VANCOUVER and TORONTO, Dec. 4, 2019 /CNW/ - Converge Technology Solutions Corp. ("Converge" or the "Company") (TSXV: CTS) (FSE:0ZB) (OTCQX:CTSDF) announces that it has filed a Notice of Intention to Make a Normal Course Issuer Bid with the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"), the implementation of which remains subject to TSXV approval.

The NCIB will commence three trading days after Converge receives TSXV approval and will remain in effect until the earlier of: (i) the date that is 12 months following commencement of the NCIB, (ii) the date upon which Converge acquires the maximum number of Common Shares permitted under the NCIB, or (iii) the date upon which Converge provides written notice of termination of the NCIB to the TSXV.  Converge may not purchase more than 2% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares during any 30-day period, which as at December 3, 2019 represented 1,610,048 Common Shares.

Such purchases will be in the best interests of the Company and will be a desirable use f corporate funds.
