10.05.2013  |  Marketwired

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 05/10/13 -- Lake Shore Gold Corp. (TSX: LSG)(NYSE Amex: LSG)(NYSE MKT: LSG) ("Lake Shore Gold" or the "Company") today announced proposed amendments to certain matters which are to be considered and voted upon at its annual and special shareholder meeting scheduled to be held on May 15, 2013 (the "Meeting"). The management information circular of Lake Shore Gold (the "Company") dated April 15, 2013 (the "Circular") indicated that at the Meeting, shareholders would be invited to consider, and if deemed fit: (i) approve the unallocated options, rights and other entitlements issuable pursuant to the stock option plan for the Company (the "Option Plan"); and (ii) confirm a new By-Law No. 2 for the Company ("By-Law No. 2"). The Company is proposing to amend the Option Plan and By-Law No. 2 in the following manner from the descriptions thereof contained in the Circular:



(a) Lake Shore Gold proposes to amend the Option Plan attached as
Schedule "B" to the Circular in order to:

(i) incorporate a limitation which would restrict the number of stock
options issuable under the Option Plan to non-executive directors
to the lesser of (I) 1% of the outstanding issued common shares;
and (II) such number of stock options as entails a maximum
aggregate grant date value of Cdn$100,000 within any one year
period, calculated based upon the Black-Scholes option pricing
model, subject to certain specified exceptions (collectively, the
"Director Limitations");

(ii) provide that shareholder approval shall be required in order to
amend the Option Plan where any such amendments would (I) reduce
the exercise price of any existing option or result in the
cancellation and proximate re-issuance of any existing option, or
any other amendments to entitlements in relation to options held
by optionees; (II) extend the term of any stock options held by
optionees, beyond the original expiry date thereof; or (III) amend
the Director Limitations; and

(iii) reduce the aggregate number of common shares issuable pursuant to
options granted under the Option Plan from 10% to 7% of the issued
and outstanding common shares at the time of the stock option
grant; and

(b) Lake Shore Gold proposes to amend By-Law No. 2 attached as
Schedule "A" to the Circular, to provide that the board of
directors of the Company may, in its sole discretion, waive any
requirement in By-law No. 2.


Lake Shore Gold is committed to best corporate governance practices and has proposed the above amendments in accordance with such mandate. Accordingly, management and the board of directors of the Company are of the opinion that the Option Plan and By-Law No. 2 (which has been renamed as By-Law No. 3 following the above-noted amendments), as amended as described above, are each in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and accordingly, unanimously recommend that the shareholders vote for the approval and confirmation of such matters at the Meeting. Copies of the amended Option Plan and By-Law No. 3 have been filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
