Ain, Danielle M. Barrett, James Dodez, Stanley K. Honey, Robert Tavares and Charles R. Trimble \u2013 today issued a letter to shareholders in connection with the Company\u2019s upcoming annual meeting of shareholders to be held on June 17, 2021.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe full text of the letter is available at: <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fprotectkvh.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2021%2F06%2FKVH-Shareholder-Letter-June-3-Final.pdf&amp;esheet=52440271&amp;newsitemid=20210603006044&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=https%3A%2F%2Fprotectkvh.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2021%2F06%2FKVH-Shareholder-Letter-June-3-Final.pdf&amp;index=1&amp;md5=f3312e230bab6a289df04c0746430aae\">https:\/\/protectkvh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/KVH-Shareholder-Letter-June-3-Final.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\nThe letter highlights the following:\n<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nKVH\u2019s progress in executing against its strategy is clear \u2013 and shareholders are seeing results. This positive momentum is reflected in the Company\u2019s total shareholder return of 66% over the past year and 29% year-to-date.<sup>1<\/sup><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nAfter years of focused investment, KVH\u2019s shift towards innovative service offerings and new products and solutions is set to drive more predictable, higher-margin revenue. The Independent Directors are confident this progress will continue to translate into greater value for shareholders.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nIn order to help oversee management and the successfully execute KVH\u2019s strategy, the Board has been focused on ensuring there are individuals with fresh perspectives and the right skill sets in the boardroom. Both of KVH\u2019s independent nominees for the upcoming 2021 annual meeting \u2013 Cielo Hernandez and Cathy-Ann Martine-Dolecki \u2013 have valuable experience as leaders in industries directly relevant to KVH\u2019s business and would be highly valuable to the Board and the Company.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nThe Independent Directors have serious concerns about the VIEX nominees, Eric Singer (also VIEX\u2019s founder and managing member) and John Mutch. In its investor presentation issued on May 27, VIEX fails to offer any specific ideas for improving KVH, and merely expresses the same generic criticisms that VIEX and Eric Singer have made at other companies they have targeted in the past.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nMost concerning to the Independent Directors is that in 2018 Mr. Singer was found by a Delaware court to have breached his fiduciary duty of loyalty to shareholders when he was on the board of PLX Technology Inc.<sup>2<\/sup> According to the ruling, after being appointed Chair of a Special Committee to explore strategic alternatives, he was found to have effectively misled his fellow directors in order to \u201crig the bid\u201d for his preferred acquirer. In the view of the Independent Directors, managing a sales process with integrity is among the most sacrosanct duties of a director. The Independent Directors believe that having violated that trust so egregiously is disqualifying for any director candidate.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\nThe Board strongly encourages shareholders to vote for its two exceptional and high-integrity nominees, Ms. Hernandez and Ms. Martine, on the BLUE proxy card, to help preserve KVH\u2019s momentum.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nFor additional information, please visit <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ProtectKVH.com&amp;esheet=52440271&amp;newsitemid=20210603006044&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=www.ProtectKVH.com&amp;index=2&amp;md5=2b655f07da81ec145947445d9dbacfd4\">www.ProtectKVH.com<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About KVH Industries, Inc.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nKVH Industries, Inc., (Nasdaq: KVHI), is a global leader in mobile connectivity and inertial navigation systems, innovating to enable a mobile world.
