TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 05/06/13 -- Seafield Resources Ltd. ("Seafield" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: SFF) is pleased to announce that the board of directors of the Company has approved and adopted an Advance Notice By-law (the "By-law"). The By-law sets a deadline by which holders of record of common shares of the Company must submit a notice of director nominations to the Company prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders and sets forth the information that a shareholder must include in the notice to the Company for it to be valid.

Specifically, the By-law includes a provision that requires advance notice be given to the Company in circumstances where nominations of persons for election to the board of directors are made by shareholders of the Company other than pursuant to: (i) a requisition of a meeting made pursuant to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the "Act"); or (ii) a shareholder proposal made pursuant to the provisions of the Act.

In the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, notice to the Company must be made not less than 30 days and not more than 65 days prior to the date of the annual meeting. However, in the event that the annual meeting is to be held on 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 tenth day following such public announcement.

In the case of a special meeting of shareholders (which is not also an annual meeting) notice to the Company must be made not 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 By-law is effective immediately. At the Company's upcoming annual general and special meeting of shareholders to be held on June 25, 2013, shareholders will be asked to confirm and ratify the By-law.

The full text of the By-law is available under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
