Anthony Clark- Normal Course Issuer Bid

CALGARY, Alberta--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- ANTHONY CLARK INTERNATIONAL INSURANCE BROKERS LTD. (TSX Venture Exchange: ACL;OTCQX: ACKBF;) (the "Corporation") announces that it has made application for the necessary regulatory approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") to make a normal course issuer bid.

The Corporation intends to purchase up to 969,468 of its common shares by way of normal course purchases on the Exchange, representing 10% of the public float on May 7, 2013. The purchases may commence on May 20, 2013 and will terminate on May 19, 2014 or on such earlier date as the Corporation completes its purchases.


Purchases will be made by the Corporation in accordance with Exchange requirements and the price which the Corporation will pay for any such common shares will be the market price of such shares at the time of acquisition. All purchases will be effected through the facilities of the Exchange. All purchased common shares will be cancelled. PI Financial Corp. has been retained by the Corporation to conduct the normal course issuer bid on behalf of the Corporation.

Under its previous normal course issuer bid from (May 19, 2012 to April 30, 2013), the Corporation purchased 218,500 of its common shares representing approximately 2.22 % of the Corporation's issued and outstanding common shares as at May 6, 2012, for an average price of $0. 157 per common share. The Corporation believes that the market price of its common shares could be such that their purchase may be an attractive and appropriate use of corporate funds in light of potential benefits to remaining shareholders.

To the knowledge of the Corporation, no director, senior officer or other insider of the Corporation currently intends to sell any common shares under this bid. However, sales by such persons through the facilities of the Exchange may occur if the personal circumstances of any such person changes or any such person makes a decision unrelated to these normal course purchases. The benefits to any such person whose shares are purchased would be the same as the benefits available to all other holders whose shares are purchased.

The TSX Venture Exchange has not reviewed and does not accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
