TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Sep 5, 2014) - Route1 Inc. (TSX VENTURE:ROI), a leading provider of secure access technologies for the mobile workspace that protects businesses and government agencies, and whose customers include the U.S. Department of Defense, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Energy and the Government of Canada, today announced that the TSX Venture Exchange (the Exchange) has accepted a notice filed by Route1 of its intention to make a Normal Course Issuer Bid (the Bid).

The notice provides that Route1 may, during the 12 month period commencing September 11, 2014 and ending September 10, 2015, purchase on the Exchange up to 38,200,991 common shares in total, being approximately 10% of the public float (common shares not held by insiders or related parties). The price which Route1 will pay for any such shares will be the market price at the time of acquisitions, provided, however, that Route1 will not pay more than $0.05 per common share. The actual number of common shares which may be purchased pursuant to the Bid and the timing of any purchases will be determined by management of Route1. All common shares purchased pursuant to the Bid will be purchased for cancellation, and all such purchases will be made on the open market through the facilities of the Exchange. The Bid will be conducted through Paradigm Capital Inc., a member of the Exchange.

Route1 did not make any normal course issuer bid purchases during the twelve months preceding the date of the notice filed with the Exchange.

Route1 believes that its common shares have been trading in a price range which does not adequately reflect the value of such shares in relation to the business of Route1 and its future business prospects. As a result, depending upon future price movements and other factors, Route1 believes that its outstanding common shares may represent an attractive investment to Route1. Furthermore, the purchases are expected to benefit all persons who continue to hold common shares by increasing their equity interest in Route1.
