A notice so delivered by prepaid mail or delivered personally is deemed to be received at the time it would have been delivered in the ordinary course of mail unless there are reasonable grounds for believing that the shareholder or director did not receive the notice or document at that time or at all.
Subject to the Regulations, a notice so delivered by prepaid transmitted, electronic or recorded communication is deemed to have been provided when it leaves an information system within the control of the originator or another person who sent it on behalf of the originator and is deemed to be received when it enters the information system designated by the addressee or, if the notice is posted on or made available through a generally accessible electronic source, when it is accessed by the addressee.
The secretary may change or cause to be changed the recorded address of any shareholder, director, officer, auditor or member of a committee of the board in accordance with any information believed by the secretary to be reliable.
