Registered shareholders of Cortez will receive instructions and a letter of transmittal which they must complete and deposit with their Cortez common share certificates with Computershare Investor Services Inc. in order to receive their Starcore shares. Details of the required process are set forth in Cortez's management information circular dated June 4, 2015, a copy of which is available under Cortez's profile at www.sedar.com.
