Teras Announces Adoption of Advance Notice By-Law
June 06 2014 - 1:15PM
Access Wire
Calgary, AB / ACCESSWIRE / June 6, 2014 / Teras Resources Inc. ("Teras" or
the "Company") (TRA.V): announced today that the Board
of Directors of Teras has approved the adoption of an advance
notice by-law (the "Advance
Notice By-law"), which requires advance notice to
Teras in circumstances where nominations of persons
for election to the Board are made by shareholders other than
pursuant to a requisition of a meeting made pursuant to the
provisions of the Business
Corporations Act (Alberta) ("ABCA") or a shareholder proposal
made pursuant to the provisions of the
ABCA.
Among other things, the
Advance Notice By-law fixes a deadline by which
shareholders must submit a notice of director nominations to the
Chief Executive Officer of Teras prior to any annual or special
meeting of shareholders where directors are to be elected and sets
forth the information that a shareholder must include in such
notice for the notice to be valid. No person will be eligible for
election as a director of Teras unless nominated in accordance with
the provisions of the Advance Notice By-law.
In the case of an annual
general meeting of shareholders, notice to the Chief Executive
Officer of Teras must be made not less than 30 nor more than 65
days prior to the date of the annual general meeting of
shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual
general meeting of shareholders is called for at a date that is
less than 50 days after the date (the "Notice Date") on which the first
public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made,
notice by the nominating shareholder must be given not later than
the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the Notice
Date.
In the case of a special
meeting (which is not also an annual general meeting) of
shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors (whether
or not called for other purposes), notice to the Chief Executive
Officer of Teras must be made not later than the close of business
on the fifteenth (15th) day following the date on which the first
public announcement of the date of the special meeting of
shareholders was made.
The purpose of the
Advance Notice By-law is to foster a variety of
interests of the shareholders and Teras by ensuring that all
shareholders, including those participating in a meeting by proxy
rather than in person, receive adequate notice of the nominations
to be considered at a meeting and can thereby exercise their voting
rights in an informed manner. In addition, the Advance
Notice By-law is intended to provide a reasonable
framework for shareholders to nominate directors and should assist
in facilitating an orderly and efficient meeting
process.
The Advance
Notice By-law is effective immediately. At the next
annual general and special meeting of shareholders of Teras, the
shareholders will be asked to confirm and ratify the
Advance Notice By-law. A copy of the
Advance Notice By-law has been filed under Teras's SEDAR
profile at www.sedar.com.
About Teras
Teras is focused on developing
its Cahuilla project located in Imperial County, California. The
project encompasses an area of at least 3 km by 1.5 km and Teras
believes that the Cahuilla project has the potential to develop
into a mining operation consisting of altered and mineralized
sedimentary and volcanic host rocks with numerous sheeted
high-grade quartz veins. Teras filed a NI 43-101 compliant
technical report with an indicated resource of 1.0 million ounces
of gold and 11.9 million ounces of silver on its Cahuilla project
(70 million tons at an average grade of 0.015 ounces per ton gold
and 0.17 ounces per ton silver with a cut-off of 0.008 ounces per
ton gold) and inferred class of 10 million tons grading 0.011 opt
gold and 0.10 opt silver. Gold equivalent ounces are 1.2 million
ounces in indicated class and 130,000 ounces in inferred class
using a ratio of 55 silver ounces to 1 gold ounce.
Dale A Vitone P. Eng.,
registered with the Association of Professional Engineers of
Ontario, Alberta and Northwest Territories and a director of Teras,
is the Company's nominated qualified person responsible for
monitoring the supervision and quality control of the programs
completed on the Company's properties. Mr. Vitone has reviewed and
verified the mining scientific and technical information contained
