The net proceeds of C$72 million (after deducting a C$3 million underwriters’ fee and before expenses) are intended to redeem ECN’s outstanding senior unsecured debentures due December 31, 2025.

The offering was led by CIBC World Markets Inc., with joint bookrunners National Bank Financial Inc., BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., and RBC Dominion Securities Inc.
