*Special Resolution

The Board notes that although resolutions 5 and 6 were each passed with a substantial majority, there were a material number of votes cast against. While the composition of our Board complies with the independence requirements of the AIC Code, we understand that some shareholders have a policy of voting against the re-election of any directors who are not independent or who they do not believe to be independent.

The Board will engage with the shareholders who opposed the resolutions to address their concerns.
