The Filer, Natunola AgriTech Inc., applied for a decision that it is no longer a reporting issuer following its amalgamation with a private entity.

The Filer's outstanding securities are beneficially owned by fewer than 15 securityholders in each Canadian jurisdiction and fewer than 51 worldwide.

The Filer is not traded on any marketplace and has no intention to seek public financing.

The Ontario Securities Commission, as principal regulator, granted the requested exemptive relief.

The applicant sought exemptive relief from the prospectus requirement and waiting period communication restrictions under the Securities Act in connection with the use of road show materials during a U.S. cross-border offering.

The applicant argued that if National Instrument 41-101 applied, it would meet the exemption requirements for marketing materials, but NI 71-101 states NI 41-101 does not apply to MJDS offerings.

The principal regulator granted the requested relief.

The Filers, Geron Corporation and Asterias Biotherapeutics, Inc., applied for an exemption from the prospectus requirements under the Securities Act to permit the distribution of shares and warrants by way of a pro rata dividend in specie to Canadian shareholders.

The Filers are U.S. public companies with a de minimis number of Canadian shareholders and are not reporting issuers in Canada.

The Ontario Securities Commission granted the requested exemptive relief, noting that no investment decision was required from the Canadian shareholders to receive the distributions.

The Applicants, who are dealers participating in private placements of foreign securities to permitted clients in Canada, applied for exemptive relief from certain disclosure requirements under National Instrument 33-105 and OSC Rule 45-501.

The Ontario Securities Commission granted the relief, allowing the Applicants to provide U.S. registered offering disclosure regarding underwriter conflicts of interest instead of the Canadian-specific connected and related issuer disclosure, and exempting them from including a description of statutory rights of action in the offering memorandum, subject to certain conditions including providing a notice to purchasers.

The applicants, registered dealers, applied for exemptive relief from certain disclosure requirements under National Instrument 33-105 and OSC Rule 45-501 when offering foreign securities to permitted clients in Canada on a private placement basis.

The requested relief included exemptions from providing Canadian-specific disclosure on conflicts of interest, connected issuer relationships, and statutory rights of action in the foreign offering document.

The Ontario Securities Commission granted the relief, subject to conditions including that the offering document complies with U.S. registered offering disclosure requirements for conflicts of interest and that purchasers provide written consent.

The Filer, Cee Gee Financial Services Trust, applied to the Ontario Securities Commission for an exemption from the prospectus and registration requirements under the Securities Act.

The Filer sought to distribute non-transferable promissory notes to specified qualified persons, primarily partners and related entities of Ernst & Young LLP, to fund the firm and its affiliates.

The Commission granted the exemptive relief, subject to conditions restricting the transferability of the notes and requiring the provision of financial information to investors.

The Filer, an investment dealer and member of IIROC, applied for exemptive relief from the prospectus requirement under the Securities Act in connection with the distribution of contracts for difference and over-the-counter foreign exchange contracts to investors.

The Filer proposed to distribute these products on the basis of a clear and plain language risk disclosure document rather than a prospectus.

The Ontario Securities Commission granted the requested relief, subject to terms and conditions, including compliance with IIROC rules and a four-year sunset clause.

The applicant filed an application under section 140(2) of the Securities Act for a decision that certain documents filed on SEDAR, including a material change report and material contracts, be held in confidence.

The documents contained commercially sensitive operational and financial information regarding a solar power project transaction.

The applicant subsequently filed redacted versions of the documents.

The Ontario Securities Commission granted the requested relief, finding that the desirability of avoiding disclosure of the confidential information outweighed the principle of public availability, and that the redacted information was not material to investors.

Vault Minerals Inc. applied for an order under the Securities Act that it is no longer a reporting issuer in Ontario, British Columbia, and Alberta.

Following an amalgamation, the Filer became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Queenston Mining Inc., and its common shares were delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Ontario Securities Commission, acting as principal regulator, granted the requested exemptive relief, noting that the Filer has no intention to seek public financing and its securities are not traded on any marketplace.
