VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 08/27/14

Coast Wholesale Appliances Inc. (TSX: CWA) ("Coast") announced today that it has completed its previously announced plan of arrangement, whereby CWAL Investments Ltd. ("CWAL") acquired all of the outstanding common shares of Coast it did not already own and holders of such shares will receive cash consideration of $4.65 for each share held (the "Arrangement"). This announcement comes following the approval of the Arrangement by Coast's shareholders on August 21, 2014 and the issuance of a final order of the Supreme Court of British Columbia on August 22, 2014 approving the Arrangement.

As part of the closing of the Arrangement, all five members of the board of directors of Coast have resigned and Harlow Burrows, Gordon Christoff and Randy Ryzak have been appointed as directors. Maurice Paquette and Gordon Howie will continue to serve as Coast's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, respectively.

Coast has applied for its common shares to be delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange and expects such delisting to be effective as of the close of markets on or about September 2, 2014. In addition, Coast intends to voluntarily surrender its reporting issuer status or apply to the relevant Canadian securities regulatory authorities for an order declaring Coast to no longer be a reporting issuer.
