Dear Stockholder:
In response to continued health precautions regarding in-person gatherings as a result of COVID-19, NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the location of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Mastercard Incorporated, to be held on June 16, 2020 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time, has been changed to a virtual-only meeting format, instead of an in-person meeting at our headquarters in Purchase, New York.
VIRTUAL ANNUAL MEETING PARTICIPATION AND GUIDELINES
As described in the previously distributed proxy materials for the Annual Meeting, holders of record of Mastercard’s Class A Common Stock as of the close of business on April 20, 2020, the record date, are entitled to participate in the Annual Meeting, including to vote their shares and ask questions.
To be admitted to the virtual-only Annual Meeting with the ability to both vote and ask questions, stockholders will need to visit www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MA2020 and enter their unique 16-digit voting control number. This voting control number can be found on the Voting Instruction Form, Notice of Internet Availability, Proxy Materials or email. Those without a control number may attend as guests of the meeting but will not have the option to vote their shares, ask questions or otherwise participate in the Annual Meeting. Stockholders are encouraged to log in www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MA2020 to check-in to webcast up to 15 minutes before the Virtual Annual Meeting’s start time.
All participants in the Virtual Annual Meeting should reference the meeting rules of conduct, including guidelines for submitting questions. These rules will be posted to the “Investor Relations” section of Mastercard’s website at https://investor.mastercard.com.
Whether or not you plan to attend the Virtual Annual Meeting, we encourage you to submit your vote in advance of the meeting by one of the methods described in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. The proxy card included with the proxy materials previously distributed will not be updated to reflect the change in location and may continue to be used to vote your shares in connection with the Virtual Annual Meeting.
By order of the Board of Directors,
Janet McGinness
Corporate Secretary
