WILMINGTON, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Bancorp, Inc. (“Bancorp”) (Nasdaq: TBBK) today announced that the location of its 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) has been changed to a virtual-only meeting format due to the public health impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak and to support the health and well-being of its stockholders, employees and the greater community. As previously announced, the Annual Meeting will be held on Thursday, May 14, 2020 at 10:00 a.m., Delaware time, but stockholders will only be able to access the Annual Meeting remotely by live audio webcast. Stockholders as of the close of business on March 23, 2020 attending the Annual Meeting remotely will have the same opportunities they have had at past annual meetings to participate, vote and submit questions through the virtual meeting platform.
To access the virtual meeting, stockholders should visit https://web.lumiagm.com/239103630. The password for the meeting is “bancorp2020”. Stockholders will be required to enter their unique 11-digit control number, which was previously provided on the proxy card or voting instructions forms. Registered holders can also request their control number by emailing proxy@astfinancial.com, and beneficial holders (stockholders whose shares are registered in the name of a bank, broker, trustee or other nominee) can obtain their control number by emailing a valid legal proxy (which can be obtained as described below) to proxy@astfinancial.com. You are encouraged to access the meeting prior to the start time leaving ample time for the check in.
If your shares are registered in the name of your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee, and you choose to vote in person at the virtual Annual Meeting, you must first obtain a valid legal proxy from your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee and then register in advance to vote at the Annual Meeting. Follow the instructions from your broker or bank included with the proxy materials you previously received, or contact your broker or bank to request a legal proxy form. You must submit proof of your legal proxy reflecting the number of your shares along with your name and email address to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC. Requests for registration should be directed to proxy@astfinancial.com or to facsimile number 718-765-8730. Written requests can be mailed to: American Stock Transfer & Trust Company LLC, Attn: Proxy Tabulation Department, 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11219. Requests for registration must be labeled as “Legal Proxy” and be received no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 7, 2020.
Your vote is important. Whether or not you intend to be present at the meeting, it is important that your shares be represented. The Bancorp urges you to authorize a proxy to vote your shares in advance of the meeting by one of the methods described in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. The proxy card or voting instruction form included in any hard copies of the proxy materials will not be updated to reflect the change in location and may continue to be used to vote your shares in connection with the Annual Meeting.
