POET Technologies Inc. (TSX VENTURE:PTK)(OTCQX:POETF) ("the Company") announces
the following:


The Annual Report for the Year ended December 31st, 2013 has been filed on SEDAR.

The Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders ("AGSM") is scheduled for
9:00 am on Tuesday, August 12, 2014 at the Nathan Hale Inn and Conference
Center, 855 Bolton Road, Storrs-Mansfield, Connecticut. The Record Date for
voting and receiving notice of the AGM has been set at July 2, 2014. The Company
will be using the "Notice and Access" method for this upcoming AGSM, whereby
only the proxy will be mailed to shareholders and the Information Circular will
be available for download from the Company's website at
www.poet-technologies.com/agm following the said mailing. The proxy will be
mailed to Shareholders on or about July 11, 2014 and will contain the details of
the meeting and the instructions for downloading the Information Circular or
requesting a hard copy.


The Company's Transfer Agent will be mailing proxies to the Registered
Shareholders (holding physical share certificates) and a Voting Instruction Form
(VIF) to the NOBO Shareholders (who have consented to having their broker
release the details of their shareholdings to the Company). Shareholders will be
able to vote online, by fax or by mail. The OBO Shareholders (who have requested
to remain anonymous) may, at the discretion of their broker, receive a VIF
mailed by the Broker or his agent. Shareholders receiving a VIF will be required
to submit their VIF within the time frame set out in the VIF. If they wish to
attend the AGM and vote personally, they must appoint themselves as proxyholder.


Shareholders may want to contact their broker to verify whether they are on the
NOBO or OBO list and, if desired, request a change of their status before the
Record Date.


Following the AGM, shareholders will again this year be provided with the
opportunity to tour the ODIS lab facility showcasing the intricacy of the POET
breakthrough technology.


If you plan to attend the AGM and wish to stay overnight at the Nathan Hale Inn,
please call them directly to make a reservation (tel: 860-427-7888). There are a
limited number of rooms being held for POET shareholders. Identify yourself as
part of the POET Group to receive the reduced rate being offered on a first come
first serve basis.
