EASTERN PLATINUM LIMITED ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF SPECIAL COMMITTEE INVESTIGATION

The special committee formed by two independent directors of the board of directors of Eastern Platinum Ltd. to conduct an investigation, review and analysis of unproven whistleblower allegations, including allegations of undisclosed related-party transactions pertaining to the sale of chrome concentrate at discounted prices (the allegations) has completed its investigation.

With assistance from independent counsel engaged and a third party e-discovery specialist to assist with the investigation, the committee found the allegations advanced by the whistleblowers to be unsubstantiated. The committee did not find evidence to establish that the company entered into any related-party transaction pertaining to the sale of chrome concentrate and further concluded that the prices of the contracts in respect of the sale of chrome concentrate described in the allegations were within a reasonable range of market price, particularly in the challenging circumstances the company faced in the latter half of 2022, and taking into account delivery terms and the grade of chrome concentrate.
