Sprott Comments on Central Fund of Canada's Decision to Cancel Its Special Meeting for Class A Shareholders

Sprott's Exchange Offers for Central GoldTrust and Silver Bullion Trust Are Unaffected by the Events at CEF and Remain Open for Acceptance

TORONTO, Aug. 18, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sprott Asset Management LP ("Sprott") today commented on Central Fund of Canada Limited's ("CEF") (NYSE MKT:CEF) (TSX:CEF.A) (TSX:CEF.U) decision to cancel its previously scheduled Special Meeting of Class A shareholders, thus denying Class A shareholders the opportunity to express their desire for change. Class A shareholders have a 99.98% economic interest in CEF, a company that is controlled by conflicted directors and common shareholders with less than a 0.02% economic interest.

John Wilson, CEO of Sprott Asset Management LP, stated: "CEF and the Spicer family have taken every single opportunity to oppress the rights of CEF's Class A shareholders, and the decision to cancel the Special Meeting, which was requested by a significant number of Class A shareholders representing more than 13.5 million Class A shares of CEF, is shameful. This Board seems only committed to ensuring that the Spicer-controlled administrator continues to receive fees while all other stakeholders are forced to endure persistent underperformance and value destruction."

Sprott also announced that it has filed a notice of appeal in the Alberta court in connection with last week's decision regarding the meeting requisition submitted by Sprott and other significant holders of Class A shares to CEF's Board of Directors.

In addition to its intended appeal, Sprott, as a significant holder of Class A shares, continues to consider its options with respect to a meeting or other appropriate avenue for Class A shareholders to express their views regarding the governance and performance issues at CEF, particularly in light of the persistent and large trading discount of Class A shares relative to their net asset value -- a discount that is currently in excess of 10.5%.
