As a Member of Gore Mutual Insurance Company (“Gore Mutual” or the “Company”), you are entitled to attend and vote at all Member meetings with the option to attend in person or by proxy. You also have the option of voting by proxy electronically, giving you the ability to vote without having to mail in any forms. You also have the choice to not attend and vote at Member meetings.

                               

As a Member, you are entitled to receive Gore Mutual’s annual financial statements; notices of Member meetings and all materials related to such meetings; and any other information or updates issued to keep Members informed about the Company. You also have the option of receiving such materials electronically or the choice of not receiving any information. To assist the Company with reducing printing and mailing requirements and its environmental footprint, Gore Mutual is encouraging its Members who wish to receive materials to consider electronic delivery.

 

Gore Mutual has retained Kingsdale Advisors as its independent registrar and information agent, to manage Member communication preferences pertaining solely to Member matters. For your insurance policy matters you should continue to contact your broker and/or Gore Mutual, as you currently do.

 

Kingsdale Advisors has been engaged to receive and maintain Members’ preferences with respect to the delivery of notices of Member meetings (and related meeting materials including the proxy circular and form of proxy), annual financial statements, and Member meeting attendance and voting.

 

Notice of meetings, related materials and financial statements will only be sent to those Members who advise that they want to receive such information. It is important that you provide your instructions as soon as possible to ensure you receive notice of and related materials for the next Member meeting. IF YOUR INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT RECEIVED, NO MEETING MATERIALS WILL BE SENT TO YOU. If no response is received you may receive follow-up communications to ensure you are provided with the opportunity to receive materials and to remain informed about upcoming Member meetings and still have the option to vote.

​

By selecting Electronic Delivery, you consent to receive an email from Kingsdale Advisors (prior to any Member meeting) with a link to all materials (including the notice of meeting; the proxy circular which contains information on the matters that are being voted on at the meeting; the form of proxy which allows you to vote on the matters without having to attend the meeting in person; and the annual financial statements). Such material will typically be made available until such time that it is replaced with material for the next anticipated meeting. You will also be provided with a link to conveniently vote electronically, eliminating the need to return any documents by mail. Note that providing such consent will also allow the Company to communicate with you by email for other Member related correspondence that may not necessarily be related to a Member meeting.
