Callinan Adopts Advance Notice By-Law for Nominating Directors and Majority Voting Policy and Announces Its 2013 Annual General Meeting

24.09.2013  |  CNW

TSXV: CAA

VANCOUVER, Sept. 24, 2013 /CNW/ - Callinan Royalties Corp. ("Callinan" or the "Corporation") announces that the board of directors of the Corporation has approved amendments to its by-laws to add a provision (the "Advance Notice Provision") that requires advance notice to the Corporation in circumstances where director nominations are made by shareholders of the Corporation, other than in connection with: (i) the requisition of a shareholders' meeting; or (ii) a shareholder proposal, in each case made pursuant to the Canada Business Corporations Act.

The Advance Notice Provision is meant to: (i) facilitate an orderly and efficient annual and/or special meeting process; (ii) ensure all shareholders receive adequate notice of director nominations and sufficient information with respect to all nominees; and (iii) allow shareholders to register an informed vote, having been afforded reasonable time for appropriate deliberation.

The Advance Notice Provision fixes deadlines by which shareholders of record of Callinan must submit director nominations to the Corporation prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected, and sets forth the information a shareholder must include in the notice to the Corporation for an effective nomination to occur. No person will be eligible for election as a director of Callinan unless nominated in accordance with the provisions of the Advance Notice Provision.

In the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, the deadline for notice to Callinan pursuant to the Advance Notice Provision is not less than 30 days, or more than 65 days, prior to the date of the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting of shareholders 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.

In the case of a special meeting (which is not also an annual meeting) of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for any other purposes), the deadline for notice to Callinan pursuant to the Advance Notice Provision is no 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 by-law amendment is effective immediately and will be placed before shareholders for ratification and confirmation at the next annual and special meeting of shareholders of the Corporation scheduled for Tuesday, December 3, 2013 at 11 a.m. (PST) at the offices of Boughton Law Corporation, 700 - 595 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V7X 1S8. A copy of the by-law amendment has been filed under the Corporation's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.

In addition to the Advance Notice Provision described above, Callinan is also pleased to inform its shareholders that the following new changes and initiatives have recently been undertaken to reflect Callinan's commitment to ensuring that its corporate governance is current and effective:

  • A Majority Voting Policy has been approved by the board of directors of the Corporation and will be implemented for this year's annual general meeting. The Majority Voting Policy provides, among other things, that if the number of votes withheld from any director is greater than the number of votes for such director, such director will be required to promptly submit an offer to resign to the board. In making a decision to accept or reject a resignation offer, the board of directors will be expected to accept it unless the board determines there are extraordinary circumstances that justify delaying acceptance or rejecting it. The Majority Voting Policy does not apply in circumstances involving contested director elections. The Majority Voting Policy has been codified by way of an amendment to the Corporation's Corporate Practices Policy.
  • The Corporation proposes to implement the Notice and Access Provision to utilize the electronic communication method of communicating with shareholders.
  • Callinan also announces that Ms. Tamara Edwards has been appointed as its Corporate Secretary in addition to her duties as CFO. Accordingly, Ms. Cheri Pedersen has resigned as Corporate Secretary and the board wishes to express appreciation for her many years of service to the Company.

On Behalf of the Board of Directors,

Roland Butler
