- the Company’s Unaudited Financial Statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, as required by section 4.2 of National Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations (“NI 51-102”); and
- the Company’s Management Discussion & Analysis for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, as required by section 5.1(2) of NI 51-102.
According to the Alberta Order during the period from March 23, 2020 to June 1, 2020, a person or company required to make certain filings as described in the Alberta Order has an additional 45 days from the deadline otherwise applicable under Alberta securities laws to make the filing. Arrow expects to file the Documents by no later than July 14, 2020.
Until the Company has filed the Documents, members of the Company’s management and other insiders are subject to an insider trading black-out period as per its internal Insider Trading Policy that is consistent with the principles in Section 9 of National Policy 11-207 - Failure-to-File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions.
