If You Plan to Attend the Annual Meeting:

  • It is important that you let us know in advance by marking the appropriate box on your proxy card if you requested to receive printed proxy materials, or, if you vote by telephone or Internet, indicating your plans when prompted.
  • Please note that space limitations make it necessary for us to limit attendance to our stockholders-Google stockholders as of the close of business on March 11, 2008 are entitled to attend our Annual Meeting.
  • Admission will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Please note that check-in and registration begins at 12:30 pm. Google will be serving lunch to attendees.
  • Each stockholder should be prepared to present:
    1. Valid photo identification, such as a driver's license or passport; and
    2. Stockholders holding their shares through a broker, bank, trustee or nominee will need to bring proof of beneficial ownership as of the Record Date, such as their most recent account statement reflecting their stock ownership prior to March 11, 2008 or a copy of the voting instruction card provided by their broker, bank, trustee or nominee or similar evidence of ownership.
  • Cameras, recording devices and other electronic devices will not be permitted at the meeting.
  • Please allow ample time for check-in. For security reasons, you and your bags will be subject to search prior to your admittance to the meeting.
  • You must be registered to be admitted to the meeting. Registration will take place at the Shoreline Amphitheatre.
  • If you are a beneficial owner, like a vast majority of our stockholders, you may not vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a "legal proxy" from the broker, bank, trustee or nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the meeting. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you also submit your proxy or voting instructions as described in the proxy statement so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the meeting.

Directions to Shoreline Amphitheatre from either San Jose or San Francisco:

  1. Follow Route 101 to the Rengstorff/Amphitheatre Parkway exit.
  2. Follow the signs to the Amphitheatre (cross back over 101 if you are coming from the north/just stay right if you are coming from the south).
  3. Go through the signal at Charleston Road and continue on Amphitheatre Parkway. You will pass Google on your right.
  4. Turn left at Bill Graham Parkway and follow the signs to Lot C.

A shuttle bus will be available to take you to our headquarters for the Annual Meeting.
