LLG Mason Resources Inc

Mason Graphite Inc. ("Mason Graphite" or the “Company") (TSX.V: LLG; OTCQX: MGPHF) would like to thank shareholders for the strong show of confidence they have displayed through their votes to date. Along with Mason Graphite’s largest investors, shareholders are recognizing the value in the Company’s strategic planning and strong cash position that benefit all shareholders. Furthermore, they recognize that Management’s balanced slate of nominees are the ones who are delivering.

Vote FOR Management: The Team with a Coherent and Well-Articulated Plan

Before casting their votes, shareholders should continue to be advised of the following:

• Go Forward Plan. Mason Graphite’s board of directors (the “Board”) has illustrated a clear and detailed path forward by adding a value-added product strategy and plan which will allow for the delivery of superior shareholder value. The Board is committed to ensuring the Company becomes a sustainable, profitable and value-added producer in the strategic minerals sector.
• Management’s Fiduciary Duty to ALL Shareholders. The plan outlined above has always been and will continue to be, to serve and sustain shareholder value for ALL shareholders. The Board has engaged a strategic advisory firm to assist it in the evaluation of several potential strategic partners in the battery and mining industries. The judicious use of funds to provide Mason Graphite with a very strong cash position that holds no debt allows Mason Graphite to have a dominant position in its endeavours going forward.
• Result-Oriented. The Board is mindful of the difficult graphite market conditions, the challenges related to financing the mine construction and the highly dilutive impact on existing shareholders. Backed by sound technical and economic studies, the Company is taking a leadership role in the graphite mining and transformation sector for the benefit of all its stakeholders and returning profitability to shareholders. For example, the Company’s December 15, 2020 press release about its spherical coated graphite product reaching key test targets for electric vehicle applications.

While Mason Graphite has a plan and the right team to execute it, Mason Graphite would like to express what has been echoed by several institutional investors as well as the proxy advisory firms Glass Lewis and ISS. Specifically, Al-Tamimi has yet to provide a clear strategic or business plan going forward, proposes a self-serving board which lacks adequate industry experience and has no background in Quebec-based mining.
