Copper One Inc. Adopts Advance Notice Policy

MONTREAL, 05/14/13 - Copper One Inc.'s (TSX VENTURE: CUO) ("Copper One" or the "Company") Board of Directors has approved an amendment to the Company's by-laws to include an advance notice policy (the "Policy"), which Policy includes a provision that requires advance notice to the Company in circumstances where nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors are made by shareholders of the Company other than pursuant to: (i) a requisition of a meeting made pursuant to the provisions of the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "Act"), or (ii) a shareholder proposal made pursuant to the provisions of the Act.

Among other things, the Policy 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 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 no 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 Policy is intended to:

1.  facilitate an orderly and efficient annual general or special meeting
    process;
2.  ensure that all shareholders receive adequate notice of the director
    nominations and sufficient information regarding all director nominees;
    and
3.  allow shareholders to register an informed vote after having been
    afforded reasonable time for appropriate deliberation.

The Policy is effective immediately and will be placed before Copper One's shareholders for approval at the next annual shareholder meeting scheduled to be held on June 17, 2013.

The full text of the Policy is available via SEDAR at www.sedar.com or upon request by contacting the Corporate Secretary of the Company at 416-309-2898.
