LONGUEUIL, QC, Sept. 23, 2015 /CNW Telbec/ - Mediagrif Interactive Technologies Inc. ("Mediagrif" or the "Corporation") (TSX: MDF), a world-leading operator of e-business solutions, announces the amendment of its Normal Course Issuer Bid ("NCIB") in accordance with the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"). The purpose of the amendment is to increase the number of shares that Mediagrif may purchase under the NCIB from 500,000 to 750,000 common shares, representing approximately 4.82% of the 15,542,255 issued and outstanding shares as of February 19, 2015. Daily repurchases are not affected by the amendment and will be limited to 1,467 common shares, other than block purchase exemptions. The common shares will be repurchased by Mediagrif for cancellation.
The number of common shares that Mediagrif intends to repurchase and the time of such repurchases will be determined by Mediagrif, at its discretion. The repurchase period is not affected by this amendment; it will therefore end on the earlier of February 23, 2016 or the date on which Mediagrif will have either acquired the maximum number of common shares pursuant to this amendment or otherwise decided not make any further repurchases. All the common shares acquired under the NCIB will be repurchased at their market price at the time of acquisition.
None of Mediagrif's directors or senior officers, nor any of their associates, nor any person acting jointly or in concert with Mediagrif, or holding 10% or more of the shares of any class of shares of Mediagrif, will receive any direct or indirect benefit as a result of this NCIB other than the benefits conferred upon all the shareholders of Mediagrif. As of the date hereof, Mediagrif has purchased 481,109 common shares at a weighted average purchase price of $16.95 per share under its NCIB that started on February 24, 2015 and terminates on February 23, 2016.
