The nature of the business to be transacted at the Meeting is described in further detail in the accompanying management information circular and the schedules thereto.
We are continuing to utilize “Notice and Access” to provide you with electronic access to our Circular and other meeting materials, rather than mailing paper copies. Electronic access of the circular is part of our commitment to reducing our environmental footprint as electronic delivery substantially reduces our printing and mailing costs, and has less environmental impact as it reduces materials, waste, and energy consumption.
The record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting is May 4, 2021 (the “Record Date”). Shareholders of the Company whose names have been entered in the register of shareholders at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting.
