G6 Materials Enters into Strategic Partnership Agreement to Collaborate on Production with MADE Advanced Materials

The Company's Wholly Owned Subsidiary, Graphene Laboratories Inc., Also Expects to Jointly Develop Intellectual Property with MADE Pursuant to the Terms of the SPA and an IP Ownership Agreement

a high-tech company with expertise in advanced materials and developing innovative composites for a wide range of industrial uses, announces that its wholly owned subsidiary, Graphene Laboratories Inc. (“GLI”), has entered into a Strategic Partnership Agreement (the “SPA” or the “Agreement”) with Singapore-based MADE Advance Materials PTE LTD. (“MADE”). The Agreement encapsulates the collaboration between GLI and MADE which is focused on production collaboration and the potential joint development of intellectual property (“Joint IP”).

The key terms of the Agreement include but are not limited to:

• MADE and GLI intend to explore the possibility of using the fibre composites with graphene-enhanced resin (the “Collaborative Project”) as necessary to meet specific terms provided by the third-party client (the “Client”);
• The Collaborative Project shall include three stages – the Development Stage, the Prototype Manufacturing Stage and the Production Stage;
• GLI and MADE agree to share the profits of the Collaborative Project and possible future projects;
• GLI and MADE will each cover its own expenses during the development and manufacturing stages of the Collaborative Project and possible future projects;
• GLI is to provide MADE with advanced materials enhanced with graphene; and
• MADE, based on its extensive experience with manufacturing methods including resin transfer moulding, will incorporate this method when working with G6 and GLI.

GLI and MADE have also signed a Joint Intellectual Property Ownership Agreement (the “Joint IP Agreement”) in conjunction with the SPA. All intellectual property that is mutually made, developed, conceived, first reduced to practice, fixed in any tangible means of expression, or created by MADE and GLI during the term of the Agreement will be considered to be Joint IP. The Joint IP Agreement outlines the specific details in relation to any Joint IP created throughout the Agreement as well as the terms that would survive the Agreement once concluded.

GLI and MADE each bring unique value to the arrangement including, but not limited to:

• GLI has expertise in developing formulations of resins enhanced with graphene nanoplatelets and reduced graphene oxide; and
• MADE has expertise in manufacturing components and structures out of glass and carbon fibre composites using advanced manufacturing methods such as wet layout and resin transfer moulding optimized for utilization of the graphene-enhanced resins.

The Company’s Co-CEOs are among the founders of MADE. Currently, Elena Polyakova, Co-CEO of G6, holds a minor ownership position in MADE. However, MADE operates independently of G6 and neither of G6’s Co-CEOs are involved in the management of MADE.

Management Commentary

“The Strategic Partnership agreement presents a great opportunity for G6 and its employees, shareholders and stakeholders. The combination of MADE’s capabilities with our graphene-based expertise could very well yield some interesting results for the Collaborative Project and other future projects,” said Dr. Daniel Stolyarov, President & Co-CEO of G6 Materials Corp. “We are excited to work with the MADE team throughout the term of the Strategic Partnership Agreement, as well as under the terms of the Joint IP Agreement, with the goal of developing innovative production solutions and valuable intellectual property. I would like to commend the MADE team on their professionalism and look forward to collaborating with them long into the future. We will provide our shareholders with an update about new commercial opportunities evolved from this very important partnership,” added Dr. Stolyarov.

“We are very excited to sign the SPA with Graphene Laboratories. It is an important milestone in our long-lasting partnership,” said Michel Goedegebuure, CEO of MADE. “The combination of our proprietary manufacturing method with graphene-enhanced formulations developed by our partner is a synergy that will allow us to create novel products and find new customers and offer them this that ground-breaking technology to provide them with a solution they desperately need to achieve their business goals,” added Mr. Goedegebuure.
