This
supplement to the CPI Aerostructures, Inc. proxy statement, dated April 30,
2009, relating to the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on June 11, 2009
is being sent to notify you of:
- A correction to the information regarding the treatment of abstentions in
relation to the approvel of the PerformanceEquity Plan 2009 that appears on
page 2 of the proxy statement.
This
supplement should be read together with the matters set forth in the proxy
statement and the related annex. Terms used in this supplement that
are defined in the proxy statement have the meanings used in the proxy
statement.
Correction
to the treatment of abstentions in relation to the approval of the Performance
Equity Plan 2009
The proxy
statement contains an error relating to the treatment of abstentions in relation
to the approval of the Performance Equity Plan 2009. The proxy
statement indicates that “abstentions from voting are counted as “votes cast”
with respect to the proposal and, therefore, have the same effect as a vote
against the proposal.” The correct information is that abstentions from voting
with respect to this proposal will NOT be counted in determining the number of
votes required for a majority and will therefore have no effect on such
vote.
All other
information in the proxy statement remains unchanged.
