Alaris has entered into an agreement with a syndicate of underwriters (the “ Underwriters ”) led by CIBC Capital Markets, Acumen Capital Finance Partners Limited and National Bank of Canada Capital Markets, as lead underwriters, pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to purchase, on a bought deal basis, 4,465,000 trust units of the Trust (“ Units ”) at a price of $22.40 per Unit (the “ Offering ”) for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $100 million.
