Dear Fellow StoneMor Stockholder:

We recently sent you proxy materials in connection with the Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) of StoneMor Inc. (“StoneMor;” NYSE: STON) to vote on the proposed merger (the “Merger”) with a subsidiary of Axar Capital Management, LP (“Axar”) to be held on November 1, 2022 at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

At the special meeting, StoneMor stockholders will be asked, among other things, to consider and vote on a proposal (the “Merger Proposal”) to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement dated May 24, 2002 by and among Axar Cemetery Parent Corp., Axar Cemetery Merger Corp. and StoneMor (the “Merger Agreement”). Under the Merger Agreement, each share of StoneMor common stock (other than certain excluded shares as described in the Merger Agreement) will receive a cash payment of $3.50, which would represent a 54.2% premium to the Company’s closing share price on May 24, 2022, the last trading day prior to announcement of the execution of the Merger Agreement.

The StoneMor Board of Directors (other than Andrew Axelrod, the Chair of the Board and sole member of Axar’s general partner, who did not attend the meeting at which the Merger Agreement was considered), has (a) unanimously determined that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are fair to and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders (other than the holders of Axar Shares and Insider Shares, as defined in the Merger Agreement) and (b) unanimously recommended that StoneMor stockholders vote “FOR” the Merger Proposal and its other proposals, based on the compelling reasons set forth in the proxy statement dated September 20, 2022.

Please Vote Today! Your Vote is Extremely Important No Matter How Many Shares You Hold.
