(Burlington, ON) Tempus Capital Inc. (“Tempus” or the “Company”) announces that due to logistics and delays caused by the COVID-19 virus, the Company is relying on the exemption provided in Ontario Instrument 51-502 (Temporary Exemption from Certain Corporate Finance Requirements) of the Ontario Securities Commission (and similar exemptions provided by the securities commissions in British Columbia, Alberta) to postpone the filing of its interim unaudited consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2020, as required by Section 4.2 of National Instrument 51-102 (Continuous Disclosure Obligations), and its related management’s discussion and analysis for the period ended March 31, 2020, as required by Section 5.1(2) of NI 51-102 (the “Interim Documents”).
According to the Ontario Instrument, during the period from March 23, 2020 to June 1, 2020, a person or company required to make certain filings as described in the Ontario Instrument has an additional 45 days from the deadline otherwise applicable under Ontario securities laws to make the filing. Tempus expects to file the Interim Documents by no later than the extended deadline of June 13, 2020.
Until the Company has filed the Interim Documents, members of the Company’s management and other insiders will observe a trading blackout consistent with the principles in Section 9 of National Policy 11-207 – Failure- to-File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions.
Tempus confirms that, other than disclosed in prior press releases, there have been no material business developments since the filing on May 19, 2020 of the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements and related MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2019.
