Excerpt from Prospectus Supplement
The holders of the Series 11 Shares will be entitled to receive fixed cumulative preferential cash dividends, if, as and when declared by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”), payable quarterly on the last business day of each of March, June, September and December at an annual rate of $1.4375 per Series 11 Share for the initial period from and including the Closing Date (as defined herein) to, but excluding, June 30, 2024 (the “Initial Fixed Rate Period”). The initial dividend, if declared, will be payable on June 28, 2019 and will be $0.1772 per Series 11 Share, based on the anticipated closing of the Offering on May 16, 2019.
For each five‐year period after the Initial Fixed Rate Period (each, a “Subsequent Fixed Rate Period”), the holders of the Series 11 Shares will be entitled to receive fixed cumulative preferential cash dividends, if, as and when declared by the Board of Directors, payable quarterly on the last business day of each of March, June, September and December at the Annual Fixed Dividend Rate (as defined herein). The Company will determine on the 30th day prior to the first day of a Subsequent Fixed Rate Period, the annual fixed dividend rate applicable to that Subsequent Fixed Rate Period (the “Annual Fixed Dividend Rate”). Written notice of the Annual Fixed Dividend Rate for the upcoming Subsequent Fixed Rate Period will be provided by the Company to the registered holders on the 30th day prior to the first day of a Subsequent Fixed Rate Period. The Annual Fixed Dividend Rate will be equal to the sum of the Government of Canada Bond Yield (as defined herein) on the 30th day prior to the first day of a Subsequent Fixed Rate Period plus 4.15%, provided that, in any event, such rate shall not be less than 5.75%. See “Details of the Offering” in the Prospectus Supplement.
Option to Convert into Cumulative Floating Rate Preference Shares, Series 12
Holders of the Series 11 Shares will have the right, at their option, to convert their Series 11 Shares into Cumulative Floating Rate Preference Shares, Series 12 (the “Series 12 Shares”) on the basis of one Series 12 Share for each Series 11 Share, subject to certain conditions, on June 30, 2024 and on June 30 every five years thereafter. Series 11 Shares will be entitled to floating rate cumulative preferential cash dividends, if, as and when declared by the Board of Directors, payable quarterly on the last business day of each of March, June, September and December in an amount per Series 11 Share determined by multiplying the applicable Floating Quarterly Dividend Rate (as defined herein) by $25.00. The Floating Quarterly Dividend Rate for any Quarterly Floating Rate Period (as defined herein) will be equal to the sum of the T‐Bill Rate (as defined herein) plus 4.15% per annum (calculated on the basis of the actual number of days in the applicable Quarterly Floating Rate Period divided by 365 or 366, depending upon the actual number of days in the applicable year) determined on the Floating Rate Calculation Date (as defined herein). See “Details of the Offering” in the Prospectus Supplement
The Series 11 Shares and Series 12 Shares are series of shares in the same class. The conversion right entitles holders to elect periodically which of the two series they wish to hold and does not entitle holders to receive a different class or type of securities. Other than the different dividend rights and redemption rights attached thereto, the Series 11 Shares and Series 12 Shares are identical in all material respects.
Eligible Dividend Designation
Dividends are 100 per cent eligible dividends as defined by the Income Tax Act. Under this legislation, individual residents in Canada may be entitled to enhanced dividend tax credits that reduce the income tax otherwise payable.
