Onex Announces Change to MVS Shareholder Proposal

TORONTO, March 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Onex Corporation (TSX: ONEX) today announced a change to the Multiple Voting Shares (MVS) amendment proposal for shareholder consideration at the company’s next Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

As previously announced in connection with Onex’ leadership succession plan, shareholders will be asked to consider an amendment which would add a sunset provision to the current voting entitlement of the MVS. Following consultation with shareholders, the proposed sunset provision will be reduced to a period of three years, from a period of five years as previously communicated.

If shareholders approve the proposal, an “Event of Change” will be deemed to have occurred three years after the effective date of the Articles Amendment even if Mr. Schwartz is still Chair and still holds more than 5,000,000 Subordinate Voting Shares.

“I am grateful to shareholders for their continued support and for providing feedback on the voluntary proposal,” said Gerry Schwartz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Onex is committed to increasing shareholder value on an expeditious timeline and acting in the best interest of the organization and its owners. I am confident that shareholders will see the merits of the proposal. The Board of Directors has full confidence in Bobby Le Blanc and looks forward to the continued execution of our strategic plan.”

The Information Circular for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders is expected to be filed on or around April 11, 2023.
