Subj: Proxy Voting
The Annual Meeting of Shareowners of United Parcel Service, Inc. will be held on
Friday, May 12, 2000. Proxy statements were mailed to shareowners' homes
beginning March 27, 2000.
Shareowners should review the proxy statement, indicate their response, sign the
proxy card and return it to First Union National Bank using the business reply
envelope provided. First Union must receive proxies before the Annual Meeting.
In the past, First Union was able to vote any shares for which a proxy was not
received. This is no longer the case. Consequently, it is important that
shareowners complete each proxy card they receive and return them to First Union
as soon as possible.
Please communicate the following key points to UPSers in your area:
- - Annual Meeting of Shareowners will be held on May 12, 2000
- - Proxy statements have been mailed to shareowners
- - Proxy cards should be completed and returned to First Union as soon as
possible
- - First Union cannot vote shares for which proxies are not received
