Alaris Royalty Corp. Provides an Update Regarding Agility Health

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Nov. 4, 2016) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS RESTRICTION MAY CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF UNITED STATES SECURITIES LAW.

Alaris Royalty Corp. ("Alaris" or the "Corporation") (TSX:AD) is providing an update today regarding Agility Health, LLC ("Agility").

Agility has been undertaking a strategic process (the "Agility Process") with the intention of repurchasing Alaris' preferred units in Agility (the "Alaris Repurchase"). During the Agility Process, Alaris agreed to defer the monthly distributions (the "Deferred Distributions") from Agility from March 2016 through September 2016. The distributions from Agility (US$254,901 per month) restarted as expected in October 2016 but the amount of previously Deferred Distributions remain outstanding. Alaris has now formally demanded that Agility repurchase the units (the "Agility Units") of Agility held by Alaris at a premium to Alaris' original cost as provided under our agreements with Agility. However, Alaris has indicated that it will refrain from exercising further rights and remedies available to it for a period of 90 days, subject to Agility continuing to meet certain conditions. Alaris intends to work with Agility to help facilitate a transaction that Agility is currently working on, which would see the Agility Units repurchased within 90 days, but for which no formal agreements have been finalized. The Corporation will provide further updates when necessary.

About the Corporation:

Alaris provides alternative financing to private company partners (the "Partners") in exchange for distributions with the principal objective of generating stable and predictable cash flows for dividend payments to its shareholders. Distributions from the Partners are adjusted each year based on the percentage change of a "top line" financial performance measure such as gross margin and same-store sales and rank in priority to the owners' common equity position.
