Canadian Net REIT Announces Renewal of Normal Course Issuer Bid

MONTREAL, July 21, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (TSX-V: NET.UN) Canadian Net Real Estate Investment Trust ("Canadian Net" or "the Trust") is pleased to announce that it has received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX") for the annual renewal of its normal course issuer bid ("NCIB").

For its current NCIB that expires on July 31, 2022, the Trust previously sought and received approval from the TSX to repurchase up to 874,140 units of Canadian Net (the "Units"). The Trust did not purchase any Units over the course of this NCIB.

Under the renewed NCIB, Canadian Net may purchase for cancellation, through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange, if in the best interest of the Trust, a maximum of 1,029,636 Units, which represents approximately 5% of the units in circulation. As of today, the Trust has 20,592,733 Units issued and outstanding. Over the course of any 30-day period, the Trust will not purchase more than 411,854 Units in total, which represents 2% of the Units issued and outstanding at this present date.

All purchases and settlements of said securities will be made by the facilities of the TSX Venture in accordance with its rules and regulations. All units redeemed by the Trust pursuant to the NCIB will be cancelled. National Bank Financial will be handling the offer on behalf of the Trust. The price paid by the Trust for the redemption of these units will be the price of the units at the time of acquisition. The renewed normal course issuer bid will begin on August 1, 2022 and will expire on July 31, 2023.

The Board of Trustees of Canadian Net believes that the purchase of units through the NCIB represents a valuable use of the financial resources of the Trust as these interventions can protect as well as enhance value for our unitholders when opportunities arise or in the event of volatility in the unit price.
