This press release contains forward-looking statements. More particularly, the
press release contains forward-looking statements related to the anticipated
closing of the Offering and the use of proceeds therefrom. The forward-looking
statements contained in this document are based upon certain key expectations
and assumptions made by Messina, including: expectations and assumptions
concerting receipt of required regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of
other conditions to the completion of and use of proceeds from the Offering.
Although Messina believes that the expectations and assumptions on which the
forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not
be placed on the forward-looking statements because Messina can give no
assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since forward-looking statements
address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent
risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those
currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. These include, but
are not limited to, the failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals or
satisfy the conditions to closing the Offering.


Additional information on these and other factors that could affect Messina's
operations and financial results are included in reports, including Messina's
quarterly and annual reports on file with Canadian securities regulatory
authorities and may be accessed through the SEDAR website (www.sedar.com). The
forward-looking statements contained in this document are made as of the date
hereof and Messina undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any
forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable
securities laws.


This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of
an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in
any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
