Item 8.01. Other Events

On October 22, 2004, Vie Financial Group, Inc. ("the Company") and Ashton Technology Canada, Inc. ("Ashton Canada"), a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company, reached a settlement agreement in the arbitration proceedings with the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX"). The Company and Ashton Canada have agreed to settle the claim filed against the TSX in exchange for a mutual release and proceeds of $2.65 million (US Dollars) plus legal fees of $230,000 Canadian Dollars, or the equivalent of approximately $185,000 US Dollars.

Ashton Canada filed the arbitration claim against TSX on June 11, 2003 for breach of contract under the June 7, 2000 integration agreement between Ashton Canada and TSX to introduce the Company's eVWAP trading system. The arbitration claim stated that Ashton Canada designed, developed and was prepared to deploy eVWAP as a facility of the primary Canadian exchange when TSX circumvented the deployment of eVWAP without proper excuse. On August 22, 2003, TSX filed a counterclaim against Ashton Canada seeking specific performance of the integration agreement, or in the alternative, a declaration that it was entitled to terminate the agreement without penalty. The arbitration case began in May 2004, and was divided into two phases: a liability phase and a damages phase.

On September 20, 2004, the arbitrator issued its decision in the liability phase of the arbitration proceedings, ruling that TSX breached the integration agreement; that Ashton Canada is entitled to recover such damages as it may have sustained as a result of TSX's breach of the agreement; and that TSX's counterclaim must be dismissed. The arbitrator ordered that TSX shall pay forthwith on a partial indemnity basis all reasonable costs and expenses, including legal fees and disbursements incurred by Ashton Canada in respect of the liability phase of the arbitration proceedings. The arbitrator also ruled that if the parties were unable to resolve the issue of damages, the arbitration would be reconvened to assess damages. The Company received payment of the proceeds on October 22, 2004.
