capacity mix (Carbon Free Capacity 10%). The grant date fair value of the 2022, 2021 and 2020 performance shares that are based on Cumulative EPS was computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 and was measured based on the closing price of AEP&#8217;s common stock on the grant date. The maximum amount payable for the 2022 performance shares that are based on Cumulative EPS measured on the grant date was $7,500,054 for Mr. Akins; $1,350,018 for Ms. Sloat; $109,965 for Ms. Kelly, $1,125,029 for Mr. Feinberg; $974,951 for Mr. Zebula; $974,951 for Mr. Chodak and $1,799,996 for Ms. Barton. The maximum amount payable for the 2022 performance shares that are based on Carbon Free Capacity is equal to $1,500,011 for Mr. Akins; $270,004 for Ms. Sloat; $21,993 for Ms. Kelly; $225,006 for Mr. Feinberg; $194,990 for Mr. Zebula, $194,990 for Mr. Chodak and $359,999 for Ms. Barton. The grant date fair value of the 2022 performance shares that are based on Relative TSR is calculated using a Monte-Carlo model as of the date of grant, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Because the performance shares that are based on Relative TSR are subject to market conditions as defined under FASB ASC Topic 718, they did not have a maximum value on the grant date that differed from the grant date fair values presented in the table. Instead, the maximum value is factored into the calculation of the grant date fair value. The values realized from the 2020 performance shares are included in the Option Exercises and Stock Vested for 2022 table.</span></div><div style="padding-left:24.75pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">(3)</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:8.68pt">The amounts shown in this column reflect annual incentive compensation paid for the year shown. </span></div><div style="padding-left:24.75pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">(4)</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%;padding-left:8.68pt">The amounts shown in this column are attributable to the increase in the actuarial values of each of the named executive officer&#8217;s combined benefits under AEP&#8217;s qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans determined using interest rate and mortality assumptions consistent with those </span></div><div style="height:42.75pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">65</span></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"/><div style="min-height:42.75pt;width:100%"><div><span><br/></span></div></div><div style="padding-left:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">used in the Company&#8217;s financial statements.

The Aircraft Time Sharing Agreement requires Mr. Akins to reimburse the Company for the cost of his personal use of corporate aircraft in accordance with limits set forth in Federal Aviation Administration regulations. Mr. Akins reimbursed the Company all incremental costs incurred in connection with personal flights under the Aircraft Timesharing Agreement including fuel, oil, hangar costs, crew travel expenses, catering, landing fees and other incremental airport fees. Accordingly, no value is shown for these amounts in the Summary Compensation Table. If the aircraft flies empty before picking up or after dropping off Mr. Akins at a destination on a personal flight, the cost of the empty flight is included in the incremental cost for which Mr. Akins reimburses the Company.

AEP successively provides sick pay and then long-term disability benefits for up to two years to employees with a disability that prevents them from returning to their job. Such disability benefits continue for employees that cannot perform any occupation for which they are reasonably qualified generally until the employee reaches age 65. Because disabled participants remain employed by the Company, they continue to vest in long-term incentive awards while they are disabled. AEP treats a participant&#8217;s disability as a termination to the extent required by the regulations issued under Internal Revenue Code Section&#160;409A, but such terminations only trigger the payment of benefits that had previously vested. Employment may be terminated due to disability under a separate definition of employment termination that applies to long-term incentive awards and compensation and benefit programs that may be considered non-qualified deferred compensation under Section&#160;409A of the Internal Revenue Code. However, long-term incentive stock unit awards allow participants terminated due to disability to continue to vest as if their employment had continued so long as they remain continuously disabled.</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#160;</span></div><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Potential Incremental Compensation and Benefits</span></div><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">That Would Have Been Provided as the Result of Employment Termination</span></div><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">as of December&#160;31, 2022 </span></div><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">For Nicholas K.

These scores were multiplied by the closing share price of AEP common stock on the vesting date or at year end, as applicable, and by number of shares or units then outstanding associated with the weight assigned to each performance measure, including shares or units due to dividend credits.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The prorated portion of performance shares that vest due to the elimination of an executive&#8217;s position and separation from AEP service as the result of a consolidation, reorganization, restructuring or downsizing or under circumstances that give rise to Executive Severance Plan Benefits are treated as unvested until the end of the performance period for the purpose of calculating &#8220;CAP&#8221;.

These proxy access provisions of our Bylaws provide, among other things, that a stockholder or group of up to twenty stockholders seeking to include director candidates in our annual meeting proxy statement must own 3% or more of our outstanding common stock continuously for at least the previous three years. The number of stockholder-nominated candidates appearing in any annual meeting proxy statement cannot exceed the greater of (x)&#160;two or (y)&#160;20% of the number of directors then serving on the Board. If 20% is not a whole number, the maximum number of stockholder-nominated candidates would be the closest whole number below 20%. Based on the current Board size of 12 directors, the maximum number of proxy access candidates that we would be required to include in our proxy materials for an annual meeting is two. Nominees submitted under the proxy access procedures that are later withdrawn or are included in the proxy materials as Board-nominated candidates will be counted in determining whether the 20% maximum has been reached. If the number of stockholder-nominated candidates exceeds 20%, each nominating stockholder or group of stockholders may select one nominee for inclusion in our proxy materials until the maximum number is reached. The order of selection would be determined by the amount (largest to smallest) of shares of our common stock held by each nominating stockholder or group of stockholders. The nominating stockholder or group of stockholders also must deliver the information required by our Bylaws, and each nominee must meet the qualifications required by our Bylaws. Requests to include stockholder-nominated candidates in our proxy materials for next year&#8217;s annual meeting must be received by the Corporate Secretary:</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:31.5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#8226;</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.15pt">not earlier than the close of business on October&#160;17, 2023; and</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:31.5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#8226;</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.15pt">not later than the close of business on November&#160;16, 2023.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">If the date of the stockholder meeting is moved more than 30 days before or 70 days after the anniversary of our annual meeting for the prior year, then notice of a stockholder proposal that is not intended to be included in our proxy statement under Rule 14a-8 must be received no later than the close of business on the later of the following two dates:</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:31.5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#8226;</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.15pt">120 days prior to the meeting; and</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:31.5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#8226;</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.15pt">10 days after public announcement of the meeting date.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:31.5pt"><span><br/></span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="height:42.75pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">94</span></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"/><div style="min-height:42.75pt;width:100%"><div><span><br/></span></div></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Solicitation Expenses</span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">These proxies are being solicited by our Board of Directors.
