Proxy Voting Made Easy

 

Are you confused as to how to support Qualcomm in the board election? Read on to learn more about how to make sure your vote counts.

 

 

Over the coming weeks, Qualcomm stockholders will be receiving multiple mailings of proxy materials from both Qualcomm and Broadcom, including multiple voting proxy cards/voting instruction forms.

 

While stockholders can vote more than once, only your latest-dated proxy card/voting instruction form will count.  So, unless you want to change your vote, you only need to vote once.

 

To make sure your vote is in support of Qualcomm, here’s what to do:

 

·                 Sort through the materials to find the WHITE proxy cards/voting instruction forms. They will clearly say “WHITE” and “Qualcomm” on them.

·                 Vote the WHITE proxy cards/voting instruction forms.

·                 If you hold your shares through more than one account, you will receive a proxy card/voting instruction form for each account. It is very important that you vote with respect to EACH ACCOUNT you own.

·                 Discard all the voting material you receive from Broadcom. Even a protest “Withhold” vote on the Blue Broadcom proxy card/voting instruction form will revoke any previous votes you may have submitted using our WHITE proxy card/voting instruction form.

Solicitation Phone Calls

 

In addition to the proxy mailings, Innisfree, the firm assisting us with the solicitation, is making phone calls to stockholders to help ensure they understand the voting process. As result, employees who are stockholders may receive a call as part of Innisfree’s normal solicitation process. Similarly, stockholders may also receive a call from Broadcom’s solicitation agency. If you do not receive a phone call or have questions about the process, you can contact Innisfree at: Toll-Free at (877) 456-3442 (from the U.S. and Canada), (412) 232-3651 (from other locations).
