The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted on July 27, 2007, amendments to the proxy rules that require issuers (and other soliciting persons) to post the availability of proxy materials on an Internet website and to provide a notice to shareholders that advises them of the availability of these materials on the Internet. This memorandum discusses the two methods available to issuers for distributing proxy materials, website requirements for proxy material availability on the Internet, and dates for compliance with the new rules.
