Warning
REGARDING GLOBAL 8 ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES INC.
Montréal, August 14, 2009 – The Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) is urging Québec investors
to be cautious about Global 8 Environmental Technologies Inc. The warning is further to the interim
cease trade order issued by the Alberta Securities Commission (ASC) and by the British Columbia
Securities Commission (BCSC) against Global 8 Environmental Technologies Inc.
According to the ASC, Global 8 Environmental Technologies Inc. is a corporation based in the State of
Nevada, U.S.A. that works with partners and consultants to provide solutions for the health and
recovery of the environment through the development and operation of world class Environmental
Technology Centers. From May 2003 to June 2009, Global is alleged to have raised some $19.5
million through the illegal trading and distribution of securities to more than 950 Alberta investors and
have done so without being registered with the ASC and without filing a prospectus. According to
information from the BCSC, Global 8 Environmental Technologies Inc. is also alleged to have
conducted illegal distributions to some 120 B.C. investors in the amount of $12.5 million.
At this point, it is not known whether Québec investors were contacted by Global. However, investors
should be cautious and note that Global has not filed a prospectus with the AMF.
"Investors should always check with the AMF Information Centre to determine whether firms and
individuals offering investments or brokerage services have the necessary approvals from the AMF,"
said Anne-Marie Poitras, Superintendent, AMF Client Services and Compensation. "Investors who
hand over their investments to firms that do not hold the required permits often lose their money, and
the recourses available to them are usually limited," she added.
