VANCOUVER, April 30, 2014 /CNW/ - CWAL Investments Ltd. ("CWAL"), a
private company owned by Harlow Burrows, Gordon Christoff and Randy

4:00 pm (Toronto time) on May 14, 2014. As of today's date,
approximately 2,691,000 Common Shares had been validly tendered to the

As previously disclosed, Coast and CWAL have agreed that upon the
minimum tender condition of the Offer being satisfied, Coast will
conditionally waive the application of its shareholder rights plan to
permit CWAL to take up such Common Shares tendered. Based on the
number of Common Shares tendered as of today's date, approximately
342,000 additional Common Shares must be tendered and not withdrawn to
satisfy the minimum tender condition and permit CWAL to take up all

out in a notice of variation to be mailed to Coast's shareholders and
filed with securities regulatory authorities within the next few days.

many Coast shareholders have tendered to the Offer, and with a number
of Common Shares that represents almost 90% of the number necessary to
meet the minimum tender condition. We encourage all remaining
