TD Bank Group to hold virtual Annual Meeting of Shareholders

TORONTO, March 20, 2020 /CNW/ - Further to the joint statement issued by a number of Canadian banks and life insurance companies, TD Bank Group ("TD or the "Bank") announced today updated plans for its Annual Meeting of Shareholders ("AMS"). TD will host its AMS on Thursday, April 2, 2020 beginning at 9:30 a.m.via webcast or call-in only.

The decision to no longer host the in-person component of the meeting reflects the Bank's efforts to contain the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus and prioritize and support the well-being of our customers, shareholders and colleagues.

Live coverage of the meeting will include presentations from Brian Levitt, Chair of the Board, TD Bank Group and Bharat Masrani, Group President and CEO, TD Bank Group. Shareholders accessing the meeting through webcast or call-in will be able to listen to the presentations and ask questions following the presentations but only those accessing by webcast will be able to vote during the meeting.

TD also encourages shareholders to vote in advance of the annual shareholders' meeting. If shareholders have already submitted their vote, there is no need to vote again. However, shareholders who have not yet voted should follow their applicable voting instructions:

• Beneficial shareholders will require their unique control number (located on their voting instruction form) to vote online at www.proxyvote.com or by telephone at 1-800-474-7493 (English) and 1-800-474-7501 (French);
• Registered shareholders who hold a share certificate will require their unique control number (located on their form of proxy) to vote online at www.astvotemyproxy.com; and
• Registered shareholders who hold their shares through the Direct Registration System in the United States will require their unique control number (located on their form of proxy) to vote online at www.investorvote.com/TDM.
