Target Annual Shareholders Meeting: May 28, 2009
Target’s Annual meeting of Shareholders is fast approaching, and this year we are in the midst of a proxy contest. As part of the contest, Target shareholders are being asked by our Board of Directors to vote ALL the WHITE cards received in the mail and to discard the gold card(s) received from Pershing Square.
Recognized as a best-in-class retailer with a longstanding record of delivering superior shareholder value, Target has a clear strategy that we believe will continue to create value over time. We do not believe Pershing Square has a plan that would lead to long-term shareholder value. As a shareholder, vote to help Target continue to deliver on its strategy.
