MAYFAIR GOLD CORP - MFGCF STOCK NEWS

Mayfair Gold announced that the Supreme Court of British Columbia has overturned an ex parte order obtained by Muddy Waters Capital. This order, dated May 27, 2024, had restricted the distribution of $4 million in termination payments to certain employees.

The court found that Muddy Waters failed to provide full disclosure and dismissed their request for a new injunction. This decision allows Mayfair Gold to fulfill its contractual obligations to these employees as per the Settlement Agreement dated May 6, 2024. The ruling removes any restrictions on the distribution of these funds.

Chairman Harry Pokrandt stated that the court's decision confirms the meritless nature of Muddy Waters' lawsuit.

This could result in approximately $2.47 million, part of a larger $4.0 million Change of Control Payment, being returned to the company. An ex parte order by Muddy Waters Capital currently restricts the distribution of these funds. The final decision hinges on the outcome of negotiations and the upcoming annual general meeting on June 5, 2024. Shareholders are advised to vote by June 3, 2024.
