This phase starts as a postmortem on the 2022 meeting. We analyze who the largest institution and retail shareholders are and compile stats on how they voted. This is followed by an outreach campaign to position the company in front of and communicating with its largest shareholders. The data collected from Phase 1 allows Alliance Advisors to project how compensation proposals will be received for the next shareholder meeting, before they are put before shareholders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phase 2:<\/strong> <a class=\"glossaryLink cmtt_Proxy Logistics\"  aria-describedby=\"tt\"  data-cmtooltip=\"&lt;div class=glossaryItemTitle&gt;Proxy Logistics&lt;\/div&gt;&lt;div class=glossaryItemBody&gt; The process of managing the distribution, collection, and tabulation of proxy materials and...&lt;\/div&gt;&lt;div id=&amp;quot;cmtt_related_articles&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;cmtt_related_articles_wrapper&amp;quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&amp;quot;cmtt_related_title cmtt_related_articles_title&amp;quot;&gt;Related Articles: &lt;\/div&gt;&lt;ul class=&amp;quot;cmtt_related&amp;quot;&gt;&lt;li class=&amp;quot;cmtt_related_item&amp;quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&amp;quot;https:\/\/allianceadvisors.com\/ko\/compensation-advisory-case-study\/&amp;quot;&gt;Case Study: Previously, Failed Say on Pay Proposal Compensation Advisory, Shareholder Meeting Advisory&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;\/li&gt;&lt;li class=&amp;quot;cmtt_related_item&amp;quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&amp;quot;https:\/\/allianceadvisors.com\/ko\/apac-power-generation-company\/&amp;quot;&gt;Case Study: EGM &amp;#8211; Shareholder Engagement&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;\/li&gt;&lt;\/ul&gt;&lt;\/div&gt;&lt;div class=glossaryTooltipMoreLinkWrapper&gt;&lt;a class=glossaryTooltipMoreLink href=https:\/\/allianceadvisors.com\/ko\/glossary-index\/proxy-logistics\/ &gt;Read more...&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;\/div&gt;\"  data-link=\"https:\/\/allianceadvisors.com\/ko\/glossary-index\/proxy-logistics\/\"  href=\"https:\/\/allianceadvisors.com\/ko\/glossary-index\/proxy-logistics\/\"  data-mobile-support=\"0\"  data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex='0' role='link'>Proxy Logistics<\/a>.

In this phase we coordinate outreach to institutions including setting up calls, preparing management to dialogue with institutions. We provide investor dossiers, identify proxy advisory firms (ISS\/Glass Lewis) influence on voting decisions, and coordinate investor follow up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phase 4:<\/strong> Retail Outreach. Since SPCE has a significant percentage of its shares held in retail hands we use proprietary technology to reach registered and NOBO investors.
