Starlight U.S. Multi-Family Core Fund Announces Approval of Normal Course Issuer Bid by the TSX Venture Exchange

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/

TORONTO, June 4, 2015 /CNW/ - Starlight U.S. Multi-Family Core Fund (the "Fund") (TSXV: UMF.A, UMF.U) announced today that the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V") has approved the Fund's notice of intention to make a normal course issuer bid (the "Issuer Bid"). Under the Issuer Bid, the Fund will have the ability to purchase for cancellation up to a maximum of 278,999 of its class A limited partnership units (the "Class A Units") and 34,857 of its class U limited partnership units (the "Class U Units" and together with the Class A Units, the "Units"), representing 10% of the Fund's public float of the Class A Units and Class U Units, respectively. The Fund may not purchase more than 2% of the issued and outstanding Class A Units or Class U Units during any 30 day period, which as at May 28, 2015 represented 58,199 Class A Units and 6,991 Class U Units, respectively.

The Issuer Bid will commence on June 11, 2015 and remain in effect until the earlier of: (i) June 10, 2016, (ii) the termination of the Fund if not extended, and (iii) the date on which the Fund has purchased the maximum number of Units permitted under the Issuer Bid.

The Fund has entered into an automatic unit purchase plan (the "Plan") with Scotia Capital Inc. in order to facilitate repurchases of the Units under the Issuer Bid. Purchases under the Plan will be made by the Fund's broker based on the parameters prescribed by the TSX-V, applicable Canadian securities laws and the terms of the parties' written agreement. The Plan is intended for the purchase of Units only under the Issuer Bid.  Under the Plan, the Fund's broker may purchase Units under the Issuer Bid when the Fund would ordinarily not be permitted to do so. The Plan commences on June 11, 2015 and expires on June 10, 2016, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of the parties' written agreement.

The Fund believes the current market prices of the Units do not reflect their underlying value. Accordingly, the Fund has implemented the Issuer Bid because it believes that Units may become available during the period of the Issuer Bid at prices that would make the purchase of such Units for cancellation in the best interests of the Fund and its Unitholders.
