Martin, chairman and president of Capital Southwest.&#160;&#160;&#8220;It is in the best interest of our shareholders to pursue this transaction now.&#160;&#160;The market is ideal for us to use the capital from this sale to invest while the opportunity is high and the availability of alternate funding is low.&#160;&#160;This allows us to add companies to our portfolio that provide a great long-term benefit and return on investment to our shareholders.&#8221;</font></div>

As such, it complements NorthStar&#8217;s premier properties in other states and is an example of NorthStar&#8217;s commitment to grow through the addition of outstanding funeral and cemetery properties throughout America.&#8221;</font></div>
