Under the normal course issuer bid, the company will repurchase up to 929,421 trust units, representing 10% of its issued and outstanding units. The trust units repurchased will be cancelled.

The bid will continue for a period of 12 months commencing from July 18, 2019 and will expire on July 17, 2020, or on such date as the Fund completes its purchase under the normal course issuer bid or on such date as the Fund may otherwise determine.
