The Rogers Sale, whereby Rogers Communications will purchase Mobilicity for a purchase price of  $465 million, subject to certain adjustments, is the best available way to realize value for Mobilicity's stakeholders.

"I'm pleased that, following a robust sale and bidding process, we were able to agree on a purchase price to complete a going-concern sale that addresses the needs of a number of stakeholders," said William Aziz, Chief Restructuring Officer. "I thank subscribers, employees, dealers, suppliers and creditors for their continued support of Mobilicity throughout the restructuring process."

Pursuant to the Rogers Sale, Mobilicity's trade liabilities will continue to be dealt with in the ordinary course, all employees, dealers and other obligations will be assumed by Rogers Communications and services for subscribers will continue uninterrupted.
