Saskatchewan Wheat Pool has started a program to make it possible and inexpensive for small shareholders to either buy more shares or dispose of their holdings.
The program is targeted at shareholders who hold 99 shares or less.
Shareholders of record on July 25, who hold less than 100 shares, may sell all their shares or buy additional shares to increase their holdings to 100 shares without incurring brokerage commissions.
The sale of shares will be done via the Toronto Stock Exchange.
The voluntary program will expire Oct. 25, unless extended by the company.
Information regarding the program and participation documents was to be mailed to eligible registered holders at the end of July, and will be made available to eligible beneficial shareholders through their stockbroker, custodian bank or nominee.
The pool has retained Computershare Investor Services Inc. to manage the program and to handle share transactions and payments.
Questions regarding the small shareholders purchase and sales program may be directed to Computershare at 866-982-0311 or at swpoddlot@computershare.com.
