Pinetree Capital Ltd. (TSX:PNP) announces that its board of directors has
approved a new by-law which replaces the company's previous by-laws. The new
by-law is intended to modernize certain of the company's practices and
procedures, in light of amendments to the Business Corporations Act (Ontario)
("OBCA") and the evolution of governance practices since the early 1990's when
the previous by-laws were made.


The new by-law includes the addition of advance notice provisions for
nominations of directors by shareholders in circumstances other than pursuant to
a requisition of a meeting or a shareholder proposal made pursuant to the
provisions of the OBCA. 


Among other things, the advance notice provisions fix a deadline by which
shareholders must submit director nominations to Pinetree prior to an annual or
special meeting of shareholders and set out the information that a shareholder
must include in the notice to the company. 


In the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, notice to the company must be
provided not less than 30 days and not more than 65 days prior to the date of
the annual meeting; provided that if the annual meeting is called for a date
that is less than 50 days after the date on which the first public announcement
of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice may be made not later than
the close of business on the 10th day following the public announcement. 


In the case of a special meeting of shareholders (which is not also an annual
meeting but has been called for the purpose of electing directors, among other
purposes, if applicable), notice to the company must be provided no later than
the close of business on the 15th day following the day on which the first
public announcement of the date of the special meeting was made. 


The advance notice provisions are intended to provide a clear process for
shareholders to follow for director nominations and set out a reasonable time
frame for the submissions of nominees and the accompanying information. The
provisions will help to ensure that all shareholders receive adequate notice of
the nominations to be considered at a meeting and can thereby exercise their
voting rights in an informed manner. The provisions are similar to the advance
notice by-laws adopted by many other Canadian public companies. 


The new by-law is effective immediately but is subject to confirmation by our
shareholders at the annual and special shareholder meeting to be held on June 5,
2014. The full text of the new by-law is available under Pinetree's profile at
www.sedar.com.
