Every date falls on a business day. Weekends are skipped, and so are New Year’s Day, Family Day, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Victoria Day, Canada Day, Civic Day, Labour Day, National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, Thanksgiving, Remembrance Day, Christmas Day and Boxing Day. A holiday that falls on a weekend is taken on the next weekday.

Notes
- The time between Start-Up Date and Record Date may be less than 25 days under certain circumstances. Please refer to the Abridging Time provisions of National Instrument 54-101 (“NI 54-101”).
- This publication is required for issuers incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Canada) (“CBCA”), Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (“ABCA”) or Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (“OBCA”) and must be made in a city where the issuer’s registered office is located and each city where transfers of shares can occur.
- AGM Connect recommends at least 45 days before the Meeting Date. Choosing a Record Date that is less than our recommended number of days prior to the meeting may cause difficulties in receiving final mailing quantities from Broadridge prior to printing deadlines.
- The following are the maximums allowed between Record Date and Meeting Date: ABCA – 50 days; OBCA, BCBCA and CBCA – 60 days.
- National Instrument 51-102 (“NI 51-102”) requires issuers that are not classified as venture issuers to file annual financial statements and MD&A on SEDAR+ no more than 90 days after the issuer’s year-end and requires venture issuers to file the same no more than 120 days after the year-end. In both cases, the annual financial statements and MD&A must be mailed to those holders that have requested them in accordance with NI 51-102 no later than 10 calendar days after the Filing Deadline. Note that ABCA and CBCA issuers must mail annual financial statements and MD&A to all registered holders unless they have specifically declined to receive the material.
- If you choose to deliver bulk materials to Broadridge USA, this delivery must go by overnight courier at 30 days plus 6 business days (with Notice and Access) or 21 days plus 6 business days (without Notice and Access).
