Shareholders, an error occurred when printing proxy cards regarding the number of shares you own and votes you have in the top right corner of your proxy card. This error does not affect the validity of your paper proxy, nor does it affect voting on MySealaska.com through the Election Connection portal.
The error regarding the number of shares you own and votes you have does not affect the acceptance of your proxy by the Independent Inspector of Elections (IOE).
If you have already voted your paper proxy, the Independent IOE can apportion the actual number of votes to reflect your intent. If you have questions or concerns, you can reach out to the Independent IOE at 907.789.3178 or elections@erakcpa.com.
If you have not yet voted, you may do so electronically on MySealaska.com through the Election Connection portal, which is unaffected by the error. If you plan to vote using your paper proxy, please wait until you receive the second proxy, sent every election season, which will reflect your accurate number of shares and votes.

Shareholder Proxy Update FAQ
I received my 2025 proxy statement, and the number of shares and votes I have, in the top right corner of the proxy card, appears to be wrong. Is my proxy still valid?
An error occurred when printing proxy cards regarding the number of shares you own and votes you have. This error does not affect the validity of your proxy.
I already voted my paper proxy and mailed it to the Independent Inspector of Elections. What should I do ?
Nothing. The error regarding the number of shares you own and votes you have does not affect the acceptance of your proxy by the Independent Inspector of Elections (IOE). Pursuant to Alaska law and proxy verification rules, a proxy will be accepted by the Independent IOE even if it does not state the correct number of shares or votes. A proxy will never be accorded more votes than the shareholder is entitled to based on the shareholder list as of the record date. If a shareholder has attempted to vote more or fewer shares than they are actually entitled to, the Independent IOE will attempt to contact the shareholder regarding the error. If the Independent IOE is unable to contact the shareholder, the Independent IOE will apportion the actual number of votes to reflect the intent of the shareholder.
Shareholders may also contact Sealaska Corporation directly if they have questions or would like to verify their voting information.
