Standard & Poor's Canadian Index Operations announces the following index changes:

• On July 13, 2011, OPTI Canada Inc. (TSX:OPC) was halted on TSX prior to the open. The company subsequently announced that it is pursuing a restructuring under CCAA. If the stock does not trade during the day on Thursday, July 14, 2011, on TSX, OPTI Canada will be removed from the S&P/TSX SmallCap and Equity SmallCap Indices at a price of zero effective after the close of Thursday, July 14, 2011.
