The Forward Performing Arts (FPA) Annual Meeting will be conducted virtually on Thursday, December 9, 2021 at 7 p.m Central Time. All Corporation Members are asked to vote on board members via proxy using this form.

As required by the FPA bylaws, the Governance Committee vetted and now present the following list of three (3) candidates for election to a 3-year term as Board Directors. To be a candidate for election an individual must have served on the Board previously in an elected, appointed, or ex-officio capacity; and be vetted through the governance committee selection process. The bylaws also require a minimum of 3 Directors be elected to a 3-year term annually.

At the November 13, 2021 Forward Performing Arts Board meeting, the Board unanimously voted to accept and recommend the following slate of three candidates for election to a three-year term to the Board of Directors.

Votes of Members represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, for the election of nominees named herein, unless one or more of such nominees should become unavailable for election by reason of death or other unexpected occurrence, in which event such proxies shall be voted for the election of such substitute nominees as the Board of Directors may propose. The Board of Directors knows of no reason why any of the listed nominees should not be available.

To be elected, a candidate must obtain a simple majority (50% plus 1) of the qualified voted ballots which include those cast in person and those cast via proxy.

Your proxy declaration must be received to us by Thursday, December 9, 2021 at 12:00 p.m. Central Time in order to be qualified. By submitting this form by the deadline, and being a qualified corporation "Member", your electronic submission will also qualify towards achieving a quorum as defined in the FPA by-laws.
