VSE Launches VC Info: A comprehensive Listed Company Database

Vancouver, B.C. - The Vancouver Stock Exchange has launched the official release of VC INFO, a comprehensive Web site database of listed company information. VC INFO can be accessed at http://vcinfo.vse.ca and is available to the public on a subscription basis.

VC INFO provides extensive information on all VSE listed companies, including prospectus filings, financial statements, financings, technical reports, director affiliations/holdings and more. The database is organized into four areas of general information: Company, Security, Person and Business. It supports advanced search capabilities for the development and execution of customized queries against VSE databases. VC INFO also provides a company tracking feature whereby the system will automatically monitor developments for a subscriber specified list of companies.

VC INFO is regularly updated using information from VSE Notices, public filings, company news releases and British Columbia Securities Commission Insider filings. It is also linked to the VSE Security Master database, which accesses information on short positions, market information, market capitalization and entitlement details.

Individuals can review VC INFO using a month long no cost trial subscription. Subscribers may choose between two usage plans: Diamond Subscription at $19.95 monthly or Emerald Subscription at $5.95 weekly. To subscribe, customers pay by credit card using the VSE's E-commerce service, which operates in a secure environment.

VC INFO is an integral part of the VSE's recently redeveloped Web site and is another example of the Exchange's continuing commitment to use technology to enhance efficient access to information. The integrated Web site is among the most comprehensive source of VSE listed company information available. The VSE Web site address is http://www.vse.ca.
