Gentex Corporation (NASDAQ: GNTX), the Zeeland, Michigan-based
supplier of digital vision, connected car, dimmable glass, and fire
protection technologies, announced today that due to ongoing
government regulations and recommendations regarding COVID-19, and
in the interest of the health and well-being of its shareholders,
team members, and communities, its 2021 Annual Meeting of
Shareholders now will be held in a virtual-only meeting format.
As a result, shareholders will not be able to attend the Annual
Meeting in person. The previously announced date and time of the
Annual Meeting (Thursday, May 20, 2021, at 4:30 p.m. E.T.) has not
changed. Digital copies of the annual report and proxy
materials are available online at
https://ir.gentex.com/financials-and-filings/annual-reports-and-proxy-statements.
As described in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting
previously distributed, shareholders as of March 23, 2021, the
record date, are entitled to attend and participate in the Annual
Meeting. To attend and participate in the Annual
Meeting, shareholders will need to go
to http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/GNTX2021 and,
when prompted, enter the 16-digit control number included in
their proxy materials. Those without a 16-digit control number may
attend the 2021 Annual Meeting as guests, but will not be entitled
to ask questions or vote.
Votes will be counted for the following initiatives:
- To elect nine directors as set forth in the Proxy
Statement.
- To ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the
Company’s auditors for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2021.
