Wireless Matrix Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid

"We believe our common shares may be undervalued in relation to our current and future business prospects and may represent a worthwhile investment. We believe the purchase of outstanding common shares of the Corporation represents a good use of our cash in light of potential benefits to remaining shareholders," said J. Richard Carlson, Chief Executive Officer and President of Wireless Matrix.

The Corporation's normal course issuer bid will commence August 9, 2011 and terminate on August 8, 2012, unless earlier terminated by the Corporation. Common shares purchased under the normal course issuer bid will be cancelled.

The price that Wireless Matrix will pay for any such common shares will be the market price at the time of acquisition. The maximum number of common shares that may be purchased on a daily basis, subject to any approved exceptions, will be 4,897 common shares. Wireless Matrix has not purchased any of its common shares in the previous twelve month period. The Corporation has 83,510,625 common shares outstanding as at July 28, 2011.

Versant Partners Inc. will conduct the bid on behalf of the Corporation. The Corporation intends to enter into an automatic share purchase plan with Versant Partners Inc. in connection with the normal course issuer bid to allow for the repurchase of Common Shares at times when Wireless Matrix ordinarily would not be active in the market due to its internal trading blackout periods, insider trading prohibitions under applicable securities laws or otherwise. The bid has been approved by the TSX, and will be affected through the facilities of the TSX.
