Dear ICGI members, Please vote for the ICGI Amendment if you haven't done so. Thank you.

From: Yu, Jing via ICGI-LIST icgi-list@cottongen.org Sent: Monday, February 27, 2023 10:44 AM To: icgi-list@cottongen.org Subject: [ICGI] Vote for ICGI Amendment (2/27/2023 - 3/12/2023)

Colleagues, past ICGI elections have been subject to several challenges including 1) the 'nomination to candidate' process and 2) voter eligibility. Difficulties have arisen due to too many candidates being listed for a single position and voting eligibility irregularities related to membership. Each of the three proposed amendments have been approved by a majority vote of the ICGI Executive Steering Committee.

Members of ICGI are asked to vote one of the three options (Agree/Against/Abstain) for each amendment.

Please go to https://www.cottongen.org/icgi/election/2023/amendmenthttps://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.cottongen.org/icgi/election/2023/amendment__;!!JmPEgBY0HMszNaDT!rt63OMO3_vHHCFZdSAYZ8N0YCFLGXUxYXKvtTZn5WMa5WVnJc3ghoPP9g9PoH3eeIRX3TMQISYxwIEaeCopXVQ$ for detailed information and follow the instruction to vote.

Regards,
