CAD Colonial Coal International Corp

Colonial Coal International Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CAD) (the "Corporation" or
"Colonial") is pleased to announce that it will hold an annual general and
special meeting of shareholders (the "AGM") on January 28, 2014. The record date
for shareholders entitled to vote at the AGM is December 17, 2013.


The Corporation also announces that the board of directors of the Corporation
(the "Board") has approved amendments to the Corporation's by-laws to include
advance notice provisions (the "Advance Notice Provisions") which require that
advance notice be provided to the Corporation in circumstances where nominations
of persons for election to the Board are made by shareholders of the Corporation
other than pursuant to: (i) a requisition of a meeting of shareholders made
pursuant to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Alberta); or (ii) a
shareholder proposal made pursuant to the provisions of the Act.


The purpose of the Advance Notice Provisions is to foster a variety of interests
of the shareholders and the Corporation 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 Provisions should assist in facilitating an orderly and efficient
meeting process. The Advance Notice Provisions provide shareholders, directors
and management of the Corporation with a clear framework for nominating
directors. Among other things, the Advance Notice Provisions fix a deadline by
which holders of common shares must submit director nominations to the
Corporation 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 Corporation for the notice to be in proper written form.


In the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, notice to the Corporation 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 the annual meeting is to be held
on a date that is less than 40 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 Corporation 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 Corporation's by-laws are in full force and effect and will be placed before
shareholders at the AGM for ratification. For purposes of the AGM, in accordance
with the terms of the Advance Notice Provisions, the Board has determined that
notice pursuant to section 9A of the by-laws of nominations of persons for
election to the Board at the AGM must be made by December 23, 2013. Such notice
must be in the form, and given in the manner, prescribed by the Advance Notice
Provisions, and the secretary of the Corporation has stipulated
wdf@malaspinaconsultants.com as an email address for receipt of such a notice.
