Shareholders voted to appoint Petrie Raymond LLP as the
Company's auditors and authorized the Directors to fix the
remuneration of the auditor.
Shareholders voted to approve the Advance Notice By-Law. The
Advance Notice By-Law requires advance notice to the Company in
circumstances where nominations of persons for election to the
Board are made by shareholders of the Company other than pursuant
to (i) a requisition to call a shareholders meeting made pursuant
to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Quebec) (the
"QBCA"), or (ii) a shareholder proposal made pursuant to the
provisions of the QBCA.
Among other things, the Advance Notice By-Law fixes a deadline
by which holders of record of common shares of the Company must
submit director nominations to the Company prior to any annual or
special meeting of shareholders and sets forth the minimum
information that a shareholder must include in the notice to the
Company for the notice to be in proper written form.
In the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, notice to the
Company must be made not less than 30 nor more than 65 days prior
to the date of the annual meeting; provided, however, that 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 10th 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 Advance Notice By-Law provides a clear process for
shareholders to follow to nominate directors and sets out a
reasonable time frame for nominee submissions along with a
requirement for accompanying information. The purpose of the
Advance Notice By-Law is to treat all shareholders fairly by
ensuring that all shareholders, including those participating in a
meeting by proxy rather than in person, receive adequate notice of
the nominations to be considered at a meeting and can thereby
exercise their voting rights in an informed manner. In addition,
the Advance Notice By-Law should assist in facilitating an orderly
and efficient meeting process.
A copy of the Advance Notice By-Law is included in the
Management Information Circular dated May 31, 2013 and can be found
on www.sedar.com.
About Matamec
Matamec Explorations Inc. is a junior mining exploration company
whose main focus is in developing the Kipawa HREE deposit with
TRECan. Following the positive conclusion of the PEA study filed on
SEDAR in March 2012 (resources that are not mineral reserves do not
have demonstrated economic viability) and the hiring of a VP
Project Development and Construction, Matamec and TRECan decided to
move directly to the feasibility study.
In parallel, the Company is exploring more than 35km of strike
length in the Kipawa Alkalic Complex for rare
earths-yttrium-zirconium-niobium-tantalum mineralization on its
Zeus property.

located along strike and in close proximity to the Hoyle Pond Mine
in the prolific mining camp of Timmins, Ontario.
In Quebec, the Company is exploring for lithium and tantalum on
its Tansim property and for precious and base metals on its Sakami,
Valmont and Vulcain properties. As well, it is exploring for gold
