TSX Guide to Original Listings Requirements

TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE 24 (vi) Creating a TMX LINX Profile TMX LINX is a centralized portal for TSX listed issuers and other stakeholders to interact with TSX. It is a single point of access for TSX listed issuers and their advisors to file notices with TSX, including any additional, substitutional or supplemental listing applications, as well as to periodically complete their ongoing reporting requirements with TSX, while having transparency into the progress of their transactions. The web-based platform enables listed issuers and their legal counsel to manage their submissions, send and receive documents, and communicate with TSX, all through a user-friendly and highly secure system. TMX LINX registration will be required as a condition of listing on TSX. Links to set up a TMX LINX account, or access an existing account, are available here. (vii) TSX Market Maker Program Liquidity is vital to the success of all publicly traded securities in order to attract investment capital and continue to grow. In order to foster the strongest marketplace possible, the TSX Market Maker Program sets out various obligations and incentives for Participating Organizations acting in the role of a formal TSX market maker (a “Market Maker”). TSX typically assigns Market Makers and may accommodate an applicant’s request in relation to its designated broker agreements. Market Maker obligations include but are not limited to: augmenting liquidity, ensuring a competitive two-sided market exists on TSX during continuous trading hours, monitoring the market opening and interacting where necessary, filling odd lots at the Protected NBBO (National Best Bid and Offer), and reporting unusual behavior to the appropriate regulators and authorities. A Market Maker’s performance in regards to their obligations is monitored and assessed on a monthly basis and appropriate actions are taken when underperformance is identified. Requests for designated Market Makers may be discussed with the applicant’s TSX listings manager.
