Mayfair Gold Corp. (“Mayfair” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: MFG; OTCQB: MFGCF) is pleased to announce that the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”) today has set aside the ex parte order (the “Muddy Waters Order”) obtained by Muddy Waters Capital LLC (“Muddy Waters”) and dismissed Muddy Waters’ application that the Court grant a new injunction.

As previously disclosed by the Company, on May 27, 2024, Muddy Waters obtained the Muddy Waters Order from the Court which restricted the distribution of funds held in trust of approximately $4.0 million (the “Change of Control Payments”) representing the aggregate termination payment payable to certain of the Company’s management and employees (the “Terminating Employees”) under their employment agreements in respect of a change of control.

On June 3, 2024, the Company brought a successful application before the Court to have the Muddy Waters Order set aside thus permitting the Company to uphold its contractual obligations under the Settlement Agreement between the Company and the Terminating Employees dated May 6, 2024 (the “Settlement Agreement”), and the Company’s employment agreements with the Terminating Employees. The Court also dismissed Muddy Waters’ application to grant a new injunction to restrict the distribution of the Change of Control Payments.

In its oral reasons, the Court found that Muddy Waters failed to make full and frank disclosure on the ex parte application and failed to establish a strong prima facie case regarding their claim that the Company had acted in an oppressive manner to Muddy Waters. The setting aside of the Muddy Waters Order removes the restriction on the distribution of the Change of Control Payments.

Harry Pokrandt, Chairman of the Board, Mayfair Gold, commented: “We are pleased that the Supreme Court of British Columbia has agreed with us and found Muddy Waters’ costly and unnecessary litigation to be without merit. I commend the Company’s employees for their continued focus and dedication to the Company in the face of Muddy Waters’ distracting and antagonizing lawsuit aimed at interfering with their contractual rights.”

For more information regarding the Muddy Waters Order, the Settlement Agreement and the Change of Control Payments please see the Company’s news releases dated May 29, 2024, May 9, 2024 and the Company’s management information circular dated May 6, 2024 (the “Circular”).
