Yonge Street announces that the trading of its shares will resume on August 14,

Transaction is not completed before that date, the TSX Venture Exchange may
suspend from trading or delist the listed shares of Yonge Street.

complete a Qualifying Transaction or, alternatively, seek approval of the
majority of its shareholders (exclusive of the votes of arm's length parties)
for the transfer of Yonge Street to NEX.


Investors are cautioned that trading in the securities of a capital pool company
should be considered highly speculative.
