Stay safe,
Dear _________:
First, thank you for investing in EMCOR. We appreciate the confidence you have shown in our company and our management team.
I am reaching out to you in order to encourage you to vote AGAINST the shareholder proposal on proxy access that is on our ballot this year.
As your investment team would tell you, the stock performance of EMCOR over the years has been steady and very profitable for our stockholders. We are a disciplined and highly experienced management team and a company with great employees and a well-performing business, and this is reflected in the results of our operations and our stock performance.
In addition, we have a long history of progressive corporate governance practices including:
§ | an independent Board chairman; |
§ | the annual election of our entire Board; |
§ | majority voting for our directors; |
§ | an executive compensation recoupment policy; and |
§ | the ability of stockholders to call special meetings. |
While we are not inherently opposed to the concept of shareholder proxy access, we feel that the adoption of such a policy must be carefully considered by our Board in order to ensure the continued success of EMCOR and to protect EMCOR stockholders such as you who have made a significant investment in our company and would not require such a policy to engage our Board of Directors or management team. We are always open to a conversation with our investors.
I hope you will consider voting against the shareholder proposal on proxy access (Item 4). I would also encourage you to vote in accordance with the recommendation of our Board of Directors on the other matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting.
Specifically, the Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote as follows:
§ | Election of Directors – FOR |
§ | Say on Executive Compensation – FOR |
§ | Appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as auditors for 2016 – FOR |
§ | Shareholder Proposal on Proxy Access – AGAINST |
If you would like to discuss this matter or have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact me, Kevin Matz, our head of investor relations (203-849-7838 or kmatz@emcor.net), or Maxine Mauricio, our general counsel (203-849-7834 or mmauricio@emcor.net).
Thank you for your consideration.
Best regards,
Anthony J. Guzzi
President & CEO
