We have adopted a virtual format with a live audio webcast for our Annual Meeting to provide a consistent experience for all stockholders. Stockholders are encouraged to carefully read the following information to ensure they have a seamless experience accessing the virtual Annual Meeting. More information about the Annual Meeting can be found in the Company’s definitive proxy statement, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 21, 2022.

 

How can I attend the Annual Meeting?

 

The Annual Meeting will be held via a live audio webcast at www.cesonlineservices.com/lpsn22_vm. You are entitled to attend the Annual Meeting only if you were a stockholder as of the close of business on the record date or hold a valid proxy for such a stockholder for the Annual Meeting. To participate in the Annual Meeting, stockholders must register at www.cesonlineservices.com/lpsn22_vm by August 3, 2022 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time. Participants will be required to enter the control number found on their proxy card, voting instruction form or Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials.

 

May I ask questions at the virtual Annual Meeting?

 

Yes. Representatives of the Company, as well as a representative of our independent registered public accounting firm, BDO USA, LLP, are expected to attend the virtual Annual Meeting and be available to answer questions during a live question and answer session. Shareholders that pre-registered for the Annual Meeting will be able to submit questions during the meeting through www.cesonlineservices.com/lpsn22_vm.

 

Instructions for submitting questions and making statements will be available by viewing the Rules of Conduct posted on the virtual meeting website during the Annual Meeting. The live question and answer session will be conducted in accordance with certain Rules of Conduct. These Rules of Conduct will be posted on the virtual meeting website, and may include certain procedural requirements, such as limiting repetitive or follow-up questions, so that more stockholders will have an opportunity to ask questions. This will allow every stockholder who wishes to speak an opportunity to do so.

 

We will post answers to shareholder questions received that are in accordance with the Rules of Conduct on our investor relations website at https://ir.liveperson.com/ as soon as is practical after the Annual Meeting.

 

What should I do if I encounter technical difficulties accessing the virtual Annual Meeting?

 

If you encounter any technical difficulties accessing the virtual Annual Meeting, please call the technical support number in the reminder email sent the day before the meeting.

 

YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we encourage you to vote TODAY so that your voice is heard by voting by Internet, by telephone or by dating, signing, and returning the proxy card previously mailed to you. Voting your shares prior to the Annual Meeting will not affect your right to attend or vote at the Annual Meeting, but will ensure that your vote is counted if you are unable to attend. Only your latest dated proxy card will count, and any proxy may be revoked at any time prior to its exercise at the Annual Meeting.
