VANCOUVER, May 15, 2020 /CNW/ - Westshore Terminals Investment Corporation (TSX: WTE) (the "Corporation") announced today that similar to other public companies, it will take COVID-19 precautionary measures for the Corporation's Annual General Meeting ("AGM") on June 16, 2020. The changes are intended to reduce potential risks associated with travel and large gatherings, and to focus on the health and safety of our employees, suppliers and other stakeholders.

The AGM will be held at Westshore Terminals located at 1 Roberts Bank, Delta, British Columbia. In view of the strong recommendations from British Columbia's Chief Medical Health Officer to limit gatherings, arrangements are being made only to permit  certain officers of the Corporation, including the proxyholders named in the form of proxy, to access the meeting site and attend the AGM in person.  This will ensure compliance with requirements relating to workplaces and adherence to required social distancing. 

The revised event format for the AGM will include a one-way web and telephone conference. Shareholders can email questions prior to the AGM to [email protected] but will not otherwise be able to vote or speak at, or otherwise participate in, the AGM via the web or telephone conference. All shareholders of the Corporation are encouraged to vote on matters at the AGM by proxy, appointing a management proxyholder.  This method of conducting the AGM should not impair the exercise by shareholders of their right to vote. 

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, the Corporation will continue to monitor the circumstances of the virus and any recommendations or directives of government and health authorities and will advise shareholders as necessary of any further updates regarding the AGM.
