Approval of voluntary delisting from the TSX-V 99.588% 0.412%
Under TSX-V policies, delisting of a listed company when the company does not have an alternative public market requires majority of minority approval, meaning that directors, officers, promoters and shareholders holding 10 per cent or more of the company's common shares and non-arm's-length parties were not permitted to vote. Also excluded from the vote were King Place Enterprises Ltd., which holds 11,517,653 shares, as well as its affiliate company, Hebei Wenfeng Industrial Group, which holds 2,587,500 shares. The total number of shares that were excluded from voting on the resolution was 14,105,153, representing 37.6 per cent of the total number of shares outstanding.
With the passing of the resolution, along with board approval of the delisting on April 22, 2025, the company will proceed to finalize the process of voluntarily delisting from the TSX-V. The delisting is expected to occur at the close of business on Thursday, June 26, 2025, subject to final TSX-V approval.
The company will remain a reporting issuer in Canada and will continue to comply with its continuous disclosure obligations under applicable securities laws.
