S Sherritt International Corporation

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN
THE UNITED STATES


Sherritt International Corporation ("Sherritt" or "the Corporation") (TSX:S)
today advised shareholders to simply ignore dissident nominee George Armoyan's
latest false and inflammatory communication.


Sherritt obviously takes great exception to Mr. Armoyan's characterization of
the facts but does not intend to rehash these issues yet again. Sherritt is
disappointed by Mr. Armoyan's propensity to continue to make reckless and
unfounded allegations, which is neither consistent with serving as a director of
a large, multinational corporation such as Sherritt, nor in the interests of
shareholders.


Sherritt recommends that shareholders rely on the well-reasoned and objective
advice provided by leading independent proxy advisory firms Institutional
Shareholder Services and Glass, Lewis & Co. Representatives of ISS, before
making their recommendations, spoke to Sherritt's President and CEO David Pathe
and Sherritt's Chairman Hap Stephen as well as to Mr. Armoyan or his
representatives. Both firms carefully reviewed all public disclosure and
recommended voting FOR Sherritt's director nominees on the BLUE proxy and
AGAINST Mr. Armoyan and his other nominees.


Proxy Voting Instructions

Regardless of how many Sherritt shares you own, it is important you vote your
BLUE proxy. Even if you have already voted using the Green Dissident form of
proxy, you can still change your vote by voting the BLUE proxy, as only the
latest dated proxy will be counted at the meeting.


We encourage shareholders to vote the control number found on your BLUE proxy
FOR Sherritt's nominees, no later than 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on Friday, May
2, 2014.
