Article Amendments & Advance Notice Provision

At the Meeting, shareholders approved certain amendments to the Articles of the Company in order to bring them in line with the current provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and good corporate governance practices, and to add a requirement for advance notice in connection with the election of directors ("Advance Notice Provisions"). An Advance Notice Provision is intended to provide the Company’s shareholders, directors and management with a transparent, fair and structured framework under which the Company’s shareholders may submit director nominations. The Advance Notice Provision fixes a deadline by which the Company’s shareholders must submit director nominations to the Company prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders and sets out the information that a shareholder must include in a notice to the Company. Under the Advance Notice Provisions, shareholders seeking to nominate a candidate for a Board seat will generally be required to provide notice at least 30 days prior to the date of an annual general meeting or within 15 days following the announcement of any special meeting called for the purpose of electing directors.

The foregoing is a summary of the Advance Notice Provision. A copy of the amended Articles can be found under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com, and a blackline of the amendments can be found at Appendix "2" to the Company's management information circular available on SEDAR.
