Pursuant to a previous notice of intention to conduct a NCIB, under which Granite REIT sought and received approval from the TSX to purchase up to 6,273,168 Units for the period of May 24, 2024 to May 23, 2025, Granite REIT has purchased, as of May 20, 2025, 2,143,245 Units on the open market at a weighted average purchase price of $66.8627 per Unit.
