Participants in the Solicitation

The Company, its directors and certain of its executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from Company shareholders in connection with the matters to be considered at the Company’s 2018 annual meeting of shareholders. The Company intends to file a proxy statement and white proxy card with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with any such solicitation of proxies from Company shareholders. Company shareholders are strongly encouraged to read any such proxy statement and accompanying white proxy card when they become available as they will contain important information. Investors may obtain information regarding the Company and its directors and executive officers in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, which was filed with the SEC on February 17, 2017, and the Company’s definitive proxy statement for its 2017 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2017 Annual Meeting”), which was filed with the SEC on April 10, 2017. To the extent holdings of the Company’s securities by the Company’s directors or executive officers have changed since the amounts disclosed in the definitive proxy statement for the 2017 Annual Meeting, such changes have been or will be reflected on Initial Statements of Beneficial Ownership on Form 3 and Statements of Change in Beneficial Ownership on Form 4 filed with the SEC or available at the Company’s website at investors.navigant.com.
