Shareholders of the Company also approved a subdivision of its issued and outstanding common shares on a two-for-one basis at the Meeting (the "Share Split"). It is believed that the Share Split will enhance liquidity by bringing the market price of the common shares into a more accessible range for a broader group of potential investors, thereby potentially increasing investor interest in its business. The timing of the Share Split will be communicated by the Company in a future release.
