Woodfine Professional Centres Limited Partnership Announces Negotiations for Purchase of Lands in Alberta


VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - April 9, 2015) -

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION OR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES

WOODFINE PROFESSIONAL CENTRES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP ("Partnership") announces that, following authorization from the board of its General Partner to acquire Qualified Investments, the Partnership has submitted written offers to purchase, and has received favourable responses from the owners of potential five building sites in secondary markets in Alberta. The criteria that define a Qualified Investment are referred to below.

These responses confirm the General Partner's view that land in Alberta suitable for the construction of WOODFINE PROFESSIONAL CENTRES is available for purchase at prices that are within the range expected by the General Partner.

The General Partner is assessing the responses to its offers, and plans to continue negotiations with owners leading to signature of written purchase agreements, as determined by the General Partner. Purchase agreements will be conditional on the Partnership's success in raising the capital it requires to close the purchase of land and meet its ongoing obligations.

The Partnership previously announced the closing of the issue of $1,000,000 of limited partnership units on December 31, 2014, and the marketing of a subsequent private placement whereby it plans to raise up to $7,000,000 from the sale of limited partnership units at $100 per unit to accredited investors in Canada (except in the province of Québec). The closing date for this offering has been extended from March 31 to June 30, 2015. The Partnership may make additional offerings of units in order to fulfil its business plan, and raise a maximum of $50,000,000 by means of the sale of limited partnership units.

The Partnership is a reporting issuer under securities legislation in Canada. The securities issued by the Partnership are not listed on a stock exchange.
