Google Announces – GOOG Internet Availability of Proxy Materials

Google has announced it will make available its proxy materials for the upcoming investor meeting. Google’s press release states,

Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) today announced the Internet availability of proxy materials for its 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s new Notice and Access rule. Google’s proxy materials can be found on its investor relations website at http://investor.google.com/.
Pursuant to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s new Notice and Access rule, companies may now satisfy their proxy materials delivery requirements by delivering a “Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials” to stockholders, providing Internet access to the proxy materials, and providing a printed set of proxy materials by mail to any stockholder who requests them. Google has elected to take full advantage of these new rules in order to minimize impact on the environment and maximize cost savings relating to the printing of the proxy materials. By implementing the procedures permitted under the new Notice and Access rule, Google reduced the number of printed copies of its annual report and proxy materials this year by more than 84 percent.
Google’s 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K and proxy statement for its 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders have been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and may be viewed on Google’s website at http://investor.google.com/ .
