Question and Answer: Where to Send Proxy

Question Raised in Comments:

Richard McDougal of Hawaiiana Management Company sent Nauru Tower owners a "NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF THE ASSOCIATION OF APARTMENT OWNERS OF NAURU TOWER — 2nd Mail Out," dated February 16, 2007, via U.S. Mail. Enclosed in that "2nd Mail Out" was a stamped addressed envelope to be used for returning our signed proxies to Hawaiiana. 

In the mailing I received, that return envelope is addressed to: Hawaiiana Management Company, Ltd., Kahului Office Center, 140 Hoohana Street, Suite 210, Kahului, Maui, Hawaii 96732, and to no one's attention.

Nauru Tower owners who are returning their proxies to Hawaiiana by mail should instead use the stamped addressed envelope that was enclosed with the first notice, dated January 31, 2007. That envelope is correctly addressed to Hawaiiana's Honolulu office on Kapiolani Boulevard, Attn: Anne-Michele, as per the instructions in your blog entry. Alternatively, owners may of course address their own envelopes using the information you've posted.

Perhaps Hawaiiana can confirm that any Nauru Tower Association proxies received by Hawaiiana's Kahului, Maui office have been, and will continue to be, forwarded to Anne-Michelle in the Honolulu office, and that those proxies will be deemed valid as long as they are delivered to that erroneously provided Kahului address by the appointed time of 4:30 P.M., Friday, March 9, 2007, even if the proxies don't arrive in Honolulu until after that deadline.

ANSWER:

It makes absolutely no difference which of our offices the proxies go to.  They will all be counted the same.  It all goes into the same computer system as we are all on the same system in all of our offices.
