The Company is offering rights (the “Rights”) to eligible holders of its common shares (the “Shareholders”) as of the record date of December 9, 2021 on the basis of one right for each two common shares held. Each of the Rights will entitle the eligible holder to subscribe for one common share of the Company upon payment of a subscription price of $0.015 per share. The Rights Offering will expire at 2:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on January 13, 2022 (the “Expiry Time”), after which time unexercised rights will be void and of no value. The Rights are listed and posted for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) under the symbol “CCD.RT” on a “when issued” basis and will expire at the Expiry Time.
The Rights are offered to shareholders resident in each province and territory of Canada except than Quebec (the “Eligible Jurisdictions”) and shareholders who have satisfied the requirements of the Company for those resident outside of the Eligible Jurisdictions. Accordingly, and subject to the detailed provisions of the rights offering circular dated November 30, 2021 (the “Circular”), Rights DRS certificates (the “Rights Certificates”) and subscription forms have not been mailed to Shareholders resident outside of the Eligible Jurisdictions, unless such Shareholders are able to establish to the satisfaction of the Company, on or before January 4, 2022, that they are eligible to participate in the Rights Offering. The Company requests any ineligible shareholder interested in exercising their rights to contact the Rights agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., or the Company at their earliest convenience. Shareholders who fully exercise their rights will be entitled to subscribe pro rata for additional Shares not otherwise purchased, if any, as a result of unexercised rights prior to the Expiry Time, subject to certain limitations set out in the Circular.
Registered shareholders who wish to exercise their Rights must forward the completed subscription form, together with the applicable funds, to Computershare Investor Services Inc. on or before the Expiry Time. Shareholders who own their shares through an intermediary, such as a bank, trust company, securities dealer or broker, will receive materials and instructions from their intermediary. Rights delivered to brokers, dealers or other intermediaries may not be delivered by those intermediaries to beneficial shareholders who are residents in a jurisdiction outside of Canada or in Quebec.
