<p>That first export marked the beginning of a new era for LNG in the United States and laid the foundation for what has become a decade of safe, reliable operations at Sawgrass LNG &amp; Power&#8217;s Miami liquefaction facility and at customer sites across the region.</p>

Sawgrass LNG &amp; Power&#8217;s focus on operational safety and reliability has helped customers reduce energy costs, lower emissions, and strengthen system resilience in regions where energy delivery can be particularly challenging.</p>
<p>&#8220;We take pride in our place in the history of U.S. LNG and in the industry&#8217;s extraordinary growth over the last decade. We are especially proud to have been the first to deliver LNG to Barbados, the Bahamas, and Haiti. Sawgrass looks forward to continuing to grow and support our customers with energy solutions over the next ten years,&#8221; said Daniel McLaughlin, President &amp; Chief Commercial Officer.</p>
<p>Today, Sawgrass LNG &amp; Power continues to expand to meet rising demand from customers seeking practical, lower-cost alternatives to conventional liquid fuels across the Florida and Caribbean markets. The company&#8217;s deep experience operating in remote markets has made it a trusted partner for utilities, industrial operations, commercial customers, and transportation providers alike. As it enters its second decade, Sawgrass LNG &amp; Power remains committed to the principles that have defined its success: safe operations, reliable service, and strong partnerships with the customers and communities it serves.</p>

<div id="divWide" style="margin:0;margin-top:1.33em;">
<div id="ReleaseContent" class="content">
<p>ISS noted that &#8220;when viewed in proper context, there are compelling reasons to believe that this deal is the best path forward for shareholders.&#8221; Among the reasons cited were the offer premium, flexible consideration (subject to pro-ration), the absence of competing proposals, support from Parkland&#8217;s largest shareholder, and the opportunity for shareholders to participate in future upside potential of the combined entity.<sup>1</sup></p>
<p>Glass Lewis emphasized the compelling fit and enhanced diversification, scale and optionality of the combined platform. Further, the firm specifically cited the advantages of the C-corp holding structure and improved capital markets access for the combined company.<sup>1</sup></p>
<p>In addition to the endorsements from ISS and Glass Lewis, the Arrangement has been supported by fairness opinions provided to Parkland&#8217;s Board of Directors by each of Goldman Sachs Canada Inc. and BofA Securities, Inc., and to the independent Special Committee of the Board of Directors by BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc. Parkland&#8217;s Special Committee and Board of Directors have unanimously recommended shareholders vote <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">FOR</span></strong> the Arrangement.</p>
<p><strong>Voting and Meeting Details<br />
</strong>To ensure your vote is counted, shareholders must submit their votes by Friday, June 20, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. (Calgary Time). Parkland encourages shareholders to vote today to avoid missing this deadline.</p>

These matters received overwhelming support from ISS and Glass Lewis.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Establishes a Scalable Platform for Long-Term Value Creation</em></p>
<p><span class="legendSpanClass">CALGARY, AB</span>, <span class="legendSpanClass">May 28, 2025</span> /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ &#8212; Parkland Corporation (&#8221;Parkland&#8221;, &#8220;we&#8221;, the &#8220;Company&#8221; or &#8220;our&#8221;) (TSX: PKI) today announced the filing of its Management Information Circular (the &#8220;Circular&#8221;) and accompanying materials for the upcoming annual and special meeting (the &#8220;Meeting&#8221;) of the Parkland shareholders (the &#8220;Company Shareholders&#8221;) in connection with its previously announced strategic transaction involving Sunoco LP (&#8221;Sunoco&#8221;), and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sunoco group (&#8221;SunocoCorp&#8221;).</p>
<p>This transformative transaction marks a pivotal moment for Parkland, delivering immediate value to Company Shareholders while positioning the combined company for long-term growth. The transaction will be implemented by way of a plan of arrangement (the &#8220;Plan of Arrangement&#8221;) under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the &#8220;Arrangement&#8221;).</p>
<p><strong>The Best Path Forward for Parkland and Our Shareholders</strong></p>
<p>Parkland&#8217;s board of directors (the &#8220;Parkland Board&#8221;) unanimously recommends that Company Shareholders vote <strong>FOR</strong> the special resolution approving the Arrangement (the &#8220;Arrangement Resolution&#8221;).</p>
<p>Key benefits of the Arrangement include:</p>
<p><strong>Immediate Value and Future Upside</strong></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">The Arrangement represents a 25% premium based on the 7-day volume-weighted average price of both the Parkland shares and Sunoco units as of May 2, 2025.</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Company Shareholders benefit from the flexibility to choose one of three forms of consideration:
<ul type="disc">
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">C$19.80 in cash and 0.295 common units of SunocoCorp (which will be a newly listed NYSE public company that holds an interest in Sunoco);</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">C$44.00 in cash<sup>1</sup>; or</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">0.536 SunocoCorp common units<sup>1</sup>.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Company Shareholders who receive SunocoCorp common units will be able to participate in future upside, including potential dividend growth, resulting from the combined business. For two years post-closing, holders of SunocoCorp common units will receive dividends on their units equal to the distributions made to holders of Sunoco common units.</li>

</div>
<p><strong>The Strategic Rationale for the Arrangement</strong></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">The combined company will be one of the largest independent fuel distributors in the Americas, creating greater scale and stability, and is expected to grow returns, improve margins and increase distributable cash flow per unit.</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">The transaction leverages the complementary strengths of both companies to create a more diversified portfolio spanning Canada, the U.S., and the Caribbean, reducing single-industry exposure while improving earnings resiliency and minimizing volatility.</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">The combined company is expected to achieve US$250 million in annual run-rate synergies by the third year, strengthening financial performance and boosting shareholder returns.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Sunoco&#8217;s Commitment to Responsible Stewardship and Growth in the Markets Parkland Serves</strong></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Sunoco will maintain a Canadian headquarters in Calgary and significant employment levels in Canada.</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Sunoco is committed to ongoing investment in Canadian operations, including the Burnaby Refinery and Parkland&#8217;s transportation energy infrastructure expansion plans.</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">The combined company&#8217;s expanded free cash flow will provide additional resources for reinvestment in Canada, the U.S., and the Caribbean in support of both existing and new opportunities.</li>
</ul>
<p>These commitments affirm a vote of confidence in Canada, with Sunoco returning to a country where it has a long history of investment.</p>
<p><strong>Additional Factors</strong></p>
<p>The Arrangement is the result of arm&#8217;s length negotiations between Parkland and Sunoco with the Company Special Committee (the &#8220;Special Committee&#8221;) actively overseeing the process and guiding management and advisors. Following this thorough process, the Special Committee and the Parkland Board concluded that the consideration payable to Company Shareholders reflects Sunoco&#8217;s highest price.</p>
<p>The Special Committee and the Parkland Board evaluated the Arrangement in light of Parkland&#8217;s financial condition, operational performance, strategic alternatives, and market conditions. After reviewing fairness opinions provided to the Parkland Board by Goldman Sachs Canada Inc. and BofA Securities Inc., as well as a fairness opinion provided to the Special Committee by BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., all of which deemed the consideration fair from a financial perspective, the Special Committee unanimously determined the Arrangement is in the best interests of Parkland and its shareholders.</p>
<p>Based on this determination, the Special Committee recommended, and the Board unanimously endorsed, the Arrangement. The transaction is not subject to financing conditions, and Sunoco has demonstrated a strong commitment to completing it efficiently. The reasons for the Parkland Board&#8217;s unanimous recommendation are more fully described under the headings &#8220;<em>The Arrangement – Recommendation of the Parkland Board</em>&#8221; and &#8220;<em>The Arrangement – Reasons for the Recommendations</em>&#8221; in the Circular.</p>
<p>The Arrangement is subject to court approval, Company Shareholder approval, regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.</p>
<p><strong>Other Business at the Meeting</strong></p>
<p>In addition to considering and voting on the Arrangement Resolution, Company Shareholders will also deal with several important matters at the Meeting (the &#8220;Annual Matters&#8221;), the first three of which will be subject to a shareholder vote. These include:</p>
<ol type="1">
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> <strong>Election of Directors: </strong>Company Shareholders will be asked to elect the slate of current Parkland Board members (other than Lisa Colnett who is not standing for re-election): Felipe Bayon, Nora Duke, Robert Espey, Sue Gove, Timothy Hogarth, Richard Hookway, Michael Jennings, Angela John, James Neate, and Mariame McIntosh Robinson to the Parkland Board to complete the Arrangement. The Company did not receive any nominations under its advance notice bylaw.</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> <strong>Appointment of Auditor: </strong>Company Shareholders will vote on the reappointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the auditor of Parkland for the upcoming fiscal year and authorize the Parkland Board to fix their remuneration.</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> <strong>Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation: </strong>Company Shareholders will have the opportunity to cast a non-binding advisory vote on Parkland&#8217;s approach to executive compensation.</li>
<li style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> <strong>Review of Financial Statements:</strong> Company Shareholders will receive the Company&#8217;s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, along with the accompanying auditor&#8217;s report.</li>
</ol>
<p>The Parkland Board recommends that Company Shareholders vote <strong>FOR</strong> each of the Annual Matters to ensure strong governance and operational excellence during this transitional period.</p>

<p>Under each Indenture, the consummation of the Transaction would constitute a Change of Control (as defined in such Indenture). A Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to a series of Notes (as defined in the applicable Indenture) would occur if a decrease by one or more gradations (including gradations within the ratings categories, as well as between categories) (a &#8220;Ratings Decline&#8221;) by certain ratings agency or agencies occur within 90 days before or after the earliest of (x) a Change of Control (as defined in the applicable Indenture), (y) the date of public notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the applicable Indenture) or (z) public notice of the intention of Parkland to effect a Change of Control (as defined in the applicable Indenture) (with such 90-day period to be extended so long as the rating of the Notes is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by an applicable rating agency). If a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in the applicable Indenture) with respect to a series of Notes occurs, each holder of such series would have the right to require Parkland to repurchase all or any part of such holder&#8217;s Notes of that series on the terms set forth in the applicable Indenture. If a Change of Control Offer (as defined in the applicable Indenture) is made with respect to a series of Notes, Parkland would be required to offer a cash payment equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes of that series to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Subsequent to the announcement of the Transaction, Standard &amp; Poor&#8217;s Rating Services, Moody&#8217;s Investor Services Inc. and DBRS Limited each released reports with respect to the Notes, none of which included a downgrade of the rating of the Notes or an announcement of consideration for possible downgrade of the rating of the Notes. Fitch Ratings, Inc. does not provide a rating with respect to the Notes.</p>
<p>Subject to the conditions described in the consent solicitation statement dated May 27, 2025, as amended from time to time (the &#8220;Consent Solicitation Statement&#8221;), Parkland is seeking consent from the holders of each series of Notes to amend the Indenture for each such series to (collectively, the &#8220;Proposed COC Amendments&#8221;):</p>
<p style="margin-left: 40px;">a) eliminate Parkland&#8217;s potential obligation under such Indenture to make a &#8220;Change of Control Offer&#8221; (as defined in such Indenture) as a result of the Transaction; and</p>
<p style="margin-left: 40px;">b) amend the defined term &#8220;Change of Control&#8221; in such Indenture to provide that Sunoco and its affiliates will be &#8220;Qualified Owners&#8221; of Parkland.</p>
<p>With respect to each series of the Notes, the adoption of the Proposed COC Amendments will require the valid and unrevoked consents of holders of at least a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such series as of the applicable Record Date (as defined below). Receipt of the requisite consent with respect to one series of Notes is not a condition to the completion of the Consent Solicitation with respect to any other series of Notes.</p>
<p>Each Consent Solicitation will expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on June 9, 2025 (such date and time with respect to a Consent Solicitation, as the same may be terminated or extended by Parkland from time to time, in its sole discretion, the &#8220;Expiration Date&#8221;). Only holders of record of the USD Notes as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on May 23, 2025 and holders of record of the CAD Notes as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on May 26, 2025 (each, a &#8220;Record Date&#8221;), are eligible to deliver consents to the Proposed COC Amendments applicable to such series of Notes. Parkland may, in its sole discretion, abandon, terminate, amend or extend any Consent Solicitation with regard to a series of Notes at any time and from time to time as described in the Consent Solicitation Statement.</p>
<p>Only holders of Notes of a series as of the applicable Record Date who deliver valid and unrevoked consents to the Proposed COC Amendments on or prior to the earlier of the applicable Consent Time (as defined in the Consent Solicitation Statement) and the Expiration Date for such series shall receive the Consent Fees set forth in the table above, which are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Consent Solicitation Statement. Payment of the consent fees with respect to each series of Notes is subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) by Parkland of certain conditions, including receipt of the applicable requisite consents.</p>
<p>This press release is for informational purposes only and the Consent Solicitations are being made solely on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Consent Solicitation Statement. Holders of any series of Notes are urged to read and carefully consider the information contained in the Consent Solicitation Statement for the detailed terms of the Consent Solicitation and the procedures for consenting to the Proposed COC Amendments.

<div id="ReleaseContent">
<p><span>CALGARY, AB</span>, <span>May 5, 2025</span> /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ &#8212; Sunoco LP (NYSE: SUN) (&#8221;Sunoco&#8221; or the &#8220;Partnership&#8221;) and Parkland Corporation (TSX: PKI) (&#8221;Parkland&#8221;) announced today that they have entered into a definitive agreement whereby Sunoco will acquire all outstanding shares of Parkland in a cash and equity transaction valued at approximately U.S.$9.1 billion, including assumed debt (the &#8220;Transaction&#8221;).</p>
<div id="dvprnejpg8cfeleft" style="width: 800px;" dir="ltr"><img id="prnejpg8cfeleft" style="width: 400px; height: 126px;" title="Parkland Corporation Logo" src="https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/2679290/Parkland_Corporation_Parkland_Corporation_to_be_Acquired_by_Suno.jpg" alt="Parkland Corporation Logo" align="middle" /></div>
<p>&#8220;This strategic combination is a compelling outcome for Parkland shareholders,&#8221; said Michael Jennings, Executive Chairman of Parkland. &#8220;The Board unanimously recommends the proposed transaction, recognizing Sunoco&#8217;s commitment to safeguarding Canadian jobs, retaining the Calgary head office, and further investing in Canada. This partnership creates significant financial benefits for shareholders and would position the combined company as the largest independent fuel distributor in the Americas.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Today marks a significant milestone,&#8221; said Bob Espey, President and CEO of Parkland. &#8220;This transaction delivers immediate value for shareholders, including an attractive 25% premium. Sunoco shares our commitment to growth, customer service, operational excellence, and ongoing investment in Canada, making our combined business stronger and better positioned for sustained success.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Strategic Rationale</strong></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Compelling Financial Benefits: </strong>Immediately accretive, with 10%+ accretion to distributable cash flow per common unit and U.S.$250 million in run-rate synergies by Year 3. The combined company expects to return to Sunoco&#8217;s 4x long-term leverage target within 12-18 months post-close.</li>
<li style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Industry Leading Scale and Stability: </strong>Complementary assets enables advantaged fuel supply and further diversifies Sunoco&#8217;s portfolio and geographic footprint.</li>
<li style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Accelerated Accretive Growth: </strong>Increases cash flow generation for reinvestment and distribution growth.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Continued Commitment to Canada and Responsible Stewardship</strong></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Employment in Canada: </strong>Sunoco will maintain a Canadian headquarters in Calgary and significant employment levels in Canada.</li>
<li style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Burnaby Refinery: </strong>Sunoco is committed to continuing to invest in Parkland&#8217;s innovative refinery, which produces low-carbon fuels, while maintaining safe, healthy and growing operations for the long-term. The refinery will continue to operate and supply fuel within the Lower Mainland.</li>
<li style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Transportation Energy Infrastructure Expansion: </strong>Sunoco will continue to support Parkland&#8217;s plan to expand its Canadian transportation energy infrastructure.</li>
<li style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Expanded Investment Opportunities: </strong>The combined company&#8217;s expanded free cash flow will provide additional resources for reinvestment in Canada, the Caribbean, and the United States in support of both existing and new opportunities.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Transaction Details</strong></p>
<p>Under the terms of the agreement, Parkland shareholders will receive 0.295 SUNCorp units and C$19.80 for each Parkland share, implying a 25 per cent premium based on the 7-day VWAP&#8217;s of both Parkland and Sunoco as of May 2, 2025. Parkland shareholders can elect, in the alternative, to receive C$44.00 per Parkland share in cash or 0.536 SUNCorp units for each Parkland share, subject to proration to ensure that the aggregate consideration payable in connection with the transaction does not exceed C$19.80 in cash per Parkland share outstanding as of immediately before closing and 0.295 SUNCorp units per Parkland share outstanding as of immediately before close. For a period of two years following closing of the transaction, Sunoco will ensure that SUNCorp unitholders will receive the same dividend equivalent as the distribution to Sunoco unitholders.</p>
<p>The proposed Transaction will be effected pursuant to a plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta), which is required to be approved by an Alberta court. The Transaction will require approval by 66 2/3 per cent of the votes cast by the shareholders of Parkland. The agreement also contains an option whereby Sunoco, at its election any time before the Meeting (defined below), may elect to effect and complete the Transaction on the same terms by way of a take-over bid, which would require support from Parkland shareholders owning at least 50 per cent of Parkland&#8217;s outstanding shares. The directors and senior officers of Parkland, collectively holding 0.7 per cent of the Parkland shares, have entered into customary voting support agreements, pursuant to which they have committed to vote their common shares held in favour of the Transaction.</p>
<p>In addition to shareholder and court approvals, the Transaction is subject to applicable regulatory approvals, including approvals under the Investment Canada Act, approval of the listing of the SUNCorp shares to be issued under the Transaction on the NYSE, and the satisfaction of certain other closing conditions customary for a transaction of this nature. Subject to the satisfaction of such conditions, the Transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2025. The agreement includes customary deal protections, including fiduciary-out provisions, non-solicitation covenants, and the right to match any superior proposals, subject to Parkland paying a break fee in the amount of $275 million in certain circumstances.</p>
<p>Full details of the Transaction will be included in the Parkland management information circular.</p>
<p><strong>Board of Directors Recommendation</strong></p>
<p>On March 5, 2025, Parkland announced that its Board of Directors had initiated a review of strategic alternatives aimed at identifying opportunities to maximize value for all shareholders. A special committee of independent directors (the &#8220;Special Committee&#8221;) was appointed to oversee and lead this comprehensive review.</p>
<p>Following this announcement, discussions with Sunoco intensified significantly, leading to the Transaction.</p>
<p>Based on the unanimous recommendation of Parkland&#8217;s Special Committee, and following thorough consultation with its financial and legal advisors, Parkland&#8217;s Board of Directors has unanimously approved the Transaction. The Board strongly recommends that shareholders vote in favour of the Transaction.</p>
<p>Goldman Sachs Canada Inc. and BofA Securities have each provided opinions to the Parkland Board of Directors, and BMO Capital Markets has provided an opinion to the Parkland Special Committee, to the effect that, as of the date thereof, and based upon and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications stated in each such opinion, the right to receive, at the option of each Parkland shareholder, either (i) an amount in cash equal to the quotient obtained by dividing C$19.80 by 45%, (ii) the number of common units representing limited liability company interests in SUNCorp equal to the quotient obtained by dividing 0.295 by 55% or (iii) a combination of C$19.80 in cash and 0.295 common units representing limited liability company interests in SUNCorp is fair, from a financial point of view, to the shareholders of Parkland (other than Sunoco and its affiliates). The full text of each such fairness opinion, which sets forth the assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken in connection with each such opinion, will be included in the Parkland management information circular. None of BofA Securities, Goldman Sachs Canda Inc. or BMO Capital Markets express an opinion or recommendation as to how any Parkland shareholder should vote or act in connection with the Transaction or any other matter.</p>
<p><strong>Annual and Special Meeting</strong></p>
<p>Parkland intends to hold a special meeting of Parkland shareholders on June 24, 2025, to approve the Transaction. The annual general meeting of Parkland shareholders, which was originally scheduled for May 6, 2025, has been cancelled and will instead be held on June 24, 2025 concurrent with the special meeting (the annual and special meeting of Parkland Shareholders is referred to as the &#8220;Meeting&#8221;), allowing Parkland&#8217;s shareholders adequate time to fully evaluate the Transaction and its benefits. Shareholders as of the record date of May 23, 2025 will be eligible to vote at the Meeting. In addition to the business of the Meeting already described in Parkland&#8217;s management information circular dated April 7, 2025, Parkland will file a new 2025 management information circular, which will also contain information about the Transaction.</p>
<p>The current directors have agreed to stand for election at the upcoming Meeting in order to consummate the Transaction, if supported by Parkland&#8217;s shareholders. These directors have agreed to stand down in favour of any alternative slate if the Transaction is not supported.</p>
<p><strong>Advisors</strong></p>
<p>Goldman Sachs Canada Inc. and BofA Securities served as financial advisors to Parkland. BMO Capital Markets acted as financial advisor to Parkland&#8217;s Special Committee. Norton Rose Fulbright Canada LLP acted as Parkland&#8217;s legal advisor. Torys LLP acted as legal advisor to Parkland&#8217;s Special Committee.</p>
<p>Barclays and RBC Capital Markets served as the exclusive financial advisors to Sunoco. Barclays and RBC Capital Markets provided committed financing. Stikeman Elliot LLP, Weil, Gotshal &amp; Manges LLP, and Vinson &amp; Elkins LLP acted as Sunoco&#8217;s legal advisors.</p>

</a><br />
<em> to all shareholders<br />
</em></p>
<p><span class="legendSpanClass">CALGARY, AB</span>, <span class="legendSpanClass">April 29, 2025</span> /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ &#8212; Parkland Corporation (&#8221;Parkland&#8221; or &#8220;the Company&#8221;) (TSX: PKI) today commented on the report<sup>1</sup> issued by Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (&#8221;ISS&#8221;), a leading independent proxy advisory firm, regarding the election of directors at Parkland&#8217;s Annual General Meeting scheduled for May 6, 2025. In addition, Parkland&#8217;s Executive Chairman, Michael Jennings released a short video to all shareholders. It can be viewed <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4416482-1&amp;h=200682508&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fvideo.wixstatic.com%2Fvideo%2Fbd7041_630143e725964241b9a26ab067327632%2F1080p%2Fmp4%2Ffile.mp4&amp;a=here" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>ISS affirmed that Simpson Oil Limited (&#8221;Simpson&#8221;) has failed to meet the high bar required to justify a control slate, stating explicitly:</p>
<p><em>&#8220;… the bar for a control slate is high, and the dissident has not cleared it outright.&#8221; </em></p>
<p>ISS also highlighted significant deficiencies in Simpson&#8217;s proposed business strategy, noting:</p>
<p><em>&#8220;The dissident&#8217;s plan is light on details regarding capital allocation and which businesses would be potential divestitures, where specific cost savings would be identified and what a potential timeline for realization would be.&#8221;</em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;…the lack of detail provided makes it difficult for shareholders to objectively assess the dissident&#8217;s execution of its plan, if it is successful in this campaign, and as such does not warrant full control of the board.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>Further, ISS has recommended withholding support from Simpson&#8217;s nominee Mark Davis, who is also their proposed interim CEO, illustrating concerns over Simpson&#8217;s lack of depth and clarity in leadership transition planning.</p>
<p>In contrast, ISS endorsed Parkland&#8217;s recent strategic initiatives, including the ongoing strategic review and the comprehensive CEO search, emphasizing that Parkland&#8217;s Board is appropriately structured to oversee these processes and deliver value to all shareholders.</p>
<p>The choice for shareholders is clear: a vote for Parkland&#8217;s nominees is a vote for an experienced, diverse, and independent Board stewarding a credible and thorough strategic review and acting in the best interest of all shareholders.</p>
<p><strong>Reminder: Continue Voting ONLY the BLUE Proxy &#8216;FOR&#8217; the Parkland Nominees</strong></p>
<p>Regardless of the recommendations issued by the proxy advisors, Parkland urges all shareholders to continue ONLY voting &#8216;FOR&#8217; Parkland&#8217;s nominees on the <strong>BLUE</strong> Proxy ensuring the Company continues to be led by directors committed to rigorous governance and maximizing value for all shareholders.
