Halifax NS, May 16, 2008 — In the spirit of visionary leadership, the Trade Centre Limited team invites you to join us in applauding two of Atlantic Business Magazine’s Top 50 CEO award recipients: Carole-Ann Miller, TCL board member and President of Maple Trade Finance Inc., and our very own TCL President and CEO, Frederick MacGillivray.

Ms. Miller was selected because of her vision to transform Maple Trade Finance into the number one alternative financial services company in Canada. Her company provides products and services that provide cash flow to enable companies to begin exporting or expand existing markets.

Mr. MacGillivray was chosen for “being an important community-building catalyst throughout his career,” and for his ability to make the TCL facilities the venues of choice for world-class sporting events and entertainment performers. Visits by renowned personalities such as former U.S. President Bill Clinton and the Dixie Chicks and World-class sporting events such as the 2008 IIHF World Hockey Championship are just a few of the events TCL has recently hosted.

The Atlantic Business Magazine team said it best in their May/June 2008 Issue:

"They (the Top 50 CEOs) consistently question the status quo. They rarely follow convention. And they are always searching for more effective ways of getting the job done. They may wear conservative suits and talk boardroom talk, but these Top 50 CEOs are maverick thinkers all the same."
