The Company also announces the approval by its Board of
Directors on September 27,
2012 of an advance notice policy (the "Policy") regarding
meetings of shareholders. The Policy, among other things, includes
a provision that requires advance notice to the Company in certain
circumstances where shareholders of the Company nominate persons
for election to the Board.
The Policy establishes deadlines by which holders of record of
common shares of the Company must submit director nominations to
the Company prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders.
The Policy also sets forth certain information that a shareholder
must include in the notice to the Company for the notice to be
accepted.
The deadline for notice to the Company in the case of an annual
meeting of shareholders is not less than 30 nor more than 65 days
prior to the date of the annual meeting; provided, however, that in
the event that the annual meeting is to be held on a date that is
less than 50 days after the date on which the first public
announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice may
be made not later than the close of business on the 10th day
following such public announcement.
The deadline for notice to the Company in the case of a special
meeting of shareholders (which is not also an annual meeting), is
not later than the close of business on the 15th day following the
day on which the first public announcement of the date of the
special meeting was made.
The Policy is effective as of the date it was approved.
