Standard & Poor's will make the following changes in the S&P/TSX Venture Composite Index after the close of trading on Thursday, September 8, 2011:
-- Allana Potash Corp. (TSXVN:AAA) will be removed from the index
as well as the S&P/TSX Venture Select Index. The company will
graduate to trade on TSX under the same ticker symbol. Allana
Potash will remain a constituent of the S&P/TSX Venture 30
