(TSE AND AMEX: RYO) today announced that the Company has been advised by the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) that its Common Stock is being removed from the AMEX. This action became necessary because the Company no longer fully satisfies all of the guidelines of the AMEX for continued listing. The AMEX has advised the Company that the trading halt instituted on February 16, 1999 in the Company's Common Stock on the AMEX will not be lifted. The Company expects that a market for its stock will develop over-the-counter on the OTC Bulletin Board in the United States and that trading will continue on The Toronto Stock Exchange.
