COF.H Coventree

A correction from source is issued for the release c7021 dated October 24, 2011 at 8:23 PM ET. The error occurred in the second paragraph in the description of the cease trade order that OSC staff is seeking. Staff is seeking an order to prevent trading in securities by Coventree until it is wound up, not an order preventing trading in Coventree securities. The complete and corrected version follows. NEX Symbol:  COF.H TORONTO, Oct. 24, 2011 /CNW/ - Coventree Inc. (NEX: COF.H) ("Coventree" or the "Company") today provided a further update regarding the previously announced sanction hearing to be held on October 26 and 27, 2011 by the Ontario Securities Commission ("OSC") in connection with the proceedings commenced by OSC staff against Coventree and one current officer, Geoffrey Cornish, and one former officer, Dean Tai. Staff of the OSC has advised Coventree that, at the sanction hearing, it will be seeking a number of sanctions against the respondents including an order requiring that Coventree and Messrs. Tai and Cornish each pay an administrative penalty of $5 million and jointly pay $1.5 million in costs incurred during Staff's investigation.  Staff is also seeking an order that trading in any securities by Coventree cease until such time as Coventree is wound up, that Coventree be prohibited from becoming a registrant under securities legislation until it is wound up and that Coventree be prohibited from making use of any securities law exemptions until such time as Coventree is wound up. Coventree will oppose Staff's position on sanctions against Coventree, including the monetary penalties described above. Staff has also advised that they will be seeking an order that Messrs. Tai and Cornish may not seek or accept any indemnification from Coventree in relation to any administrative penalty ordered by the OSC against them. Coventree understands that Messrs. Tai and Cornish intend to oppose such an order. Coventree intends to provide a further update following the completion of the sanction hearing.
