Ontario Court of Justice Rules for Kyrgyz Republic in Share Ownership Case

Ontario Court of Justice Rules for Kyrgyz Republic in Share Ownership Case


Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Stans Energy Corp. ("Stans" or the "Company") announces that the Ontario Superior Court of Justice has ruled that Centerra Gold (TSX: CG) shares (the “Shares”) are the property of Kyrgyzaltyn JSC (“Kyrgyzaltyn”) not the Kyrgyz Republic.

At issue was whether the Kyrgyz Republic (the “Republic”) is in fact the beneficial owner of the Shares through Kyrgyzaltyn, the mining company 100% owned by the Republic.  The shares are currently being pursued as security in multiple cases of damages awarded by various International Arbitration Tribunals against the Republic.

In the matter of Belokon et. al v. the Kyrgyz Republic, of which Stans was a joint applicant, Justice Conway ruled that, among other things, “the Republic does not have ‘any equitable or other right, property, interest or equity of redemption’ in the Centerra shares that is subject to seizure and sale…..”

An appeal of this decision is under consideration.

“As the case continues to evolve, Stans remains committed to pursuing full resolution of both the awards of the Moscow Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the upcoming UNCITRAL arbitration,” states Rodney Irwin, Interim President and CEO. 

About Stans Energy

Stans Energy Corp. is a resource development company focused on advancing rare earth and specialty metals properties focusing on areas of Central Asia and Russia. Stans acquired, among other things, the right to mine the past producing rare earth mine, Kutessay II, in the Kyrgyz Republic in 2009 and the right to mine Beryllium at Kalesay.  Steps subsequently taken by the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic wrongfully to deprive the Company of those mining rights have required Stans to take the actions described above to protect the Company’s rights and recover damages caused by the Republic’s wrongful actions.

We seek safe harbour.
