/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE U.S. OR OVER U.S. NEWSWIRES/

TORONTO, Nov. 15, 2012 /CNW/ -True North Apartment Real Estate Investment Trust (TSXV: TN.UN) (the "REIT") today announced a cash distribution of $0.0233 per trust unit ("Unit") for the period from November 1, 2012 and ending November 30, 2012.

Unitholders can participate in the REIT's unitholder Distribution Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP").

No assurances can be made that new Units will be made available under the DRIP on a regular basis, or at all. The DRIP provides an efficient and cost-effective way for the REIT to issue additional equity to existing unitholders.
