Boyd Group Income Fund Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid For Its Trust Units

Winnipeg, Manitoba - December 3, 2008 - The Boyd Group Income Fund (TSX: BYD.UN) (the “Fund”) today announced that the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) has approved its Notice of Intention to carry out a Normal Course Issuer Bid (the “Bid”) to purchase for cancellation, from time to time, as the Fund considers advisable, its issued and outstanding trust units (the “Units”). The Fund recently completed a one year Bid on October 14, 2008, whereby the Fund purchased 561,700 Units at an average Unit price of approximately $2.76. As of November 30, 2008, there were 11,186,278 Units issued and outstanding. Of this amount, 10,811,357 Units constitute the “public float”. In accordance with TSX requirements, the maximum number of Units that may be purchased on a daily basis, other than block purchase exceptions, has been calculated to be 1,858 Units. On November 3, 2008 the TSX announced it was providing temporary relief to issuers that would permit them to purchase a higher maximum number per day. For the Fund, this results in it being able to purchase a maximum of 3,716 units per day until March 31, 2009. The Fund has the potential to make bulk purchases that exceed the daily limit, however, the Fund is subject to an overall annual limit of 10% of its public float or 1,081,136. Purchases will be made on the open market through the TSX. The price the Fund will pay for any Units purchased through the Bid will be the prevailing market price of the Units on the TSX at the time of such purchase. The actual number of Units that may be purchased for cancellation and the timing of such purchases will be determined by the Fund giving consideration to available cash flow and such other factors that the Fund deems relevant.

The Bid will commence on December 5, 2008 and will terminate on December 4, 2009 or such earlier time as the Bid is completed or terminated at the option of the Fund.

The Trustees of the Fund believe that, from time to time, the market price of the Units may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Units and that at such times the purchase of Units would be in the best interest of the Fund. Such purchases will increase the proportionate ownership interest of all remaining unitholders. In addition, the purchases by the Fund may enhance liquidity for Fund unitholders.
