"To implement the Plan, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the issue, on February 19, 1999, of one Right in respect of each common share of the Company outstanding to holders of record at 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on February 18, 1999. For administrative convenience, the Rights will trade with the common shares and be represented by certificates representing common shares."
