CALGARY, Alberta, Nov. 01, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Seven Generations Energy Ltd.'s notice of intention to
proceed with its previously announced normal course issuer bid (NCIB) for its class A common shares (common shares) has been
accepted by the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX).
“We believe our shares are trading at a substantial discount to intrinsic value. Our planned share repurchase
program represents an attractive way to create value for our shareholders,” said Marty Proctor, 7G’s President & Chief Executive
Officer.
Under the NCIB, Seven Generations may purchase up to 18,115,666 common shares, representing five percent of the
362,313,320 common shares that were issued and outstanding as at October 30, 2018, during the 12-month period commencing November
5, 2018 and ending November 4, 2019. Under the NCIB, other than purchases made under block purchase exemptions, 7G may purchase up
to 274,218 common shares on the TSX during any trading day, which represents approximately 25 percent of the average daily trading
volume on the TSX for the most recently completed six calendar months prior to the TSX’s acceptance of the notice of the NCIB.
Any purchases made under the NCIB will be made by Seven Generations at then-prevailing market prices through the
facilities of the TSX and/or alternative Canadian trading systems. The actual number of common shares purchased pursuant to the
NCIB and the timing of such purchases will be determined by Seven Generations. Although 7G intends to purchase common shares under
the NCIB, there can be no assurances that any such purchases will be completed. Any common shares purchased under the NCIB will be
cancelled.
In connection with the NCIB, Seven Generations will enter into an automatic securities purchase plan (ASPP) with
a designated broker. The ASPP is intended to allow for the purchase of common shares during certain pre-determined blackout periods
during which 7G would ordinarily not be permitted to purchase common shares. Purchases under the ASPP will be determined by the
designated broker in its sole discretion based on the purchasing parameters set by 7G in accordance with the rules of the TSX,
applicable securities laws and the terms of the ASPP. The ASPP has been pre-cleared by the TSX and will become effective on
November 5, 2018, concurrently with the commencement of the NCIB. Outside of blackout periods, common shares may be purchased under
the NCIB based on management’s discretion, in compliance with TSX rules and applicable securities laws. All purchases made under
the ASPP will be included in computing the number of common shares purchased under the NCIB.
