TORONTO, Dec. 18, 2017 /CNW/ - Park Lawn Corporation (TSX:PLC) ("PLC") is pleased to announce another important milestone in its growth plan with the closing of a new syndicated bank financing arrangement led by National Bank of Canada and including Bank of Montreal and The Toronto-Dominion Bank.

The financing arrangement, which replaces PLC's existing credit facilities with National Bank, has a term of five years and more than triples PLC's borrowing capacity to $125 million. The additional credit will provide PLC with further flexibility as it continues to pursue its growth strategy. In particular, the revolving credit facility is expected to support PLC's ability to capitalize on organic projects and acquisition opportunities as they arise while maintaining a prudent approach to leverage.

Highlights of the new credit facilities include:

$75 million committed credit facility
Additional $50 million accordion facility
Five year revolving facility

"We are pleased to be expanding our relationship with National Bank and developing new relationships with BMO and TD. I am confident that this transaction will enhance our success as we continue to grow our business in both Canada and the United States," said Andrew Clark, Chairman and CEO of PLC.
