Major Irregularities at AGM of Crew Development Corporation; Wrongful Rejection of Proxies', Litigation to Commence
VANCOUVER, Dec. 21 /CNW/ - Crew Development Corporation (the "Company")
(CRU: TSE, OSE, PE; KNC: FSE; OTCBB: CRWVF) today held its 2001 annual general
meeting (the "AGM") at which the nominees of management of the Company were
elected as directors amidst controversy and voting irregularities.
A group of dissident shareholders of the Company who in aggregate hold
approximately 32 percent of the Company's issued and outstanding common
shares, voted by proxy at the AGM to elect as directors of the Company certain
persons who were nominated by the dissident group (the "Dissident Nominees").
The dissident group believes that there were numerous irregularities in the
methods used by the Chairman of the Company in counting the proxies relating
to the AGM and that the Chairman of the Company wrongly rejected all proxies
of the dissident shareholders. The proxies of the dissident group outnumbered
those of management by a 2:1 margin.
As a result, the dissident group is of the view that the Dissident
Nominees are in fact the duly elected directors of the Company. The dissident
group intends to proceed with an application to the Supreme Court of British
Columbia to enforce the rights of the dissident shareholders and to have the
Dissident Nominees declared as the duly elected directors of the Company. The
dissident group has provided notice to the Company that it will hold the Board
and senior management accountable for any actions taken until the Supreme
Court of British Columbia makes a determination with respect to the matter.
