NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

• Dundee Acquisition Ltd. positioned to be first Canadian publicly listed "Special Purpose Acquisition Corporation"

Dundee Corporation (TSX:DC.A) and Dundee Acquisition Ltd. ("Dundee Acquisition") announce that Dundee Acquisition has filed a preliminary prospectus with the securities regulatory authorities in all provinces and territories of Canada and has obtained a receipt therefor in respect of its initial public offering (the "Offering") of $100,000,000 of Class A Units. The proceeds from the distribution of the Class A Units will be deposited into an escrow account and will only be released upon certain prescribed conditions.

Dundee Acquisition is a newly organized special purpose acquisition corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or assets within the specified time period (the "Qualifying Acquisition").

Dundee Corporation is the sponsor of Dundee Acquisition. Dundee Corporation is a Canadian independent holding company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol "DC.A."

Each Class A Unit has an offering price of $10.00 per Class A Unit and consists of one Class A Limited Voting Share and one-half of a warrant ("Warrant"). Following the Qualifying Acquisition, each Class A Limited Voting Share will be automatically converted into one Class B Share and each whole Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Class B Share of Dundee Acquisition at an exercise price of $11.50, subject to the terms and conditions described in the preliminary prospectus. Upon certain events, the Class A Limited Voting Shares, forming part of the Class A Units, will be redeemable by holders for a pro-rata portion of the escrow account, net of taxes payable and other prescribed amounts, as further described in the preliminary prospectus.

Commenting on the preliminary filing, David Goodman, President and CEO of Dundee Corporation and Chair of Dundee Acquisition said: "Our goal, with the creation of Dundee Acquisition, is to introduce a new and alternative investment platform - a Special Purpose Acquisition Corporation or SPAC - to the Canadian financial market. Special purpose acquisition corporations have been used successfully for years in other markets globally as a means to create long-term shareholder value. We expect Dundee Acquisition will be the first Canadian SPAC."

The Class A Units are being distributed by a syndicate of agents being led by TD Securities Inc. and Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation, and includes National Bank Financial Inc. and Dundee Securities Ltd.
