No fractional shares will be issued. Any fractional shares resulting from the Consolidation shall be converted such that each fractional share remaining after conversion that is less than one-half of a share be cancelled and each fractional share that is at least one-half of a share be changed to one whole share.
The Company's new CUSIP number is 72703G202 and the new ISIN number is CA72703G2027. The stock symbol will remain unchanged.
A letter of transmittal with respect to the Consolidation will be mailed to registered shareholders of the Company. Registered shareholders can send their respective certificates representing the pre–consolidated subordinate voting shares along with a properly completed letter of transmittal to the Company's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. ("Computershare"), in Toronto, Ontario, all in accordance with the instructions provided in the letter of transmittal.
