Evertz Technologies Limited Announces Proposed New Normal Course Issuer Bid

Attention Business/Financial Editors:

Evertz Technologies Limited's (TSX:ET) ("Evertz") Board of Directors has
authorized the implementation of a new normal course issuer bid (the "2013
NCIB"). Evertz recently completed a normal course issuer bid which expired, in
accordance with its terms, on July 16, 2013. Pursuant to the 2013 NCIB, Evertz
intends to purchase up to 3,700,397 of its common shares by way of normal course
purchases on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") subject to the approval of the
TSX or, as otherwise permitted, on other eligible designated exchanges or
alternative platforms in Canada (each, a "Designated Exchange"). As such, Evertz
intends to file the required notice with the TSX to obtain such approval as soon
as practicable. The common shares authorized to be purchased, represent 5% of
the common shares outstanding on August 18, 2013.


Evertz believes that its common shares currently trade in a price range that
does not adequately reflect their underlying value based on Evertz business and
strong financial position. As a result, depending upon future price movements
and other factors, Evertz believes that its outstanding common shares represent
an attractive investment and a desirable use of a portion of its corporate
funds.


The purchases on the TSX may commence on the date that is two trading days after
the latest of (i) the date of acceptance by the TSX of Evertz's notice of
intention in final executed form, and (ii) the date that Evertz issues the press
release required by the TSX. It is expected that the purchases will terminate
not more than one year after the purchases commence, or on such earlier date as
Evertz may complete its purchases.


Purchases will be made by Evertz in accordance with applicable regulatory
requirements and the price which Evertz will pay for any such common shares will
be the market price of such shares at the time of acquisition. The common shares
purchased will be cancelled.


To the knowledge of Evertz, no director, senior officer or other insider of
Evertz currently intends to sell any common shares under this bid. However,
sales by such persons through the facilities of the TSX or other Designated
Exchange may occur if the personal circumstances of any such person change or
any such person makes a decision unrelated to these normal course purchases. The
benefits to any such person whose shares are purchased would be the same as the
benefits available to all other holders whose shares are purchased.


Forward-Looking Information:

This press release contains certain "forward-looking information". All
statements, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities,
events or developments that Evertz believes, expects or anticipates will or may
occur in the future (including, without limitation, statements relating to
Evertz's intention to purchase its common shares under the normal course issuer
bid) constitute forward-looking information. This forward-looking information
reflects the current expectations or beliefs of Evertz based on information
currently available to Evertz as well as certain assumptions including, without
limitation, the anticipated approval by the TSX of Evertz's notice of intention
to repurchase its common shares pursuant to the terms of proposed 2013 NCIB.
Forward-looking information is subject to a number of significant risks and
uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results of Evertz to
differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking information, and
even if such actual results are realized or substantially realized, there can be
no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on
Evertz. Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially
from current expectations include, but are not limited to, the failure of Evertz
to obtain TSX approval of the 2013 NCIB in a timely manner.


Any forward-looking information speaks only as of the date on which it is made
and, except as may be required by applicable securities laws, Evertz disclaims
any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking information, whether as a
result of new information, future events or results or otherwise. Although
Evertz believes that the assumptions inherent in the forward-looking information
are reasonable, forward-looking information is not a guarantee of future
performance and accordingly undue reliance should not be put on such information
due to the inherent uncertainty therein.
