CALGARY, AB, March 9, 2021 /CNW/ - Alaris Equity Partners Income Trust ("Alaris" or the "Trust") announces today that under its bought deal financing (the "Offering") which closed on March 3, 2021, the underwriters of the Offering have partially exercised and concluded their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 596,875 trust units of the Trust (the "Trust Units") at the offering price of $16.00 per Trust Unit for additional gross proceeds of $9,550,000. As a result of closing of the over-allotment option, Alaris issued an aggregate of 5,909,375 Trust Units pursuant to the Offering for aggregate gross proceeds of $94,550,000.

In connection with the closing of the over-allotment option, Alaris and the Underwriters have agreed to terminate the remaining and unexercised portion of the over-allotment option and the Underwriters have advised Alaris that all distribution activities relating the Offering have ceased.
