Management of Cheniere Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) anticipates that the Company will hold its 2015 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) on June 11, 2015. Because the date of the Annual Meeting will be more than 30 days earlier than the anniversary of the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company has set a new deadline for its receipt of stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In order for a stockholder to submit any such proposal for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, the proposal must be received by the Secretary of the Company at the address set forth below by the close of business on December 29, 2014. Any such proposal(s) must comply with the requirements of the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to stockholders’ proposals.
If a stockholder wishes to submit a proposal outside of the process of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, in order for such proposal to be considered “timely” for the purposes of Rule 14a-4(c) under the Exchange Act, the proposal must be received by the Company not later than March 13, 2015. If a stockholder wishes to submit a new business proposal or nominate a director at the Annual Meeting, in order for such proposal or nomination to be timely under the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, the proposal or nomination must be received by the Company no earlier than February 11, 2015 and not later than March 13, 2015.
The address of the Company’s Corporate Secretary is:
