The Corporation believes that from time to time the common shares of the Corporation have been trading at prices that do not fully reflect the underlying value of the Corporation. As a result, the Corporation believes that its common shares are a good investment at its current and recent prices.
'With a cash balance in excess of our planned needs, an expected continued strong silver market and management′s belief that the current stock price does not reflect the underlying company value, we feel that this is a very prudent investment for the benefit of shareholders at this time,' commented Gordon Pridham, Executive Chairman of U.S. Silver. 'We intend to begin repurchasing stock subject to the terms of this Normal Course Issuer Bid at our earliest opportunity.'
The Corporation may from time to time enter into a pre-defined plan with a registered investment dealer to allow for the repurchase of common shares at times when the Corporation ordinarily would not be active in the market due to its own internal trading blackout periods, insider trading rules, or otherwise. This plan will be adopted in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.
