Notice of Annual and Special Meeting of Stockholders

To all Stockholders of Security Devices International Inc.:

You are invited to attend the 2015 Annual and Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Security Devices International Inc. (the “Company” or “SDI”). The Annual Meeting will be held at the Holiday Inn, 590 Argus Road, Oakville, ON L6J 3J3 Canada, on September 16, 2015, at 10:00 am EST. The purposes of the Annual Meeting are:

  3.

To ratify the appointment of Schwartz, Levitsky, Feldman, LLP as independent registered public accountant (the “auditors”) for the Company to hold office until the close of the 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and to authorize the Company’s Board of Directors to fix the auditors’ remuneration;

The Board of Directors has fixed August 5, 2015 as the record date for the Annual Meeting. Only stockholders of the Company of record at the close of business on that date will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. A list of stockholders as of August 5, 2015 will be available for inspection by any stockholder at our principal place of business, 300-125 Lakeshore Road East, Oakville, Ontario L6J 1H3 Canada, starting September 4, 2015, during normal business hours, and at the Annual Meeting.

Accompanying this notice of meeting is the management information circular (the “Circular”). Please review the Circular carefully and in full prior to voting in relation to the matters set out above as the Circular has been prepared to help you make an informed decision on such matters.

Shareholders are invited to attend the Annual Meeting. Record shareholders who are unable to attend the Annual Meeting in person are requested to vote by mail by completing, dating and signing the enclosed form of proxy (the “Proxy Card”) and send it in the enclosed envelope to the Company's co-transfer agent, Equity Financial Trust Company*, 200 University Avenue, Suite 300, Toronto, Ontario M5H 4H1, or vote via the Internet, by going to www.voteproxyonline.com and following the instructions on the website, or by fax to Proxy Department 416-595-9593. Non-record shareholders who receive these materials through their broker or other intermediary should follow the instructions provided by their broker or intermediary.

*Note: TMX Equity Transfer Services is operating the transfer agency and corporate trust business in the name of Equity Financial Trust Company for a transition period.

4


For your vote to be effective, your voting instructions must be received by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) or by the Company’s transfer agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on September 14, 2015, or, in the case of any adjournment of the Annual Meeting, not less than 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, prior to the time of the rescheduled meeting. The Chair of the Annual Meeting may, at his discretion, accept late proxies or waive the time limit for deposit of proxies, but is under no obligation to accept or reject any late proxy. If you have voted by proxy using the Proxy Card, via fax or the Internet or by phone, any subsequent vote by proxy through any of these methods will cancel any other proxy you may have previously submitted in connection with the Annual Meeting, and only a later dated proxy received prior to the deadline will be counted.

IMPORTANT

Whether or not you expect to attend the Annual Meeting, please sign and return the enclosed proxy promptly. If you decide to attend the Annual Meeting, you may, if you wish, revoke the proxy and vote your shares of common stock in person.

By Order of the Board of Directors,

 

Dean Thrasher, Secretary

     Proxy Statement

__________________________________________________________

ANNUAL AND SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 16, 2015

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this proxy statement to “SDI,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Security Devices International Inc.

The Annual and Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) will be held at the Holiday Inn, 590 Argus Road, Oakville, ON L6J 3J3 Canada, on September 16, 2015, at 10:00am EST. We are providing the enclosed proxy materials and form of proxy in connection with the solicitation by our Board of Directors (the “Board”) of proxies for this Annual Meeting. This proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) will first be mailed to holders of our voting stock on or about August 25, 2015.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please promptly provide your voting instructions. Your promptness in voting will assist in the expeditious and orderly processing of the proxies and in ensuring that a quorum is present. If you vote your proxy, you may nevertheless attend the Annual Meeting and vote your shares in person if you wish. Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker or other nominee and you wish to vote in person at the Meeting, you must follow the instructions provided to you by your broker or such other nominee. If you want to revoke your instructions at a later time prior to the vote for any reason, you may do so in the manner described in this Proxy Statement.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT PROXY MATERIALS AND VOTING

Why am I receiving this Proxy Statement and proxy card?

You are receiving this Proxy Statement and proxy card because you were a stockholder of record at the close of business on August 5, 2015, and are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. This Proxy Statement describes issues on which we would like you, as a stockholder, to vote. It provides information on these issues so that you can make an informed decision. You do not need to attend the Annual Meeting to vote your shares of common stock.

When you sign the proxy card you appoint Gregory Sullivan, our Chief Executive Officer, and if Mr. Sullivan is unavailable, Dean Thrasher, our Chief Operating Officer and Secretary, as your representative at the Annual Meeting. As your representatives, they will vote your shares of common stock at the Annual Meeting (or any adjournments or postponements) as you have instructed them on your proxy card. With proxy voting, your shares will be voted whether or not you attend the Annual Meeting. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, it is a good idea to complete, sign and return your proxy card in advance of the Annual Meeting, just in case your plans change.

If an issue comes up for vote at the Annual Meeting (or any adjournments or postponements) that is not described in this Proxy Statement, your representative will vote your shares of common stock, under your proxy, at their discretion, subject to any limitations imposed by law.

When is the record date?

The Board has fixed August 5, 2015, as the record date for the Annual Meeting. Only holders of shares of our voting stock as of the close of business on that date will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

How many shares are outstanding?

As of August 4, 2015, we had 54,615,641 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.


What am I voting on?

You are being asked to vote on the following:

  1.

the election of six Directors to serve until the close of the 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (“Proposal No. 1”).

     
  2.

the ratification of the appointment of Schwartz, Levitsky, Feldman, LLP (“SLF”) as auditors for the Company to hold office until the close of the 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and to authorization of the Company’s Board of Directors to fix the auditors’ remuneration (“Proposal No. 2”);

     
  3.

the approval of an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to prohibit the issuance of shares of preferred stock having multiple voting attributes (“Proposal No. 3”);

     
  4.

the confirmation of an amendment to the Company’s by-laws concerning the quorum required to hold a meeting of shareholders (“Proposal No. 4”);

     
  5.

an advisory vote on compensation of our named executive officers (“Proposal No. 5”); and

     
  6.

an advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on compensation of our named executive officers (“Proposal No. 6”).

The Board recommends that you vote FOR: (i) the election of the six Director nominees proposed by the Board in this Proxy Statement; (ii) the appointment of SLF as our auditors and the authorization of the Board to fix the auditors’ remuneration; (iii) the approval of the amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation; and (iv) the confirmation of the amendment to the Company’s by-laws.

In addition, you may be asked to vote in respect of any other matters that may properly be brought before the Meeting. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board is not aware of any such other matters.

A simple majority of votes cast at the Meeting, whether in person or by proxy, in favor of any of Proposal No. 1, Proposal No. 2, Proposal No. 4, Proposal No. 5 and Proposal No. 6 will constitute approval of any such proposal submitted to a vote. A two-thirds majority of votes cast at the Meeting, whether in person or by proxy, in favor of any of Proposal No. 3 will constitute approval of such proposal submitted to a vote.

How many votes do I get?

Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote. No cumulative rights are authorized and dissenters’ rights are not applicable to any of the matters being voted upon.

How do I vote?

The voting process is different depending on whether you are a record (registered) or non-record shareholder.

You are a record shareholder if your name appears on your share certificate.
   

You are a non-record shareholder if your shares are held on your behalf by a bank, trust company, securities broker, trustee or other intermediary. This means the shares are registered in your intermediary’s name, and you are the beneficial owner. Most shareholders are non-record shareholders.

If you are a non-record shareholder, your intermediary will send you a voting instruction form or proxy form with this Proxy Statement. This form will instruct the intermediary how to vote your shares at the Meeting on your behalf. You should carefully follow the instructions provided by the intermediary and contact the intermediary promptly if you need help. The Company intends to pay for delivery of proxy materials to beneficial owners.

7


If you do not intend to attend the Meeting and vote in person, mark your voting instructions on the voting instruction form or proxy form, sign it, and return it as instructed by your intermediary. Your intermediary may have also provided you with the option of voting by telephone or fax or through the Internet.

If you wish to vote in person at the Meeting, follow the instructions provided by your intermediary. Your intermediary may have also provided you with the option of appointing yourself or someone else to attend and vote on your behalf at the Meeting through the Internet. When you arrive at the Meeting, please register with the Inspector of Elections.

Your intermediary must receive your voting instructions in sufficient time for your intermediary to act on them prior to the deadline for the deposit of proxies of 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on September 14, 2015, or at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time of the scheduled Meeting.

Record shareholders

If you are a record shareholder, a Proxy Card is enclosed with this Proxy Statement to enable you to vote, or to appoint a proxyholder to vote on your behalf, at the Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting, you may vote your shares by proxy by any one of the following methods:

By mail: Mark, sign and date your Proxy Card and send to TMX Equity Transfer Services (TMX Equity), 200 University Avenue, Suite 300, Toronto, Ontario M5H 4H1. TMX Equity must receive your Proxy Card not later than 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on September 14, 2015 in order for your vote to be counted. If the Meeting is adjourned or postponed, TMX Equity must receive your Proxy Card at least 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, before the rescheduled Meeting.

By Fascilime: Fax your Proxy Card to the attention of the Proxy Department 416-595-9593

Via the Internet: Go to www.voteproxyonline.com and follow the instructions on the website prior to 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on September 14, 2015.

We provide Internet proxy voting to allow you to vote your common stock online, with procedures designed to ensure the authenticity and correctness of your proxy vote instructions. However, please be aware that you must bear any costs associated with your Internet access, such as usage charges from Internet access providers and telephone companies.

Can stockholders vote in person at the Annual Meeting?

We will pass out written ballots to anyone who wants to vote at the Annual Meeting. If you hold your shares of common stock through a brokerage account but do not have a physical share certificate, or the shares are registered in someone else’s name, you must request a legal proxy from your stockbroker or the registered owner to vote at the Annual Meeting.

What if I change my mind after I return my proxy?

If you are a non-registered Shareholder, you can revoke your prior voting instructions by providing new instructions on a voting instruction form or proxy form with a later date, or at a later time in the case of voting by telephone or through the Internet. Otherwise, contact your Intermediary if you want to revoke your proxy or change your voting instructions, or if you change your mind and want to vote in person. Any new voting instructions given to intermediaries in connection with the revocation with proxies must be received in sufficient time to allow intermediaries to act on such instructions prior to the deadline for the deposit of proxies of 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) September 14, 2015, or at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) prior to the time of the rescheduled Meeting.

If you are a record shareholder, you may revoke any proxy that you have given until the time of the Meeting by voting again over the Internet as instructed above, by signing and dating a new Proxy Card and submitting it as instructed above, by giving written notice of such revocation to the Corporate Secretary of the Company at our address, by revoking it in person at the Annual Meeting, or by voting by ballot at the Annual Meeting. If you choose to submit a proxy multiple times whether by over the Internet or by mail, or a combination thereof, only your latest vote, not revoked and received prior to 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on September 14, 2015 (or 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, before the rescheduled Meeting) will be counted. A record shareholder participating in person, in a vote by ballot at the Meeting, will automatically revoke any proxy previously given by that shareholder regarding business considered by that vote. However, attendance at the Annual Meeting by a registered shareholder who has voted by proxy does not alone revoke such proxy.

8


How many votes do you need to hold the Annual Meeting?

To conduct the Annual Meeting, we must have a quorum, which means that one-third of our outstanding voting shares as of the record date must be present at the Annual Meeting. Based on 54,615,641 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of August 4, 2015, 18,205,214 shares of common stock must be present, in person or by proxy, for a quorum to be present at the Annual Meeting.

What if I abstain from voting?

Abstentions with respect to a proposal are counted for the purposes of establishing a quorum. If a quorum is present, abstentions will not be included in vote totals.

Since our bylaws provide that approval of a proposal at an Annual Meeting of the stockholders is by the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting shares present, in person or by proxy, at an Annual Meeting of the stockholders, a properly executed proxy card marked ABSTAIN with respect to a proposal will have the same effect as voting AGAINST that proposal. However, as described below, election of Directors is by a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. A properly executed proxy card marked WITHHELD with respect to the election of Directors will not be voted and will not count FOR any of the Nominees for which the vote was withheld.

What effect does a broker non-vote have?

Brokers and other intermediaries, holding shares of common stock in street name for their customers, are generally required to vote the shares of common stock in the manner directed by their customers. If their customers do not give any direction, brokers may vote the shares of common stock on routine matters, but not on non-routine matters (a “broker non-vote”). Proposal No. 1, Proposal No. 3, Proposal No. 4, Proposal No. 5 and Proposal No. 6 are non-routine matters. Accordingly, if you have not provided your broker with voting directions on these proposals, your broker will not be able to vote your shares with respect to the election of directors, amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation, the ratification of the amendment to the Company’s by-laws, the advisory vote on compensation of the named executive officers and the advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on compensation of our named executive officers. Proposal No. 2, the ratification of the appointment of Schwartz Levitsky Feldman LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is considered a routine matter, and brokers will be able to vote your shares if you have not provided voting directions with respect to Proposal No. 2.

Any shares of common stock represented at the Annual Meeting but not voted (whether by abstention, broker non-vote or otherwise) will have no impact in the election of Directors or the frequency of the advisory vote on compensation of our named executive officers, except to the extent that the failure to vote for an individual (or frequency) results in another individual (or frequency) receiving a larger proportion of votes cast. Any shares of common stock represented at the Annual Meeting but not voted (whether by abstention, broker non-vote or otherwise) with respect to Proposal No. 2, Proposal No. 3, Proposal No. 4 and Proposal 5 will have the same effect as a vote against such proposal. In recognition of our desire to have every stockholder vote count, we encourage our stockholders to instruct their brokers to vote their shares.

How many votes are needed to elect Directors and approve other proposals?

Proposal No. 1: The Nominees for election as Directors at the Annual Meeting will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The Nominees with the most votes will be elected. A properly executed proxy card marked WITHHELD with respect to the election of Directors will not be voted and will not count FOR or AGAINST any of the Nominees.

Proposal No. 2: The ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accountant will be approved if a majority of the voting shares present at the Annual Meeting vote FOR the proposal. A properly executed proxy card marked ABSTAIN with respect to this proposal will have the same effect as a vote cast AGAINST this proposal.

Proposal No. 3: The amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation will be approved if two-thirds of the voting shares present at the Annual Meeting vote FOR the proposal. The confirmation of the amendment to the by-law will be approved if a majority of the voting shares present at the Annual Meeting vote FOR the proposal. A properly executed proxy card marked ABSTAIN with respect to this proposal will have the same effect as a vote cast AGAINST this proposal.

9


Proposal No. 4: The confirmation of the amendment to the by-law will be approved if a majority of the voting shares present at the Annual Meeting vote FOR the proposal. A properly executed proxy card marked ABSTAIN with respect to this proposal will have the same effect as a vote cast AGAINST this proposal.

Proposal No. 5: The advisory vote on compensation of our named executive officers will be approved if a majority of the voting shares present at the Annual Meeting vote FOR the proposal. A properly executed proxy card marked ABSTAIN with respect to this proposal will have the same effect as a vote cast AGAINST this proposal.

Proposal No. 6: The advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on compensation of our named executive officers will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. A properly executed proxy card marked ABSTAIN with respect to this proposal will not be voted and will not count FOR or AGAINST any frequency.

Will my shares of common stock be voted if I do not sign and return my Proxy Card?

If your shares of common stock are held through a brokerage account, your brokerage firm, under certain circumstances, may vote your shares of common stock. See “What effect does a broker non-vote have?” above for a discussion of the matters on which your brokerage firm may vote your shares of common stock.

If your shares of common stock are registered in your name, and you do not sign and return your proxy card, your shares of common stock will not be voted at the Annual Meeting, unless you attend the Annual Meeting and vote your shares of common stock.

How are votes counted?

Your shares of common stock will be voted as you indicate on your proxy card. If you just sign your proxy card with no further instructions, your shares of common stock will be voted (a) FOR each nominee for election to the Board for terms expiring in 2016, (b) FOR each of Proposal No. 2, Proposal No. 3, Proposal No. 4, and Proposal No. 5, and (c) for the “three (3) years” option with respect to the advisory proposal on the frequency of the shareholder voting on executive compensation.

Voting results will be tabulated and certified by the Inspector of Elections.

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

We will publish the final results in a current report filing on Form 8-K with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within four (4) business days of the Annual Meeting.

Who will pay for the costs of soliciting proxies?

We will bear the cost of soliciting proxies. In an effort to have as large a representation at the Annual Meeting as possible, our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies by telephone or in person in certain circumstances. These individuals will receive no additional compensation for their services other than their regular salaries. Additionally, we may hire a proxy solicitor to help reach the quorum requirement. We will pay a reasonable fee in relation to these services. Upon request, we will reimburse brokers, dealers, banks, voting trustees and their nominees who are holders of record of our common stock on the record date for the reasonable expenses incurred for mailing copies of the proxy materials to the beneficial owners of such shares.

When are stockholder proposals due for the 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders?

In order to be considered for inclusion in the 2016 proxy statement, stockholder proposals must be submitted in writing to our Secretary, Dean Thrasher, at Security Devices International Inc., 300-125 Lakeshore Road East, Oakville, ON L6J 1H3 Canada, and received no later than July 1, 2016, provided that this date may be changed in the event that the date of the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in calendar year 2016 is changed by more than 30 days from the date of this Annual Meeting.

Are there any proposals currently anticipated for the 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders?

10


There are no proposals currently anticipated for the 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

How can I obtain a copy of the Annual Report on Form 10-K or our Audited Financial Statements?

Our Audited Financial Statements are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and are available on the Internet at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov, along with our other periodic and current reports. At the written request of any stockholder who owns shares of common stock on the record date, we will provide to such stockholder, without charge, a paper copy of our Financial Statements as filed with the SEC, but not including exhibits. If requested, we will provide copies of the exhibits for a reasonable fee. Requests for additional paper copies of the Financial Statements should be mailed to: 600-4830 W. Kennedy Blvd., Tampa, FL, USA 33609 Attention: Allen Ezer, Executive Vice President.

We also have a comprehensive internal risk framework, which facilitates performance of risk oversight by the Board and the Audit Committee. Our risk management framework is designed to:

Provide that risks are identified, monitored, reported, and priced properly;
   
Define and communicate the types and amount of risk the Company is willing to take; and
   
Promote a strong risk management culture that encourages a focus on risk-adjusted performance.

Employees, officers and Directors are required to maintain an understanding of, and ensure that they comply with, the Code of Ethics.

Employees, officers and Directors are required to report violations of the Code of Ethics to the Chief Executive Officer or the Chair of the Board. The Board is not aware of any breach of the Code of Ethics by any Director or officer during the period since its adoption on January 14, 2015.

Overview of the Company’s Stock Option Plan

Effective May 31, 2013, the Company adopted its incentive stock option plan (the “Stock Option Plan”), which replaced the prior stock option and stock bonus plans, as ratified by the Company’s shareholders at the Company’s 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. As a result, all outstanding options to purchase common stock granted by the Company under the prior plans are now governed by the Stock Option Plan and the Company’s prior plans (an Incentive Stock Option Plan, a Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, and a Stock Bonus Plan) have been terminated.

We have not granted any options which are subject to ratification by stockholders. The table below shows securities issued under our Stock Option Plan as of August 4, 2015.

(1)           As a condition precedent to the TSXV issuing its final acceptance of listing of the common stock on the TSXV, all of the warrants previously issued by the Company as payment for services (the “Compensation Warrants”), being warrants to purchase 4,212,045 shares of common stock, were counted as if they had been issued under the Stock Option Plan, thereby reducing the number of options which may otherwise be granted. As at August 4, 2015 there were 1,892,812 options to purchase common stock still outstanding.

Who is eligible to participate in the Company’s Stock Option Plan?

Any employee, officer, director, consultant, independent contractor, or director of or providing services to us or any parent, affiliate, or subsidiary of us is eligible to be designated a participant in the Stock Option Plan.

Currently, this includes, but is not limited to, the following directors and executives:

Gregory Sullivan, Chief Executive Officer, Director
Rakesh Malhotra, Chief Financial Officer

25



Dean Thrasher, Chief Operating Officer
Allen Ezer, Executive Vice-President, Director

In total there are approximately 11 officers, directors, employees, and consultants eligible under the Stock Option Plan.

What benefit amounts will be received under the Stock Option Plan?

The following is a summary of the current options outstanding under our Stock Option Plan, to current officers and directors:

Directors & Officers

PROPOSAL 3 — AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION OF THE COMPANY

In addition to common stock, the Company is currently authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as may be determined by SDI's Board of Directors. The voting powers and preferences, the relative rights of each such series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each series are to be established by the Board of Directors prior to the issuance of any shares in a series.

While not currently anticipated, SDI's directors are able to issue preferred stock with multiple votes per share and dividend rights which would have priority over any dividends paid with respect to the holders of SDI’s common stock. The issuance of preferred stock with these rights may make the removal of management difficult even if the removal would be considered beneficial to shareholders generally, and may have the effect of limiting shareholder participation in transactions such as mergers or tender offers if these transactions are not favored by SDI's management. As of the date of this proxy statement SDI had not issued any shares of preferred stock and as of the date of this proxy statement SDI’s Board has no intention to issue any shares of preferred stock.

As a condition precedent to the TSX Venture Exchange listing the Company’s common stock on that stock exchange, SDI provided an undertaking to (i) not issue any shares of preferred stock with multiple votes per share for so long as the common stock may be listed on the TSXV; and (ii) present to its shareholders for approval an amendment to SDI’s articles to prohibit the issuance of shares of preferred stock having multiple voting attributes.

At the Annual Meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider and, if thought appropriate, to approve a resolution prohibiting the issuance of shares of preferred stock having multiple voting attributes. The text of the resolution which management intends to place before the Annual Meeting for approval is as follows:

“BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Certificate of Incorporation of this corporation be amended by changing the Article thereof numbered "4D" so that, as amended, that Article shall be and read as follows:

‘D. The preferred shares may be issued in one or more series. The designations, powers, rights, preferences, qualifications, restrictions and limitations of each series of the preferred stock shall be established from time to time by the Corporation's Board of Directors, in accordance with the Delaware Corporation Law, provided that no series of preferred stock shall carry the right to more than one vote for each share of such series”

26


PROPOSAL 4 — AMENDMENT TO THE BY-LAWS OF THE COMPANY

Under Delaware Corporation Law, a quorum at any meeting of shareholders consists of the representation in person or by proxy of not less than a majority of the shares of the outstanding capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote at such meeting, unless the articles of the corporation provide otherwise. If the articles provide otherwise, the quorum requirement may be reduced to one-third of the shares of the outstanding capital stock.

Our by-laws provide that the quorum requirement for an annual or special meeting of shareholders is the representation in person or by proxy of not less than one-third of the shares of the outstanding capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote at such meeting. The by-laws further provide that, if a quorum is not present at a meeting, the meeting may be adjourned for a period not exceeding 60 days and the quorum required at such adjourned meeting shall be stockholders, present either in person or by proxy, entitled to vote a majority of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting.

The effect of the Company’s by-laws is that the quorum requirement increases from one-third of the shares of the outstanding capital stock to one-half of those shares if a shareholders meeting is adjourned for failure to achieve the quorum requirement. Management believes that such an increase should not occur and that instead the by-laws should set the minimum permitted quorum requirement at any adjourned meeting of shareholders (being one-third of the shares).

On July 9, 2015, the board of directors of the Company approved an amendment to the by-laws reducing the quorum requirement to one-third of the shares of the outstanding capital stock of the corporation at any adjourned meeting of shareholders. That by-law amendment took effect upon approval by the directors but the Directors believe that it is appropriate to seek confirmation of that amendment by shareholders at the Annual Meeting. If shareholders reject the confirmation of the by-law amendment, the by-law amendment will become ineffective as of the date of the Annual Meeting.

At the Annual Meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider and, if thought appropriate, to confirm the amendment to the by-laws. The text of the resolution which management intends to place before the Annual Meeting for approval is as follows:

“RESOLVED THAT the amendment to section 7 of the by-laws of the Company shown underlined below is hereby confirmed:

A quorum at any annual or special meeting shall consist of the representation in person or by proxy of one-third in number of shares of the outstanding capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting. In the event a quorum is not present, the meeting may be adjourned by those present for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days at any one adjournment; and no further notice of the meeting or its adjournment shall be required. The stockholders entitled to vote, present either in person or by proxy at such adjourned meeting, shall, if equal to one-third of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting, constitute a quorum, and the votes of a majority of those present in numbers of shares entitled to vote shall be deemed the act of the shareholders at such adjourned meeting.”

PROPOSAL 5 — ADVISORY APPROVAL OF THE COMPANY’S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The following proposal is an advisory, non-binding vote on the compensation of the Company’s “Named Executive Officers,” or a “Say-on-Pay” proposal, as required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act, which was added by Section 951 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and by rules of the United States Securities And Exchange Commission (“the SEC”). The Company presents the resolution set forth below for approval by the Shareholders.

We believe that our compensation and procedures are competitive, are focused on pay for performance principles and are well aligned with the long-term interests of the Shareholders. We encourage you to review the compensation of our Named Executive Officers as described in this Proxy Statement and Information Circular under “Executive Compensation.”

We seek to attract and retain experienced, qualified executives. We believe this is critical to our success. The Board of Directors believes the Company’s compensation policies and procedures achieve this objective and recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the proposal. Specifically, Shareholders are being asked to approve the following resolution:

27


“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement and Information Circular pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, is hereby APPROVED.”

Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon our Board of Directors and may not be construed as overruling any decision by the Board of Directors or create or imply any additional fiduciary duty by the Board of Directors. However, the Board of Directors values constructive dialogue with our Shareholders on executive compensation and other important governance topics and encourages all Shareholders to vote their Shares. The Board of Directors will review the voting results and take them into consideration when making future decisions regarding our executive compensation programs.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE NON-BINDING RESOLUTION APPROVING THE COMPENSATION OF THE COMPANY’S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AS DISCLOSED PURSUANT TO THE COMPENSATION DISCLOSURE RULES OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

PROPOSAL 6 — ADVISORY VOTE ON FREQUENCY OF FUTURE SHAREHOLDER VOTING ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The following proposal is an advisory, non-binding vote on the frequency of Shareholder votes on executive compensation, or a “Say-on-Frequency” proposal, as required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act, which was added by Section 951 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and by rules of the SEC. We are asking our Shareholders to vote on a Say-on-Frequency vote at our 2015 annual meeting.

In Proposal 5, we ask our Shareholders to vote on the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers. Proposal 5 is commonly called a “say-on-pay” proposal. In Proposal 6, we ask our Shareholders to cast an advisory non-binding vote on how often the Company should include a say-on-pay proposal in its proxy materials for future annual Shareholder meetings or other meetings of the Shareholders at which directors will be elected and for which the rules of the SEC require executive compensation disclosure pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K. The vote on this proposal is non-binding on the Company but will be considered by the Company as it administers its executive compensation program. Shareholders may vote for a frequency of say-on-pay votes of one, two or three years or may abstain from voting. The Board of Directors recommends that a non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of its executive officers as described in its annual proxy statements occur every three years. The Board of Directors believes that holding this vote every three years will be the most effective timeframe because it will provide the Board of Directors with sufficient time to evaluate the results of a say-on-pay vote, to engage Shareholders following such a vote, if appropriate, to understand the concerns that the Company’s Shareholders may have and to implement any changes the Board of Directors considers appropriate in response to the vote results.

You may cast your vote on your preferred voting frequency by choosing the option of one year, two years, three years or abstain from voting when you vote in response to the resolution set forth below.

“RESOLVED, that the Company should include an advisory vote on the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s compensation disclosure rules (as disclosed in the Proxy Statement and Information Circular pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K) once every one year, two years, or three years.”

Shareholders should note that their views on compensation are not binding on the Company. This vote will not be binding on the Board of Directors and may not be construed as overruling any decision by the Board of Directors or create or imply any additional fiduciary duty by the Board of Directors.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE “THREE (3) YEARS” OPTION WITH RESPECT TO THE ADVISORY PROPOSAL ON THE FREQUENCY OF THE SHAREHOLDERS’ VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
