This ought to work, so there might be something wrong with the code before the call to your example method, or within the example method after you have read in values. Make sure that $scalar1, $scalar2, and @info1 are containing what you expect before you go into the subroutine call.

If for some reason everything's fine, there's a couple other ways to try:

sub example {
    my ( $scalar1, $scalar2, @info1 ) = @_;
    ...
}

or using references:

&example( $scalar1, $scalar2, \@info1 ) = @_;
...
sub example {
    my $scalar1 = shift;
    my $scalar2 = shift;
    my $arrref = shift;
    my @info1 = @$arrref;
    ...
}
