"The central problem of the shareholder situation with the club still remains; 50 per cent of the share- holders no longer want to play golf at the club and want to receive their $90,000 share value, and the remaining 50 per cent want to play golf and trap the $20 million of the shareholder equity of those who don't play," said Noble, a Georgetown na- tive who now resides in B.C. "The club has no opera- tional plan for these share- holders to ever receive their proper share value." The club held a special shareholders' meeting in October 2017 to determine whether to entertain the best two offers - as deter- mined by broker-of-record Colliers International - to sell the land and buildings, requiring a two-thirds ma- jority vote to pass. The final tally was 212 voting against and 206 for the sale of the club. Noble said the process of soliciting offers through Colliers International con- firmed that the actual shareholder value is ap- proximately $90,000, which was what had been estimated in court docu- ments filed in the minori- ty-shareholder oppres- sion-remedy class action. Yet those looking to di- vest their shares in the club have only been of- fered a fraction of that amount in recent years and they can only sell their shares to other members. In his 37-page ruling, Justice Glustein pointed out that "other golf clubs had reduced their initia- tion/share prices to any- where between $0 to $15,000, with an average price of less than $9,000," and that the submissions of the class were not sup- ported by evidence. He added that by recom- mending the share sale programs, the club's board of directors provided a mechanism to avoid con- sistent losses, decreased membership and dwin- dling revenue, so that the club could effectively maintain operations and likely benefit from in- creased land value over time. Noble said he has not yet decided whether to file an appeal by the July 21 deadline. NEWS l Continued from page 3 Plaintiff says appeal of ruling is possible
