CALGARY, April 21, 2020 /CNW/ - Crescent Point Energy
Corp. ("Crescent Point" or the "Company") (TSX and NYSE: CPG) will
now hold its upcoming Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders
(the "AGM") solely by virtual means.
The AGM will be held at the originally scheduled date and time
on May 14, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. MT, but it will now be conducted by
way of live audio webcast. The timing and process for voting by
proxy remains unchanged and are described in detail in the
information circular or the AGM notice previously mailed to
shareholders. Shareholders are reminded that completed proxy forms
must be received no later than 10:00 a.m.
MT on May 12, 2020.
Crescent Point is proceeding with the AGM solely by virtual
means due to the current public health crisis as a result of the
COVID-19 pandemic and the order of Alberta's Chief Medical Officer of Health
prohibiting indoor gatherings in excess of 15 people and requiring
minimum social distancing. The Board of Directors and management
believe that a virtual AGM will mitigate health and safety risks to
the community, shareholders, employees and other stakeholders.
As Crescent Point's election to hold the AGM solely by virtual
means is based on the current health crisis, the Company expects to
hold its 2021 annual meeting of shareholders in its usual fashion,
by way of in person meeting.
Registered shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders will be
able to attend the AGM, ask questions and vote, all in real time
online at https://web.lumiagm.com/220957268 by entering the
15-digit Control Number provided in their meeting materials, and
the password "crescent2020" (case sensitive). Non-registered
(beneficial) shareholders (being shareholders who hold their common
shares through a broker, investment dealer, bank, trust company,
custodian, nominee or other intermediary) who have not duly
appointed themselves as proxyholder will be able to attend the AGM
at the link above as guests, but will not be able to vote or ask
questions at the meeting. Crescent Point recommends shareholders
log into the webcast at least 10 minutes in advance of the virtual
meeting start time to ensure connectivity.
The majority of shareholders vote in advance of the annual
meeting by proxy using the various voting channels made available
by the Company, all of which will remain available. We encourage
shareholders to continue voting in advance by proxy.
Full details on how to vote, change or revoke a vote, appoint a
proxyholder, attend the virtual AGM, ask questions and other
general proxy matters are available in the information circular
dated April 2, 2020 and the
Virtual AGM User Guide available on the Company's website
and System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval
website.
