It is important to note that Unitholders will not be able to attend this year’s Meeting in person. Those wishing to access and vote at the Meeting during the live webcast will need to ensure that they remain connected to the Meeting at all times in order to vote when balloting commences, and it is such persons’ responsibility to ensure internet connectivity for the duration of the Meeting.
