MULLEN GROUP LTD. ANNOUNCES NORMAL COURSE ISSUER BID

OKOTOKS, AB, June 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - (TSX:MTL) Mullen Group Ltd. ("Mullen" or the "Company") announced today that the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") has accepted Mullen's Notice of Intention to commence a Normal Course Issuer Bid (the "Bid") to purchase, from time to time, as it considers advisable, up to 7,689,971 common shares (which is equal to 10% of the "public float" of 76,899,714 common shares) on the open market through the facilities of the TSX.

The Bid follows the expiration of Mullen's previous bid which will expire on June 15, 2011.  During the course of the previous bid, Mullen did not repurchase any of its common shares.

The number of common shares that can be purchased pursuant to the Bid is subject to a daily maximum of 43,645 common shares (which is equal to 25% of the average daily trading volume of the common shares of Mullen from December 1, 2010 through to May 31, 2011). The price that Mullen will pay for any common share under the Bid will be the prevailing market price on the TSX at the time of such purchase. Common shares acquired under the Bid will be subsequently cancelled.  Mullen currently has 79,937,383 common shares outstanding.

The Bid will commence on June 16, 2011 and will terminate on June 15, 2012 or such earlier time as the Bid is completed or terminated at the option of Mullen. A copy of the Form 12 - Notice of Intention to make a Normal Course Issuer Bid filed by the Company with the TSX can be obtained from the Company upon request without charge.

The Company has commenced the Bid because it believes that, from time to time, the market price of its securities may not properly reflect the underlying, intrinsic value of Mullen, and that, at such times, the purchase of common shares for cancellation will increase the proportionate interest of, and be advantageous to, all remaining shareholders. 

Mullen is recognized as the largest provider of specialized transportation and related services to the oil and natural gas industry in western Canada and as one of the leading suppliers of trucking and logistics services in Canada - two sectors of the economy in which Mullen has strong business relationships and industry leadership.  Additional information is available on our website at www.mullen-group.com.
