Commencing on or about May 2, 2018, Vocera Communications, Inc. sent the following email communication to certain employees:
Hello Vocera Team,
As you may know, we filed our proxy statement this month and our annual shareholder meeting is scheduled for June 1. Our proxy includes important proposals that shareholders have the opportunity to vote on, including the approval of an amendment that would add more shares to Vocera’s Equity Incentive Plan as well as other changes. Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” each of the items. I want to encourage all Vocera employees who own shares to vote as soon as possible.
You can vote on the Internet or by telephone or request, sign and return a proxy card to ensure that your shares are represented at the meeting. For most employees, Vocera shares are held at E*TRADE. Instructions for how to vote your shares at E*TRADE are provided below. If you have Vocera shares elsewhere, please follow the instructions you receive from your brokerage firm.
Thank you. If you have any questions about this or investor relations in general, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me or Sue Dooley.
