LI-METAL ANNOUNCES SENIOR MANAGEMENT CHANGES

Li-Metal Corp. has appointed Richard Halka to the role of chief financial officer, effective immediately.

Mr. Halka brings with him more than 30 years of accounting, corporate finance and capital raising experience. He has led a number of public and private companies through periods of rapid growth, strategic realignment, financial restructuring and organizational change.

"Li-Metal is pleased to announce the appointment of Richard, an experienced senior finance leader in Canada's clean technology sector, to the role of CFO," said Srini Godavarthy, CEO of Li-Metal. "Richard has a strong track record of implementing and executing strategic financial objectives for publicly traded companies and we look forward to leveraging his expertise as we advance our anode business and scale up lithium metal production. I am excited to work closely with Richard as we position Li-Metal to deliver long-term value to all stakeholders."

Prior to joining Li-Metal, Mr. Halka held the role of Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at TSX-listed Electrovaya Inc. overseeing public offerings, restructuring of debt and other capital market transactions. During this time, he also served on the Global Affairs Canada Clean Technology Advisory Group, providing advice to the Canadian Trade Commissioner Service and Global Affairs Canada on a range of issues concerning Canada's clean technology industry.

Earlier in his career, Mr. Halka held senior executive roles in real estate, telecommunications and technology, leading operational integration, revenue and cost-reduction, financial planning, treasury and budgeting initiatives. He has acquired both a Chartered Professional Account and a Chartered Account Designation in Canada and earned his BA from Wilfrid Laurier University.

Mr. Halka succeeds Li-Metal's current Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary, Carlos Pinglo, who has decided to retire.

"On behalf of the Board and executive management team, I would like to thank Carlos for his contributions to Li-Metal," continued Dr. Godavarthy. "Carlos helped take Li-Metal from a newly listed company to an organization with a robust growth strategy and a clear roadmap to product commercialization. We wish him the very best in his retirement."
