Route1 Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Sept. 15, 2017) - Route1
Inc. (TSX VENTURE:ROI)(OTCQB:ROIUF) (the Company or Route1), a world-leader in secure data protection technologies and
user authentication for government and enterprise, today announced that it has provided the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange")
its Notice of Intention to move forward with a further normal course issuer bid ("NCIB"), subject to approval by the
Exchange.
The notice provides that Route1 may, during the 12 month period commencing September 27, 2017 and ending September 26, 2018,
purchase on the Exchange up to 17,359,671 common shares in total, being approximately 5% of the outstanding common shares. The
price which Route1 will pay for any such shares will be the market price at the time of acquisitions, provided, however, that
Route1 will not pay more than $0.05 per common share. The actual number of common shares which may be purchased pursuant to the
NCIB and the timing of any purchases will be determined by management of Route1. All common shares purchased pursuant to the NCIB
will be purchased for cancellation, and all such purchases will be made on the open market through the facilities of the
Exchange. The NCIB will be conducted through Paradigm Capital Inc., a member of the Exchange.
From September 27, 2016 to September 14, 2017, the Company had purchased a total of 3,884,000 common shares under the current
normal course issuer bid at an average price of $0.04 per share.
Route1 believes that its common shares have been trading in a price range which does not adequately reflect the value of such
shares in relation to the business of Route1 and its future business prospects. As a result, depending upon future price
movements and other factors, Route1 believes that its outstanding common shares may represent an attractive investment to Route1.
Furthermore, the purchases are expected to benefit all persons who continue to hold common shares by increasing their equity
interest in Route1.
