5.1 Full Description of Material Change

IPG announced an agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of Cantech, a privately-owned North American supplier of industrial and specialty tapes based in Montreal for an aggregate purchase price of approximately US$63 million, and the concurrent increase in the borrowing limit of IPG’s revolving credit facility from US$300 million to US$450 million.

Cantech unaudited revenues for the twelve months ended March 31, 2017 are estimated at US$61 million. The purchase price will be financed with funds available under IPG’s revolving credit facility as amended and discussed further below. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2017. The completion of this transaction is subject to customary conditions.

In conjunction with the acquisition of Cantech, IPG also announced a US$150 million increase in the borrowing limit of its existing US$300 million revolving credit facility, bringing the facility’s credit limit to US$450 million. The amended credit agreement


will continue to include an incremental accordion feature of US$150 million, enabling the Company to further increase the credit limit of this facility if needed, subject to the credit agreement’s existing terms and lender approval. The Company expects to use the additional credit primarily to finance the Cantech acquisition as well as its continued expansion through other possible acquisitions and capital expenditures.
