MONTREAL, QUEBEC – (April 20, 2011) Clearlease.com Reports Nevado Resources Corp. (TSXV:VDO.V) announced Tuesday April 19, 2011 its intent to finalize shortly a non-brokered private placement of a maximum of 7.1 million dollars, the whole subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and regulatory authorities.

The Corporation will pay to various finders, if any, on the Closing Date, a cash fee equal to a maximum of 7% of the gross proceeds raised by said finders pursuant to the Offering.

Kobo Inc. has closed a $50-million financing to aid Indigo (TSX:IDG) – Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

TORONTO – (April 20, 2011) Clearlease.com Reports Kobo Inc. has closed a $50-million financing aimed at helping the ereading company majority owned by Indigo Books & Music Inc. (TSX:IDG) fund its international expansion.

Indigo announced Tuesday April 19, 2011 it contributed $13 million of the $50-million in financing with the balance coming from leading institutional investors as well as current Kobo investor Cheung Kong Holdings.

“This round of investment adjusts Indigo’s majority ownership to 51 per cent,” said a statement issued Monday by Indigo, Canada’s largest book and specialty retailer.

“Kobo will use the new funding to continue its explosive growth internationally,” Greg Twinney, Kobo’s chief financial officer, added in a separate release.

“As the ereading space continues to heat up, Kobo is committed to providing an innovative experience that lets consumers read any time, anyplace and share their love of reading with friends.”

Kobo kicked off its European expansion last week, with the announcement of plans to launch local content stores in Germany — the largest book market outside of the United States — as well as in Spain, starting in May.

Heather Reisman, Indigo’s founder and CEO and Kobo chair, said “we are immensely proud of the strides made by Kobo into the global market.”

“This additional investment will foster continued explosive growth for Kobo,” Reisman added.

Indigo operates in all provinces under different banners including Indigo Books & Music; Indigo Books, Gifts, Kids; IndigoSpirit, Chapters, The World’s Biggest Bookstore and Coles.

Indigo shares were up 18 cents at $12.72 Tuesday afternoon on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

NEW YORK, N.Y. – (April 20, 2011) Clearlease.com Reports Apple Inc. (NasdaqGS: AAPL ) is facing a lawsuit from a Pennsylvania man whose 9-year-old daughter racked up $200 buying “Zombie Toxin” and other game items on an iPod.

The lawsuit filed Tuesday April 19, 2011 seeks class-action status, saying Garen Meguerian of Phoenixville is among many people with bill shock after children went on buying sprees in iPhone, iPad and iPod games.

An AP story in December highlighted the issue. In many cases, it appeared that children bought the items without knowing they were spending real money. ITunes didn’t ask for a password for in-game purchases for 15 minutes after it had been entered for any reason.

Apple tightened its password policy with a software update in March. It had no comment on the federal lawsuit filed last week in San Francisco, which CNET reported on earlier.

Canpotex Ltd., will build a $55 million maintenance yard in Saskatchewan, – Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease BHP Billiton (NYSE:BHP), Agrium Inc. (TSX:AGU), Mosaic Company (NYSE:MOS), and Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. (TSX:POT)

Canpotex Ltd. will build a $55 million maintenance yard in Saskatchewan – Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease BHP Billiton (NYSE:BHP), Agrium Inc. (TSX:AGU), Mosaic Company (NYSE:MOS) and Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. (TSX:POT)

SASKATOON – (April 20, 2011) Clearlease.com Reports Canpotex Ltd. will build a $55 million maintenance yard in Saskatchewan to clean and service thousands of rail cars used to carry potash to the West Coast for export.

The Saskatoon potash exporter said Tuesday the new yard will create 40 jobs during construction and 20 jobs once it’s operating by the fall of 2012.

The new railyard will provide all-weather inspection and light repair, automated railcar wash and wheel maintenance services for Canpotex’s fleet of 5,000 railcars, the company said.

“The movement of our potash from Saskatchewan to our export terminals on the West Coast, covering a distance of over 1,600 kilometres through rugged terrain and severe climate changes, is the lifeline of our logistics,” chief executive Steve Dechka said in a news release.

“This new facility will provide greater control over railcar maintenance, thereby enhancing the performance of our railcar fleet. It will also improve the efficiency of the overall rail corridor, benefiting shippers, railways and port jurisdictions throughout Western Canada.”

Construction is expected to start in May near Lanigan, Sask.

Canpotex is the offshore marketing company owned by the three Saskatchewan potash producers: Agrium Inc. (TSX:AGU), Mosaic Canada Crop Nutrition LP, a subsidiary of U.S.-based The Mosaic Company (NYSE:MOS), and Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. (TSX:POT), the world’s largest fertilizer producer.

Last year, the federal and Saskatchewan governments cited the pivotal role potash plays in the regional economy as a reason they opposed the nearly US$40 billion takeover of PotashCorp. by BHP Billiton (NYSE:BHP), the world’s largest mining company.

In a release Tuesday, Saskatchewan called the new railcar maintenance and staging yard more evidence of a strong and growing potash industry in the prairie province.

“This is great news for the Lanigan area and for all of Saskatchewan,” Energy and Resources Minister Bill Boyd said in a release.

“Canpotex is recognized as the world leader in potash marketing, logistics and distribution. This new project is an important step in maintaining and enhancing Canpotex’s position.”

Boyd said the ongoing expansion of the Saskatchewan potash industry through new investments and now a new railcar maintenance and staging centre is clear evidence the government’s potash policies are working and the industry is growing.

Potash is a main ingredient of fertilizer and is used around the world to boost crop production.

Demand for Canadian-mined potash has grown rapidly, especially from China and other parts of Asia.

Stocks moved higher at the start of trading on Tuesday, regaining some ground after falling sharply - Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

Stocks moved higher at the start of trading on Tuesday, regaining some ground after falling sharply – Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

Stocks moved higher at the start of trading on Tuesday, regaining some ground after falling sharply – Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER – (April 19, 2011) Clearlease.com Reports Stocks moved higher at the start of trading on Tuesday, regaining some ground after falling sharply in the previous session. The major averages have all moved to the upside after ending Monday’s trading firmly in negative territory following pessimistic comments from Standard & Poor’s.

The rebound on Wall Street is partly due to the release of relatively upbeat housing data, with a report from the Commerce Department showing a substantial rebound in U.S. housing starts in March.

The report said housing starts rose by 7.2 percent to an annual rate of 549,000 in March after falling by 18.5 percent to a revised 512,000 in February. Economists had expected housing starts to rise to 525,000 from the 479,000 originally reported for the previous month.

Additionally, the Commerce Department said building permits, an indicator of future housing demand, increased by 11.2 percent to an annual rate of 594,000 in March from a revised 534,000 in February.

On the corporate news front, Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is moving notably higher after reporting first quarter earnings of $1.35 per share on sales of $16.2 billion. Analysts had expected the healthcare products company to earn $1.26 per share on sales of $15.8 billion.

Looking ahead, Johnson & Johnson raised its full year earnings guidance to $4.90 to $5 per share, above analyst estimates for earnings of $4.83 per share.

Meanwhile, shares of Goldman Sachs (GS) are trading modestly lower after the financial services giant reported first quarter earnings that fell sharply year-over-year. The decrease largely reflected the redemption of its preferred stock held by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway (BRKa).

Steel stocks have moved sharply higher in early trading, driving the NYSE Arca Steel Index up by 1.7 percent after it ended Monday’s trading at a one-month closing low. Airline, health insurance, and housing stocks are also seeing early strength.

The major averages have seen some further upside in the past few minutes, rising to new highs for the young session. The Dow is up 41.40 points or 0.3 percent at 12,242.99, the Nasdaq is up 9.63 points or 0.4 percent at 2,745.01 and the S&P 500 is up 4.37 points or 0.3 percent at 1,309.51.

Stocks moved higher at the start of trading on Tuesday, regaining some ground after falling sharply - Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER – (April 19, 2011) Clearlease.com Reports Stocks moved higher at the start of trading on Tuesday, regaining some ground after falling sharply in the previous session. The major averages have all moved to the upside after ending Monday’s trading firmly in negative territory following pessimistic comments from Standard & Poor’s.

The rebound on Wall Street is partly due to the release of relatively upbeat housing data, with a report from the Commerce Department showing a substantial rebound in U.S. housing starts in March.

The report said housing starts rose by 7.2 percent to an annual rate of 549,000 in March after falling by 18.5 percent to a revised 512,000 in February. Economists had expected housing starts to rise to 525,000 from the 479,000 originally reported for the previous month.

Additionally, the Commerce Department said building permits, an indicator of future housing demand, increased by 11.2 percent to an annual rate of 594,000 in March from a revised 534,000 in February.

On the corporate news front, Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is moving notably higher after reporting first quarter earnings of $1.35 per share on sales of $16.2 billion. Analysts had expected the healthcare products company to earn $1.26 per share on sales of $15.8 billion.

Looking ahead, Johnson & Johnson raised its full year earnings guidance to $4.90 to $5 per share, above analyst estimates for earnings of $4.83 per share.

Meanwhile, shares of Goldman Sachs (GS) are trading modestly lower after the financial services giant reported first quarter earnings that fell sharply year-over-year. The decrease largely reflected the redemption of its preferred stock held by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway (BRKa).

Steel stocks have moved sharply higher in early trading, driving the NYSE Arca Steel Index up by 1.7 percent after it ended Monday’s trading at a one-month closing low. Airline, health insurance, and housing stocks are also seeing early strength.

Consumer Price Index jumped by .5% in March - Stocks to Watch: Google's (GOOG) - Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

Consumer Price Index jumped by .5% in March – Stocks to Watch: Google’s (GOOG) – Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

Consumer Price Index jumped by .5% in March – Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 18, 2011) Clearlease.com Reports The Consumer Price Index jumped by .5% in March raising concerns that a Fed hike in interest rates may not be far off in the future. Look for the Housing Market Index on Monday to gauge demand for housing and potential economic momentum. The Housing Starts release on Tuesday, Existing Home Sales on Wednesday, and the FHFA House Price Index on Thursday will give further insight. Markets will be closed on Friday in observance of Good Friday ahead of the Easter holiday weekend.

Stocks to Watch: Google’s (GOOG) disappointing earnings report on Friday pushed the stock down over 8%* to levels not seen since last October on a five fold increase in volume. Bank of America (BAC) earnings fell below levels seen a year ago and ten cents below estimates as revenues declined over 16% from last year. Bond Insurers surged as Assured Guarantee (AGO) will received a settlement from Bank of America for certain mortgage backed securities. Merck (MRK) climbed 1.9%* and doubled its volume as it reached an agreement with Johnson and Johnson (JNJ) on distribution rights for two arthritis drugs.

Special Note: The price action on the Dow Industrials over the past five days shows a net decline of 38.22 points yet four of the past five trading days closed higher. Also, the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) is now at levels not seen since July of 2007 even though the S&P 500 is still below both its April 8 high (1339) and its February 18 high (1344). Although the price level of the VIX can work lower, the level of complacency among investors or lack of fear of a major decline as measured by this index appears to be at a multi-year extreme.
*Percentages are calculated based on closing prices on 4/14/11 and 4/15/11

Capstone (TSX:CS) offering C$725 million cash and shares to acquire Far West - Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

Capstone (TSX:CS) offering C$725 million cash and shares to acquire Far West – Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

Capstone (TSX:CS) offering C$725 million cash and shares to acquire Far West – Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 18, 2011) Clearlease.com Reports Capstone Mining Corp. (TSX:CS) says the $1.1-billion three-way deal between itself, Far West Mining Ltd. and a big South Korean company will help the junior miner grow by advancing a major metals project in Chile.

“This is a transformational development for Capstone,” the company’s president and chief executive, Darren Pylot, said in a Monday conference call a day after announcing the deal.

In the agreement, Korea Resources Corp. would become Capstone’s largest shareholder and a 30 per cent partner in the Santo Domingo copper and iron project once Capstone acquires Far West, owner of the Chilean deposit.

Capstone (TSX:CS) is offering C$725 million in cash and shares to acquire Far West. The offer values Far West at C$9.19 per share — about 20 per cent above Far West’s value prior to the takeover announcement.

Far West shares gained 44 cents to $8.12 in mid-afternoon trading Monday while Capstone was down 23 cents to $3.98 at the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Pylot said that by acquiring the Santo Domingo project, Capstone will be on track to become a low-cost, mid-tier copper producer focused on the Americas.

Copper has a wide variety of industrial uses and that’s in great demand when the global economy is healthy although, as with other base metals, prices tend to fluctuate with the ups and downs of the manufacturing and construction industries.

One of the advantages of the Santo Domingo project is the presence of iron, which will be sold and help fund the cost of copper production.

Santo Domingo is also relatively close to a deep-water port that will ease transportation of the mine’s output to Asia, a large and growing market.

Through the deal with Korea Resources — a major producer of iron, copper, zinc, nickel and coal also known as Kores — the Canadian mining companies would get both a reliable source of funding and a guaranteed, long-term customer for half of the mine’s copper and iron output.

“This marks the start of a very important relationship between Capstone and Kores, who share similar objectives — including the need to provide further growth in copper production,” Pylot said.

Assuming the takeover deal is completed, Korea Resources would buy 11 per cent of Capstone’s shares for C$170 million and get one seat on its board of directors.

Kores will also pay $210 million cash to Capstone to acquire 30 per cent of the Santo Domingo project and provide 30 per cent of the funds required to get it into production.

It will also help Capstone arrange for funding to cover about 65 per cent of the costs, up to production.

The companies haven’t provided a formal estimate of the project’s cost to build, but executives told one analyst on Monday that his estimate range of $1 billion to $1.5 billion was a fair. They told another analyst that $2 billion was too high.

In return for its financial support and investments, the South Korean company will get to buy 50 per cent of the copper and iron concentrate produced by Santo Domingo at market rates over the life of the mine.

Kores has a similar arrangement with Sherritt International Inc. (TSX:S), a Toronto-based nickel and coal miner.

In return for funding part of Sherritt’s Ambatovy nickel-cobalt project in Madagascar, off the southeastern tip of Africa, the Korean company will have a 27.5 per cent stake in the project and rights to buy some of its output.

Far West’s directors, senior management and certain shareholders, including Quadra FNX Mining Ltd. of Vancouver (TSX:QUX), are supporting the Capstone offer.

The combined Capstone-Far West will have full funding to grow copper production by 200 per cent over the years 2011 to 2016 and increase measured and indicated resources by 125 per cent, Pylot said.

“We believe our shareholders will be very happy with this acquisition, as it satisfies a number of key initiatives,” Pylot said.

For the Far West takeover to be completed, the deal will require approval by at least two-thirds of votes cast at its shareholders meeting and a simple majority of more than 50 per cent votes cast by Capstone shareholders.

Far West president and CEO Rick Zimmer, who is an engineer by training, said on the call that the deal with Capstone will provide expertise, investment in a larger company with a more liquid stock and stable funding for growth.

“I think it’s a great deal for all three of the companies,” Zimmer said.

Zimmer acknowledged, however, that some shareholders may want a higher price for their Far West shares but said the deal is fair to Far West shareholders because of the short-term premium to the pre-offer price and potential for longer-term appreciation through shares of Capstone.

“Yes there are some people who want $15 and $20 and $30 for their stock but, on the whole, I can tell you reaction has been overwhelmingly positive.”

The companies plan to have their shareholder votes in June.

Capstone (TSX:CS) offering C$725 million cash and shares to acquire Far West - Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 18, 2011) Clearlease.com Reports Capstone Mining Corp. (TSX:CS) says the $1.1-billion three-way deal between itself, Far West Mining Ltd. and a big South Korean company will help the junior miner grow by advancing a major metals project in Chile.

“This is a transformational development for Capstone,” the company’s president and chief executive, Darren Pylot, said in a Monday conference call a day after announcing the deal.

In the agreement, Korea Resources Corp. would become Capstone’s largest shareholder and a 30 per cent partner in the Santo Domingo copper and iron project once Capstone acquires Far West, owner of the Chilean deposit.

Capstone (TSX:CS) is offering C$725 million in cash and shares to acquire Far West. The offer values Far West at C$9.19 per share — about 20 per cent above Far West’s value prior to the takeover announcement.

Far West shares gained 44 cents to $8.12 in mid-afternoon trading Monday while Capstone was down 23 cents to $3.98 at the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Pylot said that by acquiring the Santo Domingo project, Capstone will be on track to become a low-cost, mid-tier copper producer focused on the Americas.

Copper has a wide variety of industrial uses and that’s in great demand when the global economy is healthy although, as with other base metals, prices tend to fluctuate with the ups and downs of the manufacturing and construction industries.

One of the advantages of the Santo Domingo project is the presence of iron, which will be sold and help fund the cost of copper production.

Santo Domingo is also relatively close to a deep-water port that will ease transportation of the mine’s output to Asia, a large and growing market.

Through the deal with Korea Resources — a major producer of iron, copper, zinc, nickel and coal also known as Kores — the Canadian mining companies would get both a reliable source of funding and a guaranteed, long-term customer for half of the mine’s copper and iron output.

“This marks the start of a very important relationship between Capstone and Kores, who share similar objectives — including the need to provide further growth in copper production,” Pylot said.

Assuming the takeover deal is completed, Korea Resources would buy 11 per cent of Capstone’s shares for C$170 million and get one seat on its board of directors.

Kores will also pay $210 million cash to Capstone to acquire 30 per cent of the Santo Domingo project and provide 30 per cent of the funds required to get it into production.

It will also help Capstone arrange for funding to cover about 65 per cent of the costs, up to production.

The companies haven’t provided a formal estimate of the project’s cost to build, but executives told one analyst on Monday that his estimate range of $1 billion to $1.5 billion was a fair. They told another analyst that $2 billion was too high.

In return for its financial support and investments, the South Korean company will get to buy 50 per cent of the copper and iron concentrate produced by Santo Domingo at market rates over the life of the mine.

Kores has a similar arrangement with Sherritt International Inc. (TSX:S), a Toronto-based nickel and coal miner.

In return for funding part of Sherritt’s Ambatovy nickel-cobalt project in Madagascar, off the southeastern tip of Africa, the Korean company will have a 27.5 per cent stake in the project and rights to buy some of its output.

Far West’s directors, senior management and certain shareholders, including Quadra FNX Mining Ltd. of Vancouver (TSX:QUX), are supporting the Capstone offer.
