Okay. Then we'll proceed to a vote. The Board of Directors and management are recommending, voting for the amendment to Great-West articles. The motion must be approved by at least 2/3 of the vote cast and only Great-West common shareholders or first preferred shareholders or their proxy holders may vote. I should note that while Canada Life policyholders who are attending online will see voting options on their screen, only votes from Great-West Life shareholders or their proxy holders will be counted. If you've not already done so, please vote now.

For those attending online, please select a voting option on the voting panel displayed on your screen. And for those who are here in person, please use your Great-West Life ballots And vote by placing an X in the appropriate box in the section entitled, Amend the Articles
