ENSIS Growth Fund News

ENSIS Growth Fund has been advised that the Fund's manager, ENSIS Management Inc., will be acquired by GrowthWorks Manitoba Ltd effective in November 2007.  Jeffrey & Jamie feel that this is a positive development for a number of reasons including the network of investors with which GrowthWorks has developed significant relationships.  This network represents potential
co-investors and potential purchasers of exisiting investee companies. In addition, the greater size of GrowthWorks is likely to lead to cost savings that will translate into a lower MER.
