Bob Rennie ("Rennie"), a Vancouver realtor, attended at the offices of the Financial Institutions Commission on June 21, 2006. Rennie advised the staff of the Superintendent that his company, Rennie Marketing Systems Ltd., was contracted to market the four development projects listed above. Rennie advised the staff of the Superintendent that a court action had been commenced in the British Columbia Supreme Court against Chandler and the Developers and/or the owners of the development property listed above ("the Lawsuit"). Rennie also advised the staff of the Superintendent that he believed deposits were taken on the purchase and sale of certain development units in the above-noted development properties which were not placed in a trust account with a lawyer or other prescribed person as required under the Act. Further, Rennie was of the

Page 9 opinion that two development units in the Tribeca development had been sold to more than one purchaser. The Superintendent first became aware of the Lawsuit on June 21,2006, the date on which the Lawsuit was filed. On June 27, 2006, the staff of the Superintendent obtained a copy of the Writ of Summons, Statement of Claim, Certificate of Pending Litigation and Notice of Motion in Action number S-064025. Named defendants in this action include: Cook and Katsura Homes Inc., the registered owner of the property being developed by Katsura; Hamlin Mews; Tribeca; and Homer Street Ventures. A review of the land title records pertaining to Hamlin Mews indicates two mortgages registered against title of the development property which had not been disclosed in the original or amended disclosure statements filed with the Superintendent: one in favour of 636455 B.C. Ltd. registered on June 28, 2005; and one in favour of Gibralt Capital Corporation registered on April 21, 2006. The land title records also indicate that there are two pending applications for builder's liens, which were also not disclosed in the filed disclosure statements. A review of the land title records pertaining to Tribeca indicates two mortgages registered against title of the development property which had not been disclosed in the original or amended disclosure statements filed with the Superintendent: one in favour of 636455 B.C. Ltd. registered on June 28,2005; and one in favour of Christopher Capital Funding Ltd. registered on December 9, 2005. The land title records also indicate that there is a pending application for a builder's lien, which was also not disclosed in the filed disclosure statements. A review of the land title records pertaining to Homer Street Ventures indicates three mortgages registered against title of the development property which had not been disclosed in the original or amended disclosure statements filed with the Superintendent: one in favour of Strand Financial I11 Corp. registered on December 12,2005; one in favour of BClMC Construction Fund Corporation registered on April 28, 2006; and one in favour of Cooper Pacific II Mortgage Investment Corporation registered on April 28, 2006. The land title records also indicate that there is a certificate of pending litigation registered against title, which was also not disclosed in the filed disclosure statements. As at the date of this Order, the Superintendent has not received a new disclosure statement or an amendment to the filed disclosure statement from any of Katsura, Hamlin Mews, Tribeca or Homer Street Ventures that clearly identifies and corrects the misrepresentation that Katsura, Hamlin Mews, Tribeca or Homer Street Ventures are not subject to outstanding litigation. The Superintendent has not received a new disclosure statement or an amendment to the filed disclosure statement from any of Hamlin Mews, Tribeca or Homer Street Ventures that discloses the mortgages, applications for builder's liens and

pending litigation which were not previously disclosed as referenced in paragraphs 22-24 above. The Lawsuit was brought by Dengin Family Limited Partnership, the principal in that partnership being George Dengin ("Dengin"). In support of the lawsuit, both Dengin and Rennie filed Affidavits, both of which contained supporting documents attached as schedules to their respective Affidavits. The Notice of Motion brought in the Lawsuit seeks to place the Developers into receivership, among other things. According to Dengin's Affidavit, he formed a partnership with Chandler to invest in real estate. The actual partnership agreement was between their respective companies, with Chandler Development Group Inc. ("Chandler Development") being the company used by Chandler. According to Rennie's Affidavit, Rennie has a contractual interest in the above-noted developments as well as an equity interest in the Hamlin Mews development. Rennie has deposed that he received financial information in the form of a spreadsheet relating to the above mentioned developments from Chandler Development's solicitors, Kornfeld, which purportedly shows an accounting of the units sold, including the names of the purchasers, the sale price and the deposits held in trust by Kornfeld. Denghhas deposed that Chandler advised him that a number of units were sold in each of the developments noted which neither he nor Rennie has an accounting for. Using the financial information supplied by Kornfeld and relying on the information supplied by Chandler as to which units have been sold, Rennie has determined that 36 development units have been sold in the Homer Street Ventures development for which Kornfeld holds no deposits in trust. Rennie has further deposed that Chandler has failed to account for five development units sold in the Hamlin Mews development, 17 development units sold in the Katsura development and nine development units sold in the Tribeca development. Dengin has deposed that he was advised by Chandler that the Hamlin Mews development and the Tribeca development will likely lose at least $3.8 million between them. Attached to Rennie's Affidavit are two purchase agreements evincin the sales of Strata Lotsvand in the Hamlin Mews development t o d Both agreements indicate that a deposit equal to the purchase price had been "paid in full" and received by the vendor. Both purchase agreements were signed by Chandler as the authorized signatory for Hamlin Mews, and both offers were accepted by Chandler on January 15,2005.

a Page 11 34. The spreadsheet attached to Rennie's Affidavit evincing the deposits held by Kornfeld indicates that the records pertaining to the Hamlin Mews development were updated as at June 13,2006. According to the aforementioned purchase agreements, deposits o f a n d f o r Strata Lotsaand respectively were received by the developer Hamlin Mews. Although the trust provisions in the purchase agreement have been crossed out, by law and in accordance with the disclosure statement filed by Hamlin Mews, any deposits received by Hamlin Mews from a purchaser must be held in a trust account with Kornfeld. The spreadsheet indicates that no deposits are being held in trust by Kornfeld for either of those units. - 35. Rennie deposed that he was advised by the lawyer for that had entered into a purchase agreement with Chandler for Strata Lots 1() and & in the Tribeca development. Rennie further deposed that Chandler had confirmed these sales. Attached to Rennie's Affidavit are copies of two purchase agreements provided by Kornfeld. One of the purchase agreements evinces the sale of Strata Lot min the Tribeca development to f o r a purchase price of- It appears that Chandler has accepted the offer as authorized signatory for Tribeca. The other purchase agreement evinces the sale of Strata Lot* in the Tribeca development t o m f o r a purchase price of It appears that Chandler has accepted the offer as authorized signatory for Tribeca. AND WHEREAS I recognize that both Dengin and Rennie have a financial stake in the above-noted developments and cannot be considered unbiased in this matter, I also recognize that both Dengin and Rennie are intimate with Chandler and the developments and as such are privy to information not available to the public. AND WHEREAS I am satisfied based on the Writ of Summons and Statement of Claim filed in Supreme Court action # S-064025 and advice from my staff that the Developers are subject to a lawsuit filed by Dengin Family Limited Partnership and that none of the Developers has filed a new or amended disclosure statement disclosing that fact. AND WHEREAS I am satisfied based on the title search documents and the disclosure statements that the development properties being developed by the Developers have been encumbered by various mortgages and builder's liens which were not disclosed in the disclosure statements filed by the Developers and that none of the Developers has filed a new or amended disclosure statement disclosing those encumbrances. AND WHEREAS the information contained in the Affidavits of Rennie and Dengin along with the materials attached thereto raises a serious concern and a likelihood that Chandler, acting on behalf of the Developers, has received deposits from purchasers in relation to development units in the Developers' developments and has not placed those deposits in trust with his lawyer as he was required to do under the Act and pursuant to his disclosure statement.

, Page 12 AND WHEREAS the information contained in the Affidavits of Rennie and Dengin along with the materials attached thereto raises a serious concern and a likelihood that Chandler, acting on behalf of the Developers, has sold one or more development units in the Developers' developments to more than one purchaser. I AM THEREFORE OF THE OPINION that CHANDLER KATSURA DEVELOPMENTS INC., HAMLIN MEWS INC., TRIBECA LOFTS YALETOWN INC., CHANDLER HOMER STREET VENTURES LTD. and MARK CHANDLER are, or have been, non-compliant with the Act. I AM FURTHER OF THE OPINION that the length of time that would be required to complete an investigation or hold a hearing, or both, would be detrimental to the public interest. The Developers are marketing development units in their developments to potential purchasers without providing accurate disclosure which the purchasers are entitled to receive and the Developers are required to provide. The fact that a lawsuit has been filed against the Developers could very well impact on the value or price of the development units and on the decision by the potential purchaser on whether to purchase the unit. IN ADDITION, there is an application in the Lawsuit to put the Developers into receivership. It would appear from information contained in Dengin's Affidavit that at least two of the developments, Tribeca's development and Hamlin Mews' development, may suffer serious financial losses. All but one of the Developers had further encumbrances placed on the property they are developing. There is a serious risk that one or more of the developments may be at risk of not completing. Even if the developments are completed, the Developers' financial difficulties are likely to negatively impact the quality of construction and the quality of the finishing of the individual development units. If this happens, this would impair the value, price and use of the development units. FURTHER, because there is the real possibility that purchasers' deposits are not being placed in trust accounts as required, any new purchasers are at risk of losing any deposit money they put down to purchase a development unit in the Developers' developments. New purchasers would also be placed at risk because there is the possibility that they would be providing monies for property that has already been sold to someone else. I CONSIDER IT in the public interest to make the following Orders pursuant to sections 30(1) (a) and (b) and 32(1) of the Act. I THEREFORE MAKE the following Orders: 1. CHANDLER KATSURA DEVELOPMENTS INC. shall cease and refrain from marketing any and all development units under the name Garden City, Residences on a Park, Phases 1 and 2, and more particularly any development
