GREEN BAY, Wis., April 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Nicolet
Bankshares, Inc. announced today that its 2020 Annual Meeting of
Shareholders will be held in an online-only, virtual meeting
format, due to the public health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
and out of concern for the health and well-being of employees and
shareholders. The previously announced date and time of the Annual
Meeting – Monday, May 11, 2020, at
5:00 p.m., Central Time – has not
changed.
This change in location does not impact the ability of
shareholders to vote in advance of the Annual Meeting by one of the
methods described in the Proxy Statement. As described in the Proxy
Statement previously distributed, the holders of record of the
outstanding shares of common stock on March
5, 2020 are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.
To access the Annual Meeting please go to
www.meetingcenter.io/279047116. To log in to the Annual Meeting,
attendees have two options: Join as a "Guest" or Join as a
"Shareholder." To join as a "Shareholder," a control number, which
was provided in previously distributed proxy materials, and a
password will be required. The password for the meeting is
NCBS2020. Help and technical support for accessing and
participating in the Annual Meeting will be available by following
the instructions that will be posted on the above website.
Registered Holders: If shares are registered
directly with the Company's transfer agent, Computershare, the
control number found on the proxy card, or email with proxy
materials previously received, can be used to enter the annual
meeting. Registered holders may vote during the annual meeting by
following the instructions available on the meeting website during
the meeting. However, we encourage all shareholders of record to
vote in advance to ensure a quorum.
Beneficial Holders: If shares are held in a stock
brokerage account or by a bank or other holder of record,
shareholders are considered the "beneficial owner" of shares held
in "street name." We encourage all shareholders to vote in advance
to ensure a quorum. Beneficial owners who wish to vote their shares
at the meeting must pre-register with Computershare no later than
May 6, 2020. To pre-register,
shareholders must (i) request proof of proxy power (legal proxy)
from the bank or broker and (ii) send to the email address below,
together with the shareholder's name and email address, either (a)
the forwarded email from the broker, or (b) an attached image of
the legal proxy. Requests for registration must be labeled as
"Legal Proxy" and should be sent to the following email address:
legalproxy@computershare.com. All pre-registration requests must be
received by Computershare no later than 5:00
p.m., Central Time, on May 6,
2020. Shareholders will receive a confirmation email from
Computershare confirming registration and providing a control
number to enter the annual meeting as a shareholder.
If attendees do not have a control number, or they have already
voted their proxy and do not wish to change their vote, they may
attend as a "Guest," but will not have the option to vote shares or
ask questions at the annual meeting.
While registered holders will be given the opportunity to ask
questions during the meeting, Nicolet encourages all shareholders
and attendees to provide questions and comments ahead of the
meeting by calling Nicolet's Investor Relations at (920) 617-4540,
or by sending the question or comment to IR@nicoletbank.com. It is
anticipated that all relevant questions will be addressed by
executive management at the virtual meeting.
Further information regarding this change to a virtual meeting
format only for the Annual Meeting can be found in the Notice of
Change of Location of Annual Meeting of Shareholders filed by the
Company with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on April 22, 2020.
