On December 18, 2017, the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) and the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV, together with the TSX, the TMX Exchanges) introduced electronic versions of TSX Form 4 and TSXV Form 2A Personal Information Form and the related TSX Form 4B and TSXV Form 2C1 Declaration (the Electronic Documents).
Individuals are now able to populate their Electronic Documents on the TMX Portal.
The Electronic Documents do not need to be notarized and are executed by the individual with an electronic signature, thereby eliminating the previous requirement for an originally executed copy to be delivered the TMX Exchanges.
In addition, the TSX listing application was also amended to remove the requirement to have the listing application notarized.
Individuals may continue to submit notarized and originally executed documents in paper format to the TMX Exchanges on a voluntary basis until June 30, 2018.
