("Sleep Country" or the "Company") (TSX: ZZZ) is pleased to announce the successful completion of the previously announced plan of arrangement under section 192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "Arrangement"), pursuant to which 16133258 Canada Inc., a newly-formed and wholly-owned subsidiary of Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited ("Fairfax") (TSX: FFH) (TSX: FFH.U) has acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Sleep Country for $35.00 in cash per common share.
