PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON
Approval of Long Term Incentive Plan
On September 2, 2021, the Board adopted a long term incentive plan (the “ LTIP ”) which provides for the granting of deferred share units (“ DSU ”), restricted share units (“ RSU ”), performance share units (“ PSU ”) and stock options (“ Options ” and together with DSUs, RSUs, PSUs “ Awards ”).
Under the terms of the LTIP, the Board, or if authorized by the Board, a committee of the Company, may grant Awards to eligible participants, being directors, officers, senior executives, consultants, management company employees and other employees of the Company or a subsidiary. Awards may be granted at any time and from time to time in order to (i) increase participants’ interest in the Company welfare; (ii) provide incentives for participants to continue their services; (iii) reward participants for their performance of services; and (iv) provide a means through which the Company may attract and retain people to enter its employment. Participation in the LTIP is voluntary and, if an eligible participant agrees to participate, the grant of Awards will be evidenced by a grant agreement with each such participant. The interest of any participant in any Award is not assignable or transferable, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, except upon the death of the participant.
The LTIP provides that appropriate adjustments, if any, will be made by the Board in connection with a reclassification, reorganization or other change to the Common Shares, consolidation, distribution, merger or amalgamation, in the Common Shares issuable or amounts payable to preclude a dilution or enlargement of the benefits under the LTIP. In the event that a participant receives Common Shares in satisfaction of an Award during a black-out period, such participant shall not be entitled to sell or otherwise dispose of such Common Shares until such black-out period has expired.
The maximum number of Common Shares reserved for issuance under the LTIP (with any other share-based compensation arrangement, including the Legacy Stock Option Plan) will be 19,296,967, representing 20% of the aggregate number of Common Shares issued and outstanding on the date of the Meeting.
In addition, at all times when the Company is listed on the TSXV: (i) the total number of Common Shares which may be reserved for issuance to any one eligible participant under the LTIP together with all of the Company’s other previously established or proposed share-based compensation arrangements shall not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on the grant date (on a non-diluted basis); (ii) the aggregate number of Awards which may be granted to any one eligible participant under the LTIP in any 12 month period must not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares calculated on the grant date (on a non-diluted basis) (iii) the aggregate number of Awards to any one eligible participant that is a consultant of the Company in any 12 month period must not exceed 2% of the issued Common Shares calculated at the first such grant date; (iv) the aggregate number of Options to all persons retained to provide investor relations activities must not exceed 2% of the issued Common Shares in any 12month period calculated at the first such grant date (and including any eligible participant that performs investor relations activities and/or whose role or duties primarily consist of investor relations activities); (v) Options granted
to any person retained to provide investor relations activities must vest in a period of not less than 12 months from the date of grant of the Award; and (vi) the aggregate number of Common Shares issuable to all eligible participants under the plan must not exceed 19,296,967 which represents 20% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on the date of the Meeting.
Unless the Board determines otherwise, the LTIP provides that Options will vest as to 1/2 following the first anniversary of the date of such grant and 1/2 following the second anniversary of the date of such grant. The exercise price of any Option shall be fixed by the Board when such Option is granted but shall be no less than the three-day volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the CSE (or other recognized exchange, if applicable) on the day prior to the date of grant (the “ Market Value ”). An Option shall be exercisable during a period established by the Board, which shall commence on the date of the grant and shall terminate no later than five years after the date of granting the Option, or such shorter period of time as the Board may determine. The LTIP will provide that the exercise period shall automatically be extended if the date on which such Option is scheduled to terminate shall fall during a black-out period. In such cases, the extended exercise period shall terminate 10 business days following the last day of the blackout-period.
With respect to RSUs, unless otherwise approved by the Board and except as otherwise provided in a participant’s grant agreement or any other provision of the LTIP, RSUs will vest as to 1/2 each on the first and second anniversary date of their grant. With respect to PSUs, unless otherwise approved by the Board and except as otherwise provided in a participant’s grant agreement or any other provision of the LTIP, PSUs will vest subject to performance and time vesting.
With respect to DSUs, unless otherwise specified in the grant agreement, DSUs shall vest on the last day of the fiscal year for which they are granted. In the event that a termination date falls before the last day of the relevant fiscal year, one-twelfth of the DSUs granted for such fiscal year will vest for each completed month in that fiscal year prior to the DSU termination date and all remaining unvested DSUs will be forfeited on the DSU termination date and have no further value.
DSUs granted to non-director DSU participants will vest to the extent of one-third thereof on each of the first, second and third anniversaries following the year in which the date of the grant falls, provided that the non-director DSU participant continues to (i) be employed by the Company and (ii) at all times following the date of the grant to beneficially own, directly or indirectly, and control at least the same number of Common Shares as he or she beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, and controlled on the date of the grant. On a non-director DSU participant’s DSU termination date, all remaining unvested DSUs will be forfeited on the DSU termination date and have no further value.
The following table describes the impact of certain events upon the rights of holders of Awards under the LTIP, including termination for cause, resignation, termination other than for cause, retirement and death, subject to the terms of a participant’s employment agreement:
| Event Provisions Termination for cause Resignation Termination other than for cause Retirement Death |
Provisions |
|---|---|
| Immediate forfeiture of all vested and unvested Awards. Forfeiture of all unvested Awards and the earlier of the original expiry date and 90 days after resignation to exercise vested Awards, or such longer period as the Board may determine in its sole discretion (provided that such Awards expire no later than one year from the effective date of the resignation). Subject to the terms of the grant or as determined by the Board, upon a participant’s termination without cause, the number of Awards that may vest is subject to pro- ration over the applicable performance or vesting period. Forfeiture of all unvested Awards and the earlier of the original expiry date and 360 days after retirement to exercise vested Awards. All unvested Awards will vest and may be exercised within 360 days after death. |
In connection with a change of control of the Company, the Board will take such steps as are reasonably necessary or desirable to cause the conversion or exchange or replacement of outstanding Awards into, or for, rights or other securities of substantially equivalent (or greater) value in the continuing entity; provided that the Board may accelerate the vesting of Awards if: (i) the required steps to cause the conversion or exchange or replacement of Awards are impossible or impracticable to take or are not being taken by the parties required to take such steps (other than the Board); or (ii) the Board has entered into an agreement which, if completed, would result in a change of control and the counterparty or counterparties to such agreement require that all outstanding Awards be exercised immediately before the effective time of such transaction or terminated on or after the effective time of such transaction. If a participant is terminated without cause or resigns for cause during the 12 month period following a change of control, or after the Board has signed a written agreement to effect a change of control but before the change of control is completed, then any unvested Awards will immediately vest and may be exercised within 30 days of such date.
The Board may, in its sole discretion, suspend or terminate the LTIP at any time, or from time to time, amend, revise or discontinue the terms and conditions of the LTIP or of any Award granted under the LTIP and any grant agreement relating thereto, subject to any required regulatory and stock exchange approval, provided that such suspension, termination, amendment, or revision will not adversely alter or impair any Award previously granted except as permitted by the terms of the LTIP or as required by applicable laws.
The Board may amend the LTIP or any Award at any time without the consent of a participant; provided that such amendment shall (i) not adversely alter or impair any Award previously granted, except as permitted by the terms of the LTIP; (ii) be in compliance with applicable law and subject to any regulatory approvals including, where required, the approval of the CSE; and (iii) be subject to shareholder approval, where required by law, the requirements of the CSE or the LTIP; provided, however, that shareholder approval shall not be required for the following amendments and the Board may make any changes which may include but are not limited to:
-
amendments of a general housekeeping or clerical nature that, among others, clarify, correct or rectify any ambiguity, inconsistency, defective provision, error or omission in the LTIP;
-
changes that alter, extend or accelerate the terms of exercise, vesting or settlement applicable to any Award;
-
a change to the eligible participants or assignability provisions under the LTIP,
-
any amendment regarding the effect of termination of a participant’s employment or engagement;
-
any amendment to add or amend provisions relating to the granting of cash-settled Awards, provision of financial assistance or clawbacks;
-
any amendment regarding the administration of the LTIP;
-
any amendment necessary to comply with applicable law or the requirements of any regulatory body; and
-
any other amendment that does not require the approval of the shareholders, provided that the alteration, amendment or variance does not:
-
increase the maximum number of Common Shares issuable under the LTIP, other than pursuant to the adjustment provisions;
-
reduce the exercise price of any Award held by an insider of the Company, other than pursuant to the adjustment provisions;
-
introduce non-employee directors as eligible participants on a discretionary basis or increases the existing limits imposed on non-employee director participation;
-
remove or exceed the insider participation limit; or
-
amend the amendment provisions of the LTIP.
Note that any options to acquire Common Shares currently outstanding under the Legacy Stock Option Plan will continue to be governed by the terms of such plan.
The text of the LTIP is available for review by any Shareholder up until the day preceding the Meeting at the Company’s registered and records offices at 910 – 800 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia.
Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to consider and, if deemed advisable, approve with or without variation the following resolution:
- “ BE IT RESOLVED THAT the long term incentive plan of the Company summarized in the Circular dated September 14, 2021 be and it is hereby approved, together with all equity compensation granted thereunder as at the date hereof, and that the Board be and they are hereby authorized, without further Shareholder approval, to carry out the intent of this resolution.”
If this resolution is approved by Shareholders it is expected that the Board will in due course grant further Awards under
the LTIP as the Board deems fit in light of the overall compensation program and the relative efforts and contributions of the eligible participants under the LTIP. No votes attaching to Common Shares will be excluded from voting on the resolution.
Management of the Company recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of the LTIP resolution at the Meeting.
OTHER MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON
It is not known that any other matters will come before the Meeting other than as set forth above and in the Notice of Meeting, but if such should occur the persons named in the accompanying form of proxy intend to vote on them in accordance with their best judgment exercising discretionary authority with respect to amendments or variations of matters identified in the Notice of Meeting and other matters which may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment thereof.
