The Alberta Securities Commission has published several documents regarding the TSX Venture Exchange’s Capital Pool Company program. The documents are being published for informational purposes.

They include:
– the CPC operating agreement between the exchange, the B.C. Securities Commission, the ASC, the Saskatchewan Securities Commission, and the Manitoba and Ontario commissions. Each of the parties to the CPC Operating Agreement signed the agreement; however, to become effective in Ontario, the agreement also requires Ontario government consent.
– the exchange’s proposed policy on CPCs;
– forms outlining information required in a CPC prospectus and the information circular for a Qualifying Transaction.

The CPC Operating Agreement, the Policy and the forms are the product of the ASC’s negotiations with the BCSC, SSC, MSC, and the OSC, and reflect its goal to implement a uniform CPC program in the various provinces. All documents will come into effect on June 15.
