A notice by a shareholder of any qualified shareholder proposal must be received by the Company at its principal executive offices at 2929 California Street, Torrance, California 90503, and directed to the attention of the Secretary of the Company, by November 13, 2017 in order to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy for the Annual Meeting. Any such notice received after the close of business on November 13, 2017 will be considered untimely and not properly brought before the Annual Meeting.
