Thanks, FJ!
I'll leave this discussion with this thought from the NR by POET:
“We have postponed the shareholder meeting in order to provide that all necessary approvals on the part of the buyer will have been secured by mid to late August. This would allow us to include in the management information circular an agreement signed by both parties that is contingent solely on approval by POET’s shareholders.” Emphasis added.
From the above, an August 20 mail date for the circular sound risky/ambitious.
