QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING
|
How many votes do I have?
Each share of common stock that you hold as of the record date entitles you to one vote, without
cumulation, on each matter to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting.
How will the votes be
counted at the Annual Meeting?
The votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting.
How will the Company announce the voting results?
The Company will report the final results of the voting at the Annual Meeting in a filing with the
SEC on a Current Report on Form
8-K.
Who pays for
the Companys solicitation of proxies?
The Board is soliciting your proxy to vote your shares of common stock at our Annual Meeting. We will bear the cost of
soliciting proxies on behalf of the Company, including preparing, printing and mailing this proxy statement. Proxies may be solicited personally, by mail, email or by telephone by certain of our directors, officers, employees or representatives.
Our directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We will reimburse brokerage houses, banks, custodians and other nominees and fiduciaries for
out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in forwarding our proxy solicitation materials.
What is householding and how does it
work?
Under the rules adopted by the SEC, we may deliver a single set of proxy materials to one address shared by two or more of
our stockholders. This delivery method is referred to as householding and can result in significant cost savings. To take advantage of this opportunity, we have delivered only one set of proxy materials to multiple stockholders who share
an address, unless we received contrary instructions from the impacted stockholders prior to the mailing date. We agree to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the proxy materials, as requested, to any stockholder at
the shared address to which a single copy of these documents was delivered. If you prefer to receive separate copies of the Notice, proxy statement or annual report, contact Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. by calling
1-800-542-1061
or in
writing at Broadridge, Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717.
In addition, if you
currently are a stockholder who shares an address with another stockholder and would like to receive only one copy of future notices and proxy materials for your household, you may notify your broker if your shares are held in a brokerage account or
you may notify us if you hold registered shares. Registered stockholders may notify us by contacting Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. at the above telephone number or address or sending a written request to Lear Corporation, 21557 Telegraph
Road, Southfield, Michigan 48033, Attention: Investor Relations.
What do I need for admission to the Annual
Meeting?
Attendance at the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof will be limited to record and beneficial
stockholders as of the record date (March 22, 2018), individuals holding a valid proxy from a record holder and other persons authorized by the Company. If you are a stockholder of record (or a recordholder), your name will be verified
against the list of stockholders of record prior to your admittance to the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. You should be prepared to present photo identification for admission. If you hold your shares in a street name, you
will need to provide proof of beneficial
ownership on the record date, such as a brokerage account statement showing that you owned stock as of the record date, a copy of a voting instruction form provided by your broker, bank or other
nominee, or other similar evidence of ownership as of the record date, as well as your photo identification, for admission. If you do not provide photo identification or comply with the other procedures described above, you will not be admitted to
the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. For security reasons, you and your bags may be subject to search prior to your admittance to the Annual Meeting.
