welcome from First Class Cattle Marketing Welcome to the 50th Anniversary Canadian Western Agribition National Gelbvieh Sale. It is with great pleasure that we were asked by the sale committee to work with them on the sale portion of this historic event. Regina Saskatchewan is going to be the hot spot of the livestock industry, and what better way to take it in then the National Gelbvieh Show and Sale. We have acquired some breed leading genetics in the forms of picks, live cattle and frozen genetics. We are very excited about this offering so please study the catalogue in great depth and bid and buy with confidence! These breeders have truly stepped in to offer their very best. Please plan on joining us November 25th in Regina for the 50th Anniversary Canadian Western Agribition Gelbvieh Sale. If for any reason you are not able to attend the entire crew here at First Class Cattle Marketing will be very familiar with the offering and it will be our pleasure to assist you in a professional and confidential manner on the purchase of your next Gelbvieh Genetics. Mark Shologan at DLMS will also be onsite if internet bidding is what you prefer. I am hoping to be able to visit with you all in Regina and I wish everyone a very successful show season and a Merry Christmas. Sincerely, Darnell Fornwald First Class Cattle Marketing

TERMS & CONDITIONS The terms of the sale are cash or cheque payable at par at sale location unless satisfactory credit arrangements have been made prior to the sale. The right of property shall not pass until after settlement is made. First Class Cattle Marketing reserves the right to require a certified cheque as settlement before releasing any sale cattle. Should the purchaser fail to settle for his purchase, First Class Cattle Marketing reserves full power to resell the animal to the best advantage, either publicly or privately, without further notice. Any loss arising from such resale, together with keep and all other expenses shall be payable by the defaulter. All settlements must be made with the clerks of the sale before any cattle will be released. The owners, First Class Cattle Marketing and sale staff have the right to refuse bids from anyone who has a previous record of default in payment and/or who has not made prior credit arrangements prior to the sale with the owners and/or Sale Management. EXCHANGE Foreign exchange rates will be announced at the beginning of the sale. BID Every animal consigned to the sale must be sold by auction. No bybidding will be permitted. Each animal will be sold to the highest bidder. DISPUTES In cases of disputes, bidding will be reopened between the parties involved. If no further bid is made, the buyer will be the person from whom the auctioneer accepted the last bid. The auctioneer’s decision in such matters will be final. PURCHASERS RISK Each animal becomes the risk of the purchaser as soon as sold. ANNOUNCEMENTS from the auction block will take precedence over printed matter in the catalogue. Buyers are therefore cautioned to pay attention to any such announcements. CERTIFICATE OF REGISTRY The proper Registration of Recordation paper, as the case may be, will be duly transferred and furnished to the buyer for each animal after settlement has been made. SHIPPING Assistance will be given in making shipment after the sale, but Sale Management or Seller assumes no risk. Expenses incurred are the responsibility of the purchaser. Purchasers are requested to furnish shipping instruction when making settlement. GUARANTEE All animals will carry standard breeding guarantee as specified by the applicable Canadian breed Association. At no time shall the seller’s liability exceed the purchased price of the animal. EXCEPTION TO GUARANTEE In cases where the animal is subjected to any hormonal or surgical reproduction techniques after the sale, the guarantee shall be null and void. In the cases of bulls, they are guaranteed to breed naturally according to applicable Canadian breed Association guarantee, but no guarantee is given that semen from any bull will freeze. HEALTH It is the buyer’s responsibility to determine health requirements for importing any animal into his province or state. First Class Cattle Marketing assumes no responsibility for the health status of any animal in the sale. ACCIDENTS Although every precaution will be taken to protect the safety and comfort of buyers, neither the Sale Management, auctioneer, or Association assumes any responsibility in this matter and disclaims any liability legal or otherwise in the event of accident or loss of property. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS The above terms and conditions of the sale shall constitute a contract between the buyer and the seller and be equally binding to both. Resale of animals following purchase in this sale shall constitute a separate transaction and the rights and the terms and conditions of this sale do not cover obligations of the two parties connected thereto. First Class Cattle Marketing IS AGENT ONLY It is clearly understood that First Class Cattle Marketing acts only as agent between buyer and seller and is not in any way responsible for any failure by either party to live up to his or her obligations. First Class Cattle Marketing does not assume any financial obligations to collect or enforce collection of monies by either parties, and in exceptional case, any legal action will be between buyer and seller. First Class Cattle Marketing Ltd has no ownership of the facility and assumes no responsibility for the operation of said facility.

Prairie Hills Gelbvieh and McCarty Cattle Company are proud to offer for auction the last 20 straws of MCCA Gunner 947G! Gunner has been turning heads since he was a calf, first being crowned as reserve champion bull calf at NWSS in 2020. We had hopes of campaigning him last year, but Covid put a stop to that. His first calves are more than speaking for themselves, with an overall weaning ratio of 102 across all calves, and being the leading sire groups at both PHG and McCarty’s. Gunner provides a world-class combination of EPD strength with breed leading phenotype. We offered a limited amount of CSS semen to Canada which sold out in the first week. These 20 straws are stored in Canada and will be the last Canadian semen released for the near future. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to add these outcross, homo polled, genetics to your program! Selling two packages of 10 straws of CSS qualified semen. A: 10 units B: 10 Units
