Dear Fellow Barrett Business Services Stockholders,
At the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders in May of 2019, Barrett Business Services stockholders expressed their desire for the Board of Directors to draft, adopt and put to a stockholder vote a so-called “proxy access” bylaw. Such a bylaw would provide an additional means for stockholders of the Company to nominate a director candidate for election to our Board.
The Board takes seriously the views expressed by BBSI’s stockholders and has asked me to convey that the Board intends to fulfill the desires expressed by the Company’s stockholders. The Board has directed counsel to draft an appropriate bylaw for stockholder consideration and approval at our upcoming 2020 annual meeting.
Additional information regarding the proposed proxy access bylaw will be included in the Company’s proxy materials to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in April 2020. The proxy access process will be in addition to the rights that stockholders currently have under Maryland law and Section 1.11 of BBSI’s Bylaws to nominate individuals for election as directors. In addition, the Board always welcomes suggestions from stockholders concerning the composition of our Board.
