The information below supersedes and replaces the question captioned “Who will bear the costs of the solicitation of proxies” on page 5 of the proxy statement for the 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 25, 2018.


Q: Who will bear the costs of the solicitation of proxies?

 

A: The cost of preparing the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this Proxy Statement, the Notice of Internet Availability and the form of proxy, the cost of mailing such materials to stockholders or making them available on the Internet and the cost of soliciting proxies will be paid by Sabra. In addition to solicitation by mail, certain officers, regular employees and directors of Sabra, without receiving any additional compensation, may solicit proxies personally or by telephone. Sabra will request brokerage houses, banks and other custodians or nominees holding stock in their names for others to forward proxy materials to their customers or principals who are the beneficial owners of shares of our common stock and will reimburse them for their expenses in doing so. Sabra has retained Innisfree M&A Incorporated to assist in its solicitation of proxies and has agreed to pay Innisfree M&A Incorporated a fee not to exceed $20,000, plus reasonable expenses, for these services.
