Ceres Global Ag Corp. : Announces Adoption of Advance Notice By-Law and Annual and Special Meeting

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Ceres Global Ag Corp. Announces Adoption of Advance Notice By-Law and Annual and Special Meeting

TORONTO, ONTARIO, July 29, 2013 - Ceres Global Ag Corp. ("Ceres" or the "Company") announced today that it will be holding an annual and special meeting of shareholders on September 27, 2013. Shareholders of record at the close of business on August 23, 2013 will be entitled to vote at the annual and special meeting in person or by proxy.
The Company also announced today that its board of directors (the "Board of Directors") has adopted amendments to the Company's By-Laws (the "Amended and Restated By-Law"), including introducing a provision that requires advance notice be given to the Company in connection with shareholders intending to nominate directors for election to the Board of Directors (the "Advance Notice Provision").
In particular, the Advance Notice Provision sets forth a procedure requiring advance notice to the Company by any shareholder who intends to nominate any person for election as director 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 "OBCA"), or (ii) a shareholder proposal made pursuant to the provisions of the OBCA. Among other things, the Advance Notice Provision fixes a deadline by which shareholders must submit a notice of director nominations to the Company prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders where directors are to be elected and sets forth the information that a shareholder must include in the notice for it to be valid.
The Board of Directors believes that the Advance Notice Provision ensures an orderly nomination process and that all shareholders of Ceres are properly and adequately informed in advance of an election of directors. The Advance Notice Provision adopted by the Board of Directors provides a reasonable time frame for shareholders to notify the Company of their intention to nominate directors and requires the disclosure of information concerning the proposed nominees that is consistent with applicable securities laws.
In the case of an annual meeting of shareholders (including an annual and special 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 meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the 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 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 of shareholders) called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for other purposes), 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 meeting was made.
The Amended and Restated By-Law reflects some housekeeping amendments and amendments that follow certain recommendations by Institutional Shareholder Services, including:

• updating the quorum requirement for a meeting of directors.
The Amended and Restated By-Law is effective immediately and will be submitted to shareholders for confirmation and ratification at the Company's annual and special meeting of shareholders to be held on September 27, 2013. A copy of the Amended and Restated By-Law has been filed under the Company's profile at www.sedar.com.
