Monday, November 8, 2010

AURORA, Canada, November 9, 2010 - Magna International Inc. (TSX: MG, NYSE: MGA) today announced that the
Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") had accepted its Notice of Intention to Make a
Normal Course Issuer Bid (the "Notice"). Pursuant to the Notice, we may
purchase up to 4,000,000 Magna Common Shares (the "Bid") (adjusted to
8,000,000 Magna Common Shares on a post stock split basis), representing 3.3%
of our issued and outstanding Common Shares. The primary purposes of the Bid
are purchases for cancellation to offset dilution resulting from the exercise
of stock options, as well as purchases to fund our restricted stock unit
program and/or our obligations to our deferred profit sharing plans. As of
November 4, 2010, we had 121,175,733 issued and outstanding Common Shares.

The Bid will commence on November 11, 2010 and will terminate no later
than November 10, 2011. All purchases of Common Shares will be made at the
market price at the time of purchase in accordance with the rules and
policies of the TSX. Purchases may also be made on the New York Stock
Exchange ("NYSE") in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. The rules and policies of the TSX contain restrictions
on the number of shares that can be purchased under the Bid, based on the
average daily trading volumes of the Common Shares on the TSX. Similarly, the
safe harbor conditions of Rule 10b-18 impose certain limitations on the
number of shares that can be purchased on the NYSE per day. As a result of
such restrictions, subject to certain exceptions for block purchases, the
maximum number of shares which can be purchased per day during the Bid on the
TSX is 93,812. Subject to certain exceptions for block purchases, the maximum
number of shares which can be purchased per day on the NYSE will be 25% of
the average daily trading volume for the four calendar weeks preceding the
date of purchase. Subject to regulatory requirements, the actual number of
Common Shares and the timing of purchases, if any, will be determined by us
having regard to future price movements and other factors.
