Pursuant to the Qualifying Transaction, each Highmark shareholder received 1.40235 post-Consolidation (defined below) common shares in the capital of the Corporation ("Common Shares") for each outstanding Highmark common share (the "Highmark Shares") held, for a total issuance from treasury of 35,682,810 Common Shares, with such total being inclusive of the 369,038 Highmark Shares issued in connection with the acquisition of Complex Injury and the 1,882,093 Highmark Shares issued in connection with the acquisition of Highmark Health, each further described in greater detail below.
