The details of all matters proposed to be put before Shareholders at the Meeting are set forth in the Management Information Circular and Proxy Statement accompanying this Notice of Meeting. At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve each of the foregoing items.
The Corporation currently intends to hold the Meeting in person. However, in light of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, the Corporation asks that, in considering whether to attend the Meeting in person, Shareholders consider the advice and instructions of the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) (www.canada.ca/en/publichealth.html) and Alberta Health Services (www.albertahealthservices.ca). Depending upon the status of lock-downs at the time of the Meeting, access to the Meeting may, subject to the Corporation's by-laws, be either entirely restricted or limited to essential personnel and registered Shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting. Depending upon the status of the pandemic at the time, the Corporation encourages registered Shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders not to attend the Meeting in person, particularly if they are experiencing any of the described COVID-19 symptoms. The Corporation encourages Shareholders to vote their common shares prior to the Meeting following the instructions set out in the form of proxy or voting instruction form received by such Shareholders.
We may take additional precautionary measures in relation to the Meeting in response to further developments with the COVID-19 pandemic. We will announce alternative arrangements for the Meeting as promptly as practicable, which may include delaying the Meeting or holding the Meeting entirely by electronic means, telephone or other communication facilities.
Please note that, given the circumstances, there will not be a corporate presentation by management following the formal portion of the Meeting.
