The continued company will be named Solus Trust Company Limited (“STCL”) in English and Compagnie Trust Solus Limitée in French. Solus is currently controlled by Messrs.

Solus is currently incorporated pursuant to the Financial Institutions Act (British Columbia [“B.C.”]) [the “BCFIA”]; its head office is in Vancouver, B.C. STCL, post-continuance, will be non-deposit taking, and will offer estate and trust services to its clients in B.C.

Notice is also hereby given that RJTC and Solus, on November 16, 2022, jointly filed an application with the Superintendent of Financial Institutions pursuant to sections 228 and 233 of the TLCA, to request that the Minister of Finance issue letters patent of amalgamation to amalgamate STCL and RJTC, with the resulting entity initially being named Raymond James Trust (Canada) in English and Fiducie Raymond James (Canada) in French, and then subsequently changing its name to Solus Trust Company in English and Compagnie Trust Solus in French. RJTC is a federally incorporated trust company pursuant to the TLCA, with its head office in Toronto, Ontario. The amalgamated company is, and will continue to be, a non-deposit taking trust company, offering estate and trust services to its clients across Canada. Its head office will remain in Toronto, Ontario.

Any person who objects to the issuance of these letters patent may submit their objection in writing by March 7, 2023, to the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions, either by post at 255 Albert Street, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0H2 or by email at approvals-approbations@osfi-bsif.gc.ca.

Note: The publication of this notice should not be construed as evidence that letters patent will be issued to continue the company as a trust company under the TLCA. The granting of the letters patent will be dependent upon the application review process under the TLCA and the discretion of the Minister of Finance.
