Brill (Photo: Business Wire)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThe full text of the letter follows:<\/p>\n<p>\nMay 1, 2023<\/p>\n<p>\nDear Shareholder,<\/p>\n<p>\nWe wanted to reach out directly to provide some insight into our experience since recently joining the Board of Directors at Pitney Bowes. As the newest independent directors on the Board, we felt it is important to share our perspectives on the state of the Company. We would also like to discuss the concerted efforts by both our Board and management team to complete the final stages of the Company\u2019s strategic transformation and deliver long-term, sustainable value to you, our shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>\nAs veteran, senior business leaders with decades of relevant experience \u2013 Steve with over 30 years in shipping, logistics, and e-commerce, and Darrell with vast expertise in finance, treasury, capital allocation, and risk management \u2013 we have seen our fair share of challenges and business transformations throughout our careers. Applying that experience to our time on the Pitney Bowes Board, it is clear to the both of us that our current Board is comprised of a strong, engaged, independent, and diverse set of directors. These Board members provide the Company with a balanced mix of experience, skills, and leadership expertise. Importantly, we see already how critical it is to have some Board members with deep institutional knowledge collaborate with the newer members that bring fresh perspectives. It is clear to us that having board members with a deep understanding of all aspects of the business will be critical as we make important strategic decisions going forward. In short, we are convinced that a range of tenures is needed for this Board \u2013 indeed any board \u2013 to operate at peak effectiveness.<\/p>\n<p>\nWe have been warmly welcomed by the Board and the management team since joining. We have benefited from the engagement and historical perspective provided to us by the other directors to accelerate our understanding of Pitney Bowes\u2019 businesses and are already working closely with the Board and management on various important, value-enhancing initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn the short time since we joined, we have been impressed by the Board\u2019s independence of thought, open dialogue, and focused pursuit of value creation for shareholders. This is something we both observed during the interview process and in our work with other Board members since joining.<\/p>\n<p>\nWe also think the quality of experiences and depth of knowledge that Bob Dutkowsky, Anne Busquet, and Linda Sanford bring are assets to the Board. As each shareholder considers their options, each should think about Bob Dutkowsky\u2019s ability to apply the extensive expertise he developed as the Chair and CEO of several supply chain companies, including one of the world\u2019s largest, to provide an invaluable perspective on matters related to finance, management, operations, and risk. Similarly, Anne Busquet\u2019s many years of experience as a senior public company executive, especially her expertise in the areas of product management and marketing provide a valuable perspective in the boardroom. And, as Pitney Bowes continues through this period of transformation, Linda Sanford\u2019s deep operational experience in transforming businesses, including digital transformations, has been, and will continue to be, valuable. Furthermore, they all bring to the boardroom their diverse set of experiences on multiple other boards. Outside of their individual experiences and strengths, we can already see the value of their individual perspectives on Pitney Bowes and how the company has reached this point in its transformation and the value of those views as we make future decisions.<\/p>\n<p>\nOverall, the Board is comprised of a group of individuals with impressive backgrounds who maintain a relentless focus on consistently challenging management and each other both on current plans and in developing new ideas. Notably, they possess the humility and intellectual honesty to welcome different views and change course when required, which is a key element of a well-functioning Board. In just the short period of time that we have been on the Board, we have had the opportunity to discuss important aspects of the Company\u2019s operations and strategy with the other directors. We are excited and look forward to helping position Pitney Bowes for long-term success alongside them.<\/p>\n<p>\nAs you know, much of the focus of the ongoing debate with Hestia Capital has centered on the strategy for the Company\u2019s Global Ecommerce (GEC) business. Thanks to the Board and management team\u2019s leadership and steady hand, GEC today is well positioned to take advantage of growing e-commerce trends and is on the path to long-term profitability. Now that the build-out of our shipping network is largely complete, we can begin to reap the benefits of the Board\u2019s efforts, and bring more volume to more places, faster. We believe that GEC has the right strategy and the strong potential to drive long-term value at Pitney Bowes for the benefit of all shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>\nWe urge you to vote <span class=\"bwuline\">FOR ALL<\/span> Pitney Bowes nominees as well as Katie May on the <span class=\"bwuline\">GOLD<\/span> proxy card.<\/p>\n<p>\nThank you for your continued support of Pitney Bowes.<\/p>\n<p>\nSincerely,<\/p>\n<p>\nSteven D. Brill, Independent Director of the Pitney Bowes Board<\/p>\n<p>\nJ. Darrell Thomas, Independent Director of the Pitney Bowes Board<\/p>\n<p><b>Steven D. Brill<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nRetired from UPS (NYSE:UPS) in 2020, where Mr. Brill last served as the President Corporate Strategy, working on the long term direction of the enterprise to drive sustainable profitable growth.
