("Morguard") announced today that the Toronto Stock Exchange (the
"TSX") has accepted a notice filed by Morguard of its intention to
make a normal course issuer bid through the facilities of the TSX and/or
alternative Canadian trading systems.</p><p>The notice provides that
Morguard may, during the twelve-month period commencing September 22, 2019 and
ending September 21, 2020 purchase up to 564,117 common shares ("Common
Shares") in total, being approximately 5% of the issued and outstanding
Common Shares. The daily repurchase restriction for the Common Shares is 1,000.
Common Shares purchased under the normal course issuer bid will be
cancelled. The price that Morguard will pay for any such Common Shares
will be the market price at the time of acquisition. Management of
Morguard will determine the actual number of Common Shares that may be
purchased and the timing of any such purchases, subject to compliance with TSX
guidelines. </p><p>Under its previous normal
course issuer bid, Morguard was approved to purchase up to 569,854 Common
Shares. Morguard purchased 81,229 Common Shares for cancellation during
the last twelve months at an average cost per share of $185.10 through the
facilities of the TSX and/or alternative Canadian trading systems. As of
September 11, 2019, there were 11,282,342 Common Shares outstanding. Morguard's
average daily trading volume for the prior six months is 1,199.</p><p>Morguard believes that its
Common Shares have been trading in price ranges which do not adequately reflect
their value in relation to the business of Morguard and its future business
prospects. As a result, depending upon future price movements and other
factors, Morguard believes that its outstanding Common Shares may represent an
attractive investment. Furthermore, the purchases are expected to benefit
all persons who continue to hold Common Shares by increasing their
proportionate interest in Morguard.</p><p><strong>About Morguard Corporation</strong><br></p><p>Morguard Corporation is a major
North American real estate and property management company. It has
extensive retail, office, industrial, hotel and residential holdings owned

<span lang="EN-US">Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) creates individual and group mentoring relationships amongst adults (‘Big Brothers’ or ‘Big Sisters’) and youth (‘Little Brothers’ or ‘Little Sisters’).

<span lang="EN-US"><strong>Drew Pierson<br></strong></span><span lang="EN-US">Community Manager, Verandah <br></span><span lang="EN-US">Valley Ranch, Irving, Texas, United States</span></p><p>
<span lang="EN-US">Drew comes from a large family and always knew he wanted to be a parent and a positive influence in the lives of children. After two years with BBBS as a ‘Big Brother’, he gained the experience required to become a foster parent – a dream of his that would have been impossible to achieve if he hadn’t joined BBBS. </span></p><p>
<span lang="EN-US">Having seen the benefits that a ‘Big’ could bring to a ‘Little’, Drew immediately signed his daughter Courtney up to become a ‘Little Sister’ so she could have a strong female figure in her life. When Courtney was matched with B, her ‘Big Sister’, they immediately got along. They often go together to sporting events, museums, back-to-school fairs and concerts. </span></p><p>
<span lang="EN-US">When Drew was approached to talk about his experience with BBBS, he was quick to accept in the hopes of sharing the incredible impact that being a ‘Big’ can have on the life of a ‘Little.’ The emphasis in BBBS and BeYou on being yourself really resonates with his family. Drew hopes that more people participate in the program to help encourage youth to have confidence and take pride in who they are. </span></p><p>

<span lang="EN-US">When Mary was 13, she was having difficulties in school and at home. BBBS came into the picture, matching Mary with Diane, a ‘Big Sister’ that soon became her friend and idol. They would go hiking, canoeing, swimming, skating and watch movies together. Diane even took Mary to her first baseball game and to pick out a Christmas tree from a real Christmas tree farm.</span></p><p>
<span lang="EN-US">Diane led by example, showing Mary that if she wanted to reach her goals and be happy, she would have to get better grades, continue her education and have a strong work ethic. She helped Mary to respect herself as a person and gave her the courage to change for the better. Since then, they have both gotten married, had children, and through it all they’ve had each other. </span></p><p>
<span lang="EN-US">Many years since her time as a ‘Little’, Mary is still grateful for Diane, and her decision to make a difference in the life of a ‘Little.’ </span></p><p>

<span lang="EN-US">Growing up with a mentor, Tricia realized how great it was to be able to connect and receive wisdom from another person who had more life experience than herself.

While she was a little unsure of how to begin building a relationship with a ‘Little’, after being matched in 2014 with her ‘Little Sister,’ Natalia, things fell into place. </span></p><p>
<span lang="EN-US">Natalia and Tricia have built their relationship spending quality time together. Their favourite activities include baking, bowling, playing board games, watching movies, going for walks and joining special events in the city, such as the Christmas Light Tour. In October of 2019, Natalia will turn 18 and become a BBBS alumni. At that time, the organization will match Tricia with a new ‘Little’ to continue the positive mentorship she has provided. </span></p><p>

in 2018. The decrease in net income of $26.6 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2019, was primarily due to the following:</p><ul><li><p>A decrease
in NOI of $10.1 million, primarily due to the land rent arbitration
settlement of $17.3 million received during the second quarter of 2018,
partially offset by an increase in NOI due to acquisitions completed
subsequent to June 30, 2018, and the impact of the adoption of IFRS 16,
resulting in land rent expense being included in NOI in the comparative
period while effective January 1, 2019, a finance charge is included in
interest expense;</p></li><li><p>A decrease
in management and advisory fees of $2.0 million, primarily due a decrease
in asset management, property management and leasing fees earned as
compared to 2018;</p></li><li><p>An increase
in interest and other income of $3.1 million, primarily due to higher
income earned from investments and finance lease receivable;</p></li><li><p>An increase
in interest expense of $5.2 million, mainly due to interest on lease
liabilities (noted above), higher interest on Unsecured Debentures and
higher interest on mortgages payable;</p></li><li><p>A decrease
in property management and corporate expense of $1.3 million, primarily
due to a decrease in non-cash compensation expense related to the
Company's stock appreciation rights plan ("SARs");</p></li><li><p>A decrease
in provision for impairment of $6.7 million due to the recognition of
impairment provision at two hotel properties located in Alberta during the
second quarter of 2018;<br></p></li><li><p>A decrease
in non-cash net fair value gain of $25.2 million, mainly due to a lower
net fair value gain on real estate properties, partially offset by a
decrease in net fair value loss on Morguard Residential REIT Units; </p></li><li><p>An increase
in equity loss from investments of $4.3 million, mainly due to an increase
in fair value loss;</p></li><li><p>A decrease
in other income of $4.6 million, mainly due to a gain on the recognition
of a finance lease upon the completion of the Company's development

from an increase of $0.7 million mainly from rental rate growth, improved
occupancy and lower operating expenses, and an increase in NOI of $0.3

two properties located in Chicago, partially offset by an increase of

of $2.4 million in Canadian retail properties resulting from an increase
of $1.5 million due to the adoption of IFRS 16, an increase of $1.3

expenses at the Canadian properties. </p></li><li><p>An increase

two properties during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2018, which
resulted in an increase of $2.0 million;</p></li><li><p>A decrease
in the industrial portfolio of $0.3 million, primarily due to a lease

property located in Ottawa, Ontario; </p></li><li><p>A decrease
in the hotel portfolio by $0.3 million due to a decrease of $1.8 million
resulting from higher vacancy at hotels located in Alberta, a decrease of
$0.7 million due to the re-branding of a hotel located in Red Deer,
Alberta, partially offset by an increase of $1.3 million at the newly
re-developed dual branded Hilton Garden Inn and Homewood Suites by Hilton
located in Ottawa, Ontario which commenced its operations on January 1,
2019, and $0.9 million due to an increase in the average daily room rate
