T.DOL

Canada NewsWire

MONTREAL, Dec. 28, 2016 /CNW Telbec/ - Dollarama Inc. (TSX: DOL) ("Dollarama" or the "Corporation") announced today that it intends to purchase for cancellation up to 300,000 of its common shares pursuant to private agreements between Dollarama and two arm's‑length third party sellers. The purchases will form part of Dollarama's normal course issuer bid announced on June 8, 2016, which provides authorization for the purchase of up to 5,975,854 common shares during the 12-month period from June 17, 2016 to June 16, 2017.  

Such purchases will be made pursuant and subject to the terms of issuer bid exemption orders issued by the Ontario Securities Commission and the Autorité des marchés financiers and will take place before June 16, 2017. In accordance with the orders, Dollarama's purchases under private agreements will not exceed, in the aggregate, one-third of the maximum number of shares that it may purchase under its normal course issuer bid, or 1,991,951 common shares. The price that Dollarama will pay for common shares purchased by it under such agreements will be negotiated between Dollarama and each of the third-party sellers and will be at a discount to the prevailing market price of Dollarama's common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange at the time of each purchase.

Information regarding the purchases, including the number of common shares purchased from each third party seller and the aggregate purchase price paid to each third party seller, will be available on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) at www.sedar.com following the completion of each purchase.
