  • Change of name: The Company proposes to change its name to “Dynamic Technologies Group Inc.”, to reflect the transformation of the Company from its steel fabrication roots as Empire Iron Works Ltd. into a company leveraging its technology in the themed attraction and “out-of-home” entertainment market niches. The Company will seek shareholder approval for this change at the meeting.

After the formal portion of the meeting, there will be an investor presentation including a video and a slide show presentation by Guy Nelson, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. All investors and guests will be able to participate in the question and answer session that will follow the investor presentation.
