Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the special meeting of the shareholders of MEG Energy. My name is James McFarland, and I'm Chair of the Board of Directors of MEG. Thank you for joining us. I will chair today's meeting pursuant to the interim order of the Court of King's Bench. I will now call the meeting to order. In accordance with the interim order, I will act as Chair of this meeting, and Lyle Yuzdepski, MEG's Senior Vice President, Legal and Corporate Development, and Corporate Secretary, will act as Secretary of the meeting. Ms. Elisa Roha and Ms. Tara Israelson of Computershare will act as scrutineers for the meeting. The scrutineers have advised me that notice of this meeting, the management information circular, the form of proxy, and other required materials were mailed pursuant to the interim order of the Court of King's Bench. The scrutineers have reported that 97 shareholders holding CAD 234,321,021, or 92% of the outstanding common shares of MEG Energy are present in person or by proxy. So I declare that a quorum of shareholders is present and that the meeting is properly constituted for the transaction of business. The scrutineers' final report on attendance will be annexed to the minutes. Now, my role as chair is a little more difficult this morning, and I've made a decision to recess the meeting until 2:00 P.M. this afternoon in order to give us time to address a regulatory inquiry that came in late yesterday evening. So we'll meet back at this location at 2:00 o'clock Mountain Time. The webcast link for this meeting will remain the same. So I now declare the meeting recessed. Thank you. See you a little bit later. Well, good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. My name is James McFarland, and I am Chair of the meeting. I now call this meeting to order. When we last met earlier today, I called the meeting to order and then recessed the meeting at 9:15 A.M. Calgary time. I wish to advise at this time, shareholders and proxy holders, that following consultation with the MEG board of directors earlier this afternoon, management, and our advisors, I have decided to recess the meeting until 6:00 P.M. tonight, Calgary time, at this same venue. And that provides us a little more time to address the regulatory inquiry. There's no other business to be transacted at this time, so thank you for your attention. The meeting is now recessed until 6:00 P.M. today at this same venue, 6:00 P.M. Calgary time. Thanks very much, folks.
