TORONTO, June 5 /CNW/ - COMPASS Income Fund announced today its intention
to make a normal course issuer bid for its units through the facilities of the
Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"). This normal course issuer bid is intended
to commence on June 7, 2006 and will terminate on June 6, 2007. In accordance
with the Declaration of Trust by which COMPASS is governed, market purchases
pursuant to its normal course issuer bid may be effected by the Fund.
At May 30, 2006 there were 21,479,282 units issued and outstanding.
