Cray Inc., a Washington corporation (“Cray”) held a Special Meeting of Shareholders (the “Special Meeting”) on August 27, 2019 at the offices of Fenwick & West LLP, located at 1191 Second Avenue, 10th Floor, Seattle, WA 98101. An aggregate of 41,337,879 shares of Company common stock were entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, and a total of 33,167,348 shares, constituting a quorum, were represented in person or by proxy.

At the Special Meeting, the shareholders of Cray voted on the following proposals: (i) to approve the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 16, 2019, by and among Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company, a Delaware corporation (“HPE”), Canopy Merger Sub, Inc., a Washington corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of HPE, and Cray, as such agreement may be amended from time to time (the “Merger Agreement”) (such proposal, “Proposal One: Merger Agreement Vote”); (ii) to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation that may be paid or become payable to Cray’s named executive officers in connection with the merger (such proposal, “Proposal Two: Advisory Compensation Vote”); and (iii) to approve the adjournment of the special meeting to a later date, if the Board determines that it is necessary or appropriate and is permitted by the Merger Agreement, to solicit additional proxies if there is not a quorum present or there are not sufficient votes in favor of the approval of the Merger Agreement at the time of the special meeting (such proposal, “Proposal Three”). Each of these proposals is described in more detail in Cray’s definitive proxy statement, dated June 25, 2019. The voting results for each of the proposals are detailed below:
