Both ISS and Glass Lewis are independent proxy advisory firms who, among other
services, provide proxy voting recommendations to pension funds, investment
managers, mutual funds and other institutional shareholders. In its analysis,
ISS said that: 


"A vote FOR this proposed merger is warranted because of the sizable premium,
the thorough sales process, and the fairness opinion which states the
consideration is fair from a financial point of view."(i)




    Trelawney's board of directors has recommended that shareholders vote   
                            FOR the Arrangement                             



Shareholders are reminded to vote their proxy FOR the Arrangement prior to the
proxy voting deadline of Wednesday, June 13, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time). 


The completion of the proposed Arrangement is subject to a number of customary
conditions, including approval of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the
receipt of all necessary shareholder and regulatory approvals. On May 17, 2012,
an advance ruling certificate was received from the Commissioner of Competition
with respect to the Arrangement and on May 29, 2012, the Company received
conditional approval (subject to customary conditions) from the TSX Venture
Exchange with respect to the Arrangement.
