TORONTO, Oct. 3, 2017 /CNW/ - Park Lawn Corporation (TSX: PLC)  ("PLC" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that, effective September 30, 2017, it has completed the acquisition of the final two properties in connection with the acquisition of Saber Management LLC, which was originally announced on June 7, 2017. The acquisition of the remaining properties, which include a cemetery and funeral home in Gurnee, Illinois, completes the acquisition of 23 properties located in Kentucky, Illinois and Texas.

As a result of the completion of the acquisition, approximately US$3 million of cash consideration was paid to the sellers of the properties. The aggregate purchase price for the 23 acquired properties (the "Acquisition"), including the Illinois assets, was approximately US$48.75 million in cash, subject to customary working capital adjustments, plus additional consideration of up to US$9.75 million in PLC common shares ("Common Shares"). The additional consideration will be issued over a period of three years if certain financial hurdles are met. Further details regarding the Acquisition are set out in the Company's news release of June 7, 2017.
