Attendance and voting at the Meeting
The record date for determination of shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting (the "Record Date") was July 9, 2025. Only shareholders whose names have been entered in the register of the shares of the Corporation on the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting. Shareholders who acquire shares after the Record Date will not be entitled to vote such shares at the Meeting.
Registered shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders will be able to attend, participate, vote and ask questions in writing or by telephone live at the Meeting.
Non-registered shareholders who have not duly appointed themselves as their proxy will be able to attend the Meeting only as guests. Guests will be able to listen to the Meeting but will not be able to vote or ask questions.
| Registered shareholders | Non-registered shareholders |
|---|---|
| You are a registered shareholder if your shares are held in your name. | You are a non-registered shareholder if your shares are listed in an account statement provided to you by an intermediary. |
Shareholders who wish to appoint a proxyholder other than the persons designated by the Corporation on the form of proxy or voting instruction form (including a non-registered shareholder who wishes to appoint themselves as proxyholder) must carefully follow the instructions in the Circular and on their form of proxy or voting instruction form. These instructions include the additional step of registering such proxyholder with our transfer agent, TSX Trust Company ("TSX Trust"), after submitting their form of proxy or voting instruction form. Failure to register the proxyholder will result in the proxyholder not receiving a control number that will act as their online sign-in credentials and is required for them to vote at the Meeting and, consequently, will only be able to attend the Meeting online as a guest.
We have enclosed a proxy form or voting information form with the notice of meeting. If you cannot attend the Meeting, please sign and return the form following the instructions on starting on page 6 of the Circular.
Questions
If you have any questions regarding the notice of meeting, the notice-and-access mechanism or the Meeting please call TSX Trust at 1 (800) 387-0825.
