Voting in the annual election of BSNC Board Directors is one of the most important shareholder responsibilities. Please take a moment to vote your proxy. Online voting is quick and easy, allows shareholders to vote anytime, anywhere and reduces our carbon footprint. In addition to these great reasons, five prizes of $1,000 will be drawn from those proxies that have been voted online.
