On March 18, 2020, the Canadian Securities Administrators ("CSA") issued a notice stating that securities regulators will be providing coordinated relief consisting of a 45-day extension for certain periodic filings required to be made on or prior to June 1, 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
PAI Inc. will be relying on this extension period due to delays experienced as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic with respect to the following provisions:
- the requirement to file audited financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2020 (the "Financial Statements") within 120 days of the Company's financial year end as required by section 4.2(b) of NI 51-102;
- the requirement to file management discussion and analysis (the "MD&A") for the period covered by the Financial Statements within 120 days of the Company's financial year end as required by section 5.1(2) of NI 51-102; and
- the requirement to file certifications of the Financial Statements (the "Certificates" and together with the Financial Statements, the "Annual Filings") pursuant to section 4.1 of National Instrument 52-109.
The Company continues to work diligently and expeditiously with its auditors to file the Annual Filings on or before June 29, 2020). In the interim, members of PAI Inc.'s management and other insiders are subject to a trading black-out policy that reflects the principles in section 9 of National Policy 11-207.
The Company confirms that since the filing of its interim consolidated financial statements for the period ended October 31, 2019, there have been no material business developments other than those disclosed through news releases and filed under the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com
