On July 22, 2020, Dundee Corporation commenced a substantial issuer bid (the “Offer”) to purchase for cancellation up to $44 million in value of its Cumulative 5-Year Rate Reset First Preference Shares, Series 2 (the “Series 2 Shares”) in the capital of Dundee. The Offer is being made by way of a “modified Dutch auction”, which will allow holders who choose to participate in the Offer, subject to the terms and conditions of the Offer, to individually select the price, within a price range of not less than $16.00 and not more than $18.50 per Series 2 Share (in increments of $0.10 per Share), at which they will tender their Series 2 Shares to the Offer. Upon expiry of the Offer, Dundee will determine the lowest purchase price that will allow it to purchase the maximum number of Series 2 Shares tendered to the Offer, having an aggregate purchase price not exceeding $44 million. The Offer will expire on August 27, 2020 or such later time and date to which the Offer may be extended by Dundee, unless varied or withdrawn by Dundee.
