Summary

This precedent is a special resolution of the shareholders approving an amalgamation agreement under the Alberta Business Corporations Act, RSA 2000, c. B-9 ("ABCA"). The directors of each amalgamating corporation must submit the agreement for approval at a shareholder meeting with notice; the shareholders of each class or series are entitled to vote on the agreement. An amalgamation agreement is adopted when the shareholders from each amalgamating corporation have approved it by special resolution (see: Board Resolution (Amalgamation Agreement for Submission to Shareholders) (ABCA)). For more information on amalgamations of business corporations, see the Amalgamation Resource Kit (CBCA, ABCA, BCBCA, ONCA).
