BLOOMFIELD, Conn., April 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Cigna
Corporation (NYSE:CI) announced today that, due to the public
health impact of COVID-19, the company will hold its 2020 Annual
Meeting of Shareholders in a virtual meeting format only, via audio
webcast.
The meeting webcast will be held on Wednesday, April 22 at 8:00 a.m. ET. Shareholders are encouraged
to access the meeting prior to the start time and allow ample time
to log into the meeting webcast and test their computer
systems.
To join the virtual meeting, shareholders can either: "Join as a
Guest" or "Join as a Shareholder." Those participants that join as
a "Shareholder" will be required to have a control number and
password. The password for the meeting is CI2020.
Shareholders attending the Annual Meeting may vote by following
the instructions available on the meeting website during the
meeting and are encouraged to vote and submit their proxy in
advance of the meeting and return their proxies by
Internet or by telephone, given the circumstances relating to
COVID-19. They may also sign, date and return their proxy
card or voting instruction form in the envelope
provided. Shareholders are asked to vote as early as possible
to avoid any COVID-19 related processing delays.
Attending the Virtual Meeting as a Shareholder of
Record
If you were a shareholder of record as of February 24,
2020, you can attend the meeting by accessing
www.meetingcenter.io/212561499 and entering the control number
found on the Proxy Card or Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy

Registering to Attend the Virtual Meeting as a Beneficial
Owner
If you were a beneficial owner of record as of February 24,
2020, and you wish to attend the Annual Meeting, you will need to
obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other agent. Once
you have received a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other
agent, please email a scan or image of it to our transfer agent,
Computershare, at legalproxy@computershare.com, with "Legal Proxy"
noted in the subject line. Please note that the voting instruction
form or Notice of Access you received with the Cigna proxy
statement or with any subsequent mailing from Cigna with respect to
the Annual Meeting is not a legal proxy. If you do request a legal
proxy from your broker, bank or other agent, the issuance of the
legal proxy will invalidate any prior voting instructions you have
given and will prevent you from giving any further voting
instructions to your broker, bank or agent to vote on your
behalf. You will only be able to vote at the virtual Annual
Meeting.
Requests for registration must be received by Computershare no
