Waste Management, Inc. (NYSE: WM) today announced that, due to
increasing public health concerns posed by the COVID-19 pandemic,
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the location and time of its 2020
Annual Meeting of Stockholders (“Annual Meeting”) has been changed
to an audio virtual meeting to be held on Tuesday, May 12, 2020 at
2:00 pm CT. Stockholders will not be able to attend the Annual
Meeting in person this year. The only items of business are the
same as set forth in the Annual Meeting notice and proxy materials
previously distributed. No presentations are planned.
As described in the proxy materials, stockholders as of the
close of business on March 16, 2020 (the record date for the Annual
Meeting), or who hold a legal proxy for the Annual Meeting provided
by their bank, broker, or nominee, are entitled to access and
participate in the virtual Annual Meeting, including asking
questions, examining the list of registered stockholders and voting
their shares.
To attend and participate in the virtual Annual Meeting,
stockholders must use the following link:
www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/WM2020 and enter the 16-digit
control number found on the proxy card, voting instruction form, or
notice previously provided. Those without a 16-digit control number
will be admitted to the virtual Annual Meeting as guests, but
guests will not have the ability to vote or otherwise participate
at the virtual Annual Meeting.
All stockholders - whether attending the virtual Annual
Meeting or not - are encouraged to vote and submit their proxies in
advance of the meeting by one of the methods described in the proxy
materials. Please note that the proxy card included with the
proxy materials previously distributed will not be updated to
reflect the change in location or time of the Annual Meeting and
may continue to be used to vote shares in connection with the
Annual Meeting. Stockholders who have sent in proxies, or submitted
their proxies via telephone or internet, do not need to take any
further action. A list of registered stockholders will be available
to stockholders participating in the virtual Annual Meeting at
www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/WM2020.
