Sherritt Comments on Clarke Inc.'s Latest Press Release

29.04.2014  |  Marketwired
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired - April 28, 2014) - Sherritt International Corporation ("Sherritt" or "the Corporation") (TSX:S) commented on dissident shareholder Clarke Inc.'s disclosure that it sent a letter to the Ontario Securities Commission (the "OSC") today regarding the Corporation's Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders.

Clarke Inc.'s letter to the OSC is wholly without merit and is a transparent attempt to somehow revive a sputtering dissident campaign by unfairly and inappropriately trying to cast a negative light on the Corporation. Sherritt has acted appropriately and in strict compliance with all legal requirements at all times and it will continue to do so.

The Corporation has received support from leading independent proxy advisory firms Institutional Shareholder Services and Glass, Lewis & Co. They both carefully reviewed all public disclosure and made recommendations to vote FOR Sherritt's director nominees on the BLUE proxy on the basis of what is in the best interests of all shareholders. Both proxy advisors also recommended that shareholders withhold from voting with respect to all of Clarke's nominees.

Sherritt notes that the dissident sent its letter to the OSC almost a month after Sherritt distributed its circular and after the independent proxy advisors' recommendations supporting Sherritt. The late timing suggests this letter is a last-ditch attempt by the dissident to distract shareholders from the real issues just prior to the voting deadline.

This is yet another example of erratic behaviour by Clarke Inc. and dissident nominee George Armoyan and provides a further glimpse into what shareholders should expect if Mr. Armoyan or his two associates are elected to Sherritt's Board of Directors.
