Strategic obtained final approval for the Plan of Arrangement from the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the "Court") on April 25, 2017. The final Order of the Court will be filed in due course with the British Columbia Registrar of Companies, in conjunction with the listing of Trifecta's common shares on the Exchange. In that regard, documentation has been filed with the Exchange in support of that listing, with further details in respect of said listing to be disclosed by subsequent news release. Strategic shareholders will not be required to do anything to obtain their Trifecta common shares, as they will be distributed pursuant to the shareholders' list maintained by Strategic's registrar and transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., as of the Share Distribution Record Date.
