To Vote Your ModusLink Global Solutions, Inc. Shares!

January 6, 2014

 

Dear ModusLink Global Solutions Shareholder:

As you may be aware, ModusLink Global Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) on December 18, 2013. At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders voted on and approved the following proposals found in the definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 29, 2013:

(i) Proposal 1 to elect Anthony Bergamo as a Class II Director and (ii) Proposal 3 to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as reported in the proxy statement.

The Company adjourned the Annual Meeting to allow for additional time for stockholders to vote on Proposal 2 to amend the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to declassify the Board of Directors. The Annual Meeting will reconvene on January 15, 2014 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern time at the offices of Olshan Frome Wolosky LLP., located at 65 East 55th Street, New York, NY 10022 for the purpose of holding a stockholder vote on Proposal 2.

Proposal 2 would eliminate the classification of the Board and provide instead for the annual election of Directors commencing with the Company’s 2014 annual meeting of stockholders, which will be held after the fiscal year ending on July 31, 2014. The Company believes that the declassification of the Board of Directors is consistent with best practices in corporate governance and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
