OSISKO ANNOUNCES TSX APPROVAL TO RENEW NORMAL COURSE ISSUER BID
(Montréal, December 6, 2017) Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd (OR:TSX & NYSE) (the " Corporation" or
"Osisko") today announces that the Toronto Stock Exchange (the " TSX") has approved the
Corporation's notice of intention to make a normal course issuer bid (the " NCIB Program"). Under the
terms of the NCIB Program, Osisko may acquire up to 10,567,441 of its common shares (" Common
Shares") from time to time in accordance with the normal course issuer bid procedures of the TSX.
Any repurchases under the NCIB Program will be made in Canada through the facilities of the TSX.
Repurchases under the NCIB Program may commence on December 11, 2017 and will terminate on
December 10, 2018 or on such earlier date as the NCIB Program is complete. Purchases of Common
Shares under the NCIB Program will be made in Canada through the facilities of the TSX in
accordance with its rules. Daily purchases will be limited to 95,695 Common Shares, other than block
purchase exemptions, representing 25% of the average daily trading volume of the Common Shares
on the TSX for the six month period ending November 30, 2017, being 382,781 Common Shares.
The price that the Corporation may pay for any Common Shares purcha sed under the NCIB Program
will be the prevailing market price at the time of purchase and any Common Shares purchased by the
Corporation will be cancelled. The board of directors of Osisko believes that the underlying value of
the company may not be refle cted in the market price of the Common Shares from time to time and
that, accordingly, the purchase of Common Shares will increase the proportionate interest in the
company of, and be advantageous to, all remaining shareholders of the Corporation.
As of December 4 , 201 7, there were 157,024,383 Common Shares issued and outstanding . The
10,567,441 Common Shares that may be repurchased under the NCIB Program represent
approximately 10% of the public float of the Corporation as of December 4 , 2017, being 105,674,419
Common Shares.
During the prior NCIB Program of the Corporation, which ended on October 23, 2017, the Corporation
obtained approval to purchase 5,330,217 Common Shares and actually purchased 150,000 Common
Shares at a weighted average price of $12.15 per Common Share through the facilities of the TSX.
Osisko has appointed Macquarie Capital Markets Canada Ltd. to make any purchases under the NCIB
Program on its behalf.
