Settlement Approved with Wayne Berry, EnCharge Inc. and EnCharge Canada Corp.


The Nova Scotia Securities Commission has approved a settlement agreement with Wayne Berry, EnCharge Inc. and EnChargeCanada Corp.

The commission approved the settlement agreement and ordered the three to:
— comply with Nova Scotia securities laws
— be reprimanded
— pay an administrative penalty of $40,000
— pay costs for the commission proceedings of $3,500.

In addition Mr. Berry is to:
— cease trading in securities for five years
— be denied the use of exemptions contained in Nova Scotia securities law for five years
— be prohibited from becoming or acting as a director or officer of any issuer, registrant or investment fund manager for three years
— be prohibited from becoming or acting as a registrant, investment manager or promoter for five years.

EnCharge and EnChargeCanada are denied the use of exemptions contained in Nova Scotia securities law for 10 years.
