Stans Energy Appeals Moscow City Arbitrazh Ruling

Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Stans Energy Corp. (TSX-V: HRE, OTCQX: HREEF)(‘Stans’ or ‘The Company’) announces that it has filed an appeal to the ruling of the Moscow City Arbitrazh Court (the “Court”). The Court's decision was made from the bench on April 29, 2015, which was followed by written reasons on May 25, 2015.  The Court set aside the Company’s US$118 million award from the Moscow Chamber of Commerce and Industry (the “MCCI”).  The decision of the Court will not come into effect until the Company's appeal is heard. 

As reported on May 15, 2015, the Court set aside the award of the MCCI on procedural grounds, not on the merits of the case.  The Company continues to seek enforcement of the MCCI award before the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. The Company's application to enforce the MCCI award is scheduled for July 21, 2015.

The appeal of the Court is asking to set aside the Court's ruling on the following grounds:

1. A violation and incorrect application of the norms of substantive law (paragraphs 1 and 2 Article 288 of the Arbitration Procedural Code of the Russian Federation)
2. A violation and incorrect application of the norms of procedural law, as it has caused the adoption of an incorrect decision of the Moscow City Arbitrazh Court (paragraphs 1 and 3 Article 288 of the Arbitration Procedural Code of the Russian Federation)
3. The lack of correspondence between the conclusions of the court, contained in the May 25^th, 2015 Decision, and the actual circumstances of the case established by the arbitration court and the proof contained in the case (paragraphs 1 Article 288 of the Arbitration Procedural Code of the Russian Federation)

No date has yet been set for the appeal hearing.
