NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF MATERIALS FOR 2021 ANNUAL AND SPECIAL
|
Notice-and-Access
Throughout this notice, “CP “and “our” means Canadian Pacific Railway Limited and “you”, “your” and “shareholder” means a shareholder of CP.
You are receiving this notice because CP is using notice-and-access to deliver you our management proxy circular (“proxy circular”) and other proxy-related materials (“meeting materials”), including our 2020 annual report, for our annual and special meeting of shareholders. We are providing you with electronic access to these documents instead of mailing paper copies. You will receive a form of proxy or voting instruction form so you can vote your shares.
Notice-and-access is a more environmentally friendly and cost effective way to deliver the proxy circular and meeting materials as it will help reduce paper use and the cost of printing and mailing materials to shareholders.
Notice is hereby given that an annual and special meeting of CP will be held:
