Exhibit 99.1
NOTICE AND ACCESS NOTIFICATION TO SHAREHOLDERS
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON THURSDAY, JUNE 23, 2022
You are receiving this notification because DRAGANFLY INC. (the “Corporation”) has opted to use the “notice and access” model for the delivery of its management information circular (the “Information Circular”) to the holders (the “Shareholders”) of common shares in the capital of the Corporation in respect of its annual general meeting of Shareholders to be held on Thursday, June 23, 2022 (the “Meeting”).
Under “notice and access” instead of receiving paper copies of the Information Circular, Shareholders are receiving this notice with information on how to access the Information Circular electronically. Shareholders will also be receiving a proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable, together with this notification to use to vote at the Meeting.
The use of this alternative means of delivery is more environmentally friendly and more economical. It reduces the Corporation’s paper use and it also reduces the Corporation’s printing and mailing costs.
