"Investing in technologies to provide shareowners choice and ease of use in receiving and acting on their proxy materials is in line with our efforts to increase individual shareholder participation."
"Mobile ProxyVote is easy to use," added Joseph Vicari, vice president of business strategy and development at Broadridge.

All a shareholder needs to do is access ProxyVote.com from their mobile device and simply vote."
