Good morning, and welcome to the special meeting of shareholders of Park Lawn Corporation. My name is Deborah Robinson, and as chair of the board of directors of the company, I will be chairing the meeting today. The purpose of today's meeting is to consider and, if thought advisable, pass a special resolution approving a plan of arrangement involving the company and Viridian Acquisition Inc. We are hosting this meeting solely through the Lumi virtual meeting platform. As this meeting is held virtually via webcast, it is necessary to set out a few rules for the meeting. During the meeting, registered shareholders and duly appointed proxy holders may submit questions using the instant messaging service of the virtual Lumi interface. We encourage registered shareholders or proxy holders who have a specific question on the business to be discussed and voted on at today's meeting to submit their question now. The chair may either respond to a question, direct such question to the secretary of the meeting, or reject the question in the chair's sole discretion. For the purposes of the meeting today, voting on all matters will be conducted by electronic poll through the Lumi platform. Every registered shareholder as of June 18, 2024, or their duly appointed proxy holder, is entitled to vote on the matter and has one vote in respect of each share held or represented by that shareholder or proxy holder. If you validly submit a proxy in advance of the meeting, you do not need to vote during this meeting. Your previously submitted proxy will remain valid, and your shares will be voted in accordance with your instructions. By voting during the meeting, you will be revoking any previously submitted proxy. The polls are now open at this time. You may record your vote at any time during the course of the meeting until the polls are closed, at which time the voting page will disappear in the Lumi interface. To register your vote, please access the Vote tab and select the For or Against button next to the Arrangement Resolution to vote for or against the resolution, and submit. I would now like to formally call this meeting to order. Unless there are any objections, I appoint Patty Tsigiannis for Odyssey, of Odyssey Trust Company, to act as scrutineer of this meeting, and Jennifer Hay, Chief Strategy Officer and General Counsel of the company, to act as Secretary of today's meeting. Certain shareholders or proxy holders who are present at today's meeting have been pre-arranged to move and to second certain matters for the sake of expediency. Although this procedure will assist in the handling of the formal matters, it is not intended to discourage registered shareholders or duly appointed proxy holders from asking questions. Park Lawn has mailed or delivered the notice calling this meeting together with the Management Information circular and other applicable meeting materials to each director of Park Lawn, the auditors of Park Lawn, the holders of options, RSUs, PSUs, DSUs, and warrants of Park Lawn, and to each shareholder of record of Parklawn as of June eighteenth, 2024, in accordance with National Instrument 54-101 and the interim court order. Affidavits of mailing have been provided by Odyssey Trust Company and Broadridge Financial Solutions Inc. to Park Lawn, and I would ask the secretary to include the affidavits with the minutes of this meeting. In addition, copies of the meeting materials are also posted online on SEDAR and under Park Lawn's issuer profile. Unless there are any objections, I will dispense with the reading of the notice of meeting. Okay. The interim order and the company's bylaws provide that the quorum for this meeting is not less than two persons entitled to vote at the meeting hold, at the meeting holding or representing in the aggregate not less than 25% of the issued and outstanding common shares. The scrutineer has provided me with a preliminary report regarding shareholder attendance and representative, representation at this meeting. The scrutineer's preliminary report shows that there are present at the virtual meeting or represented by proxy at least 64 shareholders, representing at least 18,219,833 common shares of Parklawn, or approximately 52.86% of the issued and outstanding common shares entitled to be voting at this meeting. Accordingly, I declare that a quorum of shareholders is present and that the meeting is duly called and properly constituted for the transaction of business. I would ask the secretary to include the scrutineer's final report on attendance with the minutes of this meeting. We will now proceed to consider and vote on a special resolution of shareholders, the full text of which is set forth in Appendix B to Parklawn's Management Information Circular for this meeting. The purpose of the special resolution is to approve a plan of arrangement under the Ontario Business Corporations Act, pursuant to which all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Parklawn Corporation will be acquired by Viridian Acquisition Inc, which is indirectly owned by Homesteaders Life Company and certain funds, the general partner of which is Birch Hill Equity Partners Management Inc. For CAD 26.50 in cash per common share. The arrangement is described in more detail in the Management Information Circular. For the arrangement resolution to pass, the resolution must be approved by at least two-thirds of the votes cast, cast by shareholders voting virtually in person or by proxy at this meeting. The board of directors of the company has unanimously, unanimously determined that the arrangement is in the best interest of the company and recommended that shareholders vote for the arrangement resolution. I will now ask someone to please make a motion to approve the arrangement resolution. This is Brad Green. I move that the Arrangement Resolution, the full text of which is set forth in Appendix D to the Management Information Circular, be approved. Thank you, Brad. Elijio, could you please second the motion? I second the motion. Thank you, Elijio. Jennifer, have we received any questions relating to this matter? No, there are no questions. Thank you. The polls are open, and all registered shareholders and duly appointed proxy holders may enter their votes through the Lumi platform. Okay, at this point, all registered shareholders and proxy holders should have submitted their votes. If you have not already voted, please complete the electronic ballot on the Lumi platform now. We will give you 30 more seconds. I would now ask that the polls be closed. The polls are now closed. Based on the preliminary report on proxies received from the scrutineer, I declare that the motion has been carried and that the arrangement resolution has been approved by Park Lawn shareholders. As a result, Park Lawn now has the shareholder approval required to complete the plan of arrangement transaction. I request that the secretary include the final tabulation of the voting results with the meeting minutes. The final voting results will also be included in a report on voting results, which will be posted to SEDAR in due course following today's meeting. As there is no further business, unless there are any objections, I direct this, that this meeting now be concluded. I would like to end by thanking everyone who tuned in online to our webcast of today's event. On behalf of the company, we wish to thank all of our shareholders and key stakeholders who have been instrumental in supporting and growing our business. We look forward to concluding the transaction in the coming days.
