Azimut Exploration Inc. Continued Refusal to Engage with Concerned Shareholders or Other Stakeholders

Published

on

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – March 14, 2023) – Coloured Ties Capital Inc. (TSXV: TIE) (OTC Pink: APEOF) (FSE: 97A0) (“Coloured Ties”) (“Ties”) or the (“Companies”) and privately held Bullrun Capital Inc (“Bullrun”) and Bullrun together the (“Concerned Shareholders”) are providing the following open communication to the board of directors and management of Azimut Exploration Inc. (“Azimut”)

CONTINUED REFUSAL TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR ENGAGE WITH CONCERNED SHAREHOLDERS IN ANY CONSTRUCTIVE MANNER

The Concerned Shareholders are substantial shareholders of Azimut. Kal Malhi, CEO of Coloured Ties and Bullrun Capital has made numerous attempts to engage management of Azimut, including CEO Jean Marc Lulin and the rest of the Board of Directors (“the Board”) in conversations to encourage fulsome disclosure of the Azimut exploration plans and activity on the extensive critical minerals land holdings in Quebec. The numerous attempts to engage with management and the Board have had no success and have been met with minimal or no response, including attempts made by the Concerned Shareholders subsequent to their news release of March 3, 2023.

As previously reported, the Concerned Shareholders, through legal counsel, delivered a written request for shareholder engagement together with a request for board representation on February 27, 2023. The only response provided by Azimut was that the Concerned Shareholders were welcome to attend the Azimut booth at PDAC or review the Company website and news releases.

The Concerned Shareholders then arranged for a phone call with the Azimut Chairman of the board and Mr. Lulin. On March 8, 2023 a call was convened but Messers Mullan and Lulin refused to speak about Azimut at all, objecting to the Concerned Shareholders legal counsel being present on the call. The Concerned Shareholders attempted to discuss the fact that Azimut’s critical mineral assets were being given negligible valuation in the capital markets based on Azimut’s lack of development efforts and the Company needed to amend its business practices and fast track the development of its vast critical mineral land holdings in Quebec.

Messers Mullan and Lulin refused to participate in any dialogue.

THE FACTS REMAIN THAT AZIMUT HAS AMASSED A VAST, IMPORTANT LAND HOLDING IN QUEBEC IN THE CRITICAL MINERAL PROSPECTS HOWEVER IT HAS FAILED TO DEVELOP THE PROSPECTS IN THE LAST FOUR YEARS.

The Concerned Shareholders are active investors in Quebec’s Critical Mineral Exploration projects via investments in Junior Exploration Companies that have and are conducting aggressive and ethical exploration programs on ground adjoining and in some cases surrounding ground held by Azimut. These companies have made discoveries that have made James Bay the lithium exploration capital of the world and provided amazing shareholder returns to all investors in the James Bay region.

In contrast, Azimut holds what the Concerned Shareholders believe is the best and most prospective critical minerals ground in the region, and recently Azimut went on a staking frenzy to stake immense amounts of additional ground. Azimut’s stock price has a diminished valuation compared to its peers. This valuation discount reflects the market’s frustration with Azimut’s refusal to explore these vast critical mineral land holdings and its sole focus to expend all its efforts and working capital in searching for gold deposits in remote locations of Quebec.

Mr. Jean Marc Lulin now stands on his insistence that Azimut has been in this region for 20 years and he knows the ground better the anyone. Mr. Jean Marc Lulin now claims that finding lithium deposits is easy and to let other junior exploration companies demonstrate the potential in the area surrounding Azimut land holdings is the way to extract value for these assets held by Azimut. This practice to acquire vast critical mineral land holdings in Quebec and then squat on these highly prospective lands is in direct contrast to others from outside Quebec and Canada who may “know the land less” but have established critical minerals deposits on ground adjoining or surrounding Azimut ground in the last three years.

This belief and business practice by Azimut is not supported by the capital markets, as demonstrated by the dismal valuation of Azimut common share price on the TSX-V stock exchange. Other publicly listed companies from outside Quebec and Canada that are actively exploring and finding large critical minerals deposits in the area are providing lucrative shareholder returns. Azimut’s current market capitalization is a fraction of the value of companies that have been actively exploring for critical minerals in James Bay for the past three to four years while Azimut has been silent and/or oblivious of the critical minerals potential of these assets until the recent Concerned Shareholder actions.

The Concerned Shareholders believe that at a time when not only in Canada/Quebec but rather globally there is a focus on discovering critical mineral deposits, Azimut needs to establish a Board of Directors and Executive teams that are able to help Azimut revamp its business model, actually “EXPLORE” Quebec’s critical mineral wealth with integrity and professionalism and inclusive of ALL stakeholders.

CONCERNED SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL

At present it appears that Azimut is functioning as a private corporation with blind support from its Board of Directors who own very little stock in the Company. Management has demonstrated a lack of ability to understand Azimut’s critical minerals asset base and deploy reasonable business practices to explore those assets and gain investor and industry respect as a credible exploration company. As he has done with the Concerned Shareholders, Mr Lulin has also refused to engage with other junior exploration Companies who are active on projects that adjoin or surround Azimut land holdings and who wish to partner with Azimut on these critical mineral assets. It almost appears as if Mr. Lulin is not willing to explore these amazing assets himself, but is also afraid to let others explore and make discoveries without credit to Mr. Lulin.

The Concerned Shareholders will continue to advocate for a revamp of Azimut’s business practices and insist that the company establish a critical minerals division, engage a qualified critical minerals exploration executive team to run that division and engage in business practices that are respectful of ALL shareholders, adjoining property junior exploration companies and all other stakeholders, including Canada’s current mandate to develop critical minerals assets in Quebec.

MANAGEMENT CLAIMS BLIND SUPPORT FROM THE “LIONS” QUEBEC ESTABLISHMENT

Mr. Jean Marc Lulin continues to refuse to engage with the Concerned Shareholders in ANY capacity and insists he has garnered unwavering shareholder support from Quebec’s investment community to whom he referenced as being the “LIONS” of the Quebec establishment.

The Concerned Shareholders call upon the “LIONS” supporting Azimut and Mr. Jean Marc Lulin’s current business practice of squatting on Quebec’s critical mineral prospects to engage with the Concerned Shareholder to possibly alleviate any misunderstandings to help bring Azimut business practices in line with the interests of all shareholders, the Province of Quebec and Canada’s critical mineral exploration industry and policies. Azimut shareholders, Board of Directors and any other stakeholders are welcome to reach the Concerned Shareholders through the following contacts:

Viktoria Soltesz – Founder at PSP Angels

What has been the most surprising or valuable lesson in your career within the gaming/tech sector?

In my career within the gaming/tech sector, one of the most valuable lessons I’ve learned is the importance of having a payment plan. While analyzing the financial and banking information of various companies, I noticed a recurring pattern: many companies that failed did so due to poor payment and banking practices. They often miscalculated risks, under-budgeted costs, or neglected to set up a proper payment plan. These errors in financial planning were common culprits behind their downfall. What surprised me the most was how easily these businesses could have avoided such failures with proper payment planning. It became evident that many businesses fail for avoidable reasons, and simply taking the time to understand and establish a payment plan can make a significant difference. By paying close attention to the flow of money and investing just a few hours in crafting a solid plan, a business can set itself on a path to success, outperforming much of its competition.

Can you tell us about a project or achievement in your career that you’re particularly proud of?

One of the achievements I’m particularly proud of in my career is the recent launch of my book, “Moving Money – How Banks Think,” which is now available on Amazon. This book is a valuable resource for businesses, emphasizing the often-overlooked importance of banking and payments in today’s competitive landscape. It provides insights into the intricacies of banking decisions, the history of payment systems, and practical guidance on managing funds more safely and cost-effectively. I’m excited to share this knowledge and help businesses make informed decisions in the realm of payments, especially those that are high-risk or startups.

What do you think are the biggest challenges facing the gaming and tech industries today?

In the gaming and tech industries today, one of the most significant challenges is undoubtedly related to payments. While these industries focus heavily on product development, market competition, and marketing strategies, the crucial aspect of payment planning often gets overlooked. This oversight can lead to businesses incurring unnecessary banking fees and facing unexpected operational risks. Understanding the complexities of banking and payment systems is crucial, yet it remains an area with limited knowledge for many in these sectors. Lack of knowledge in this domain can result in poor financial decision-making. As a payment expert, I have observed that addressing these payment-related challenges is essential for the long-term success and sustainability of businesses in the gaming and tech industries. By gaining a better understanding of how payments work and the reasoning behind banking decisions, these industries can navigate financial challenges more effectively and make informed choices, ultimately ensuring smoother operations and cost savings.

What are you most looking forward to at the Prague Gaming & TECH Summit?

I am greatly anticipating the upcoming Prague Gaming & TECH Summit for several compelling reasons. First and foremost, I’m excited about the high-quality content that will be presented during the event. It’s an excellent opportunity to gain valuable insights and knowledge about the gaming and tech industries.

Additionally, I’m looking forward to reconnecting with old acquaintances and making new connections. Networking is a fundamental aspect of such gatherings, allowing us to exchange ideas, share experiences, and forge new professional relationships.

Lastly, I’m eager to hear about the latest industry developments and gossip. Staying informed about the current trends and happenings within the gaming and tech sectors is essential for keeping a competitive edge in these dynamic industries.

Overall, the Prague Gaming & TECH Summit promises to be an enriching and engaging experience, offering valuable content, networking opportunities, and industry insights.

Jakub Tesar – Innovation, Digital & Emerging Tech Lead at EY

What are your top three predictions for the future of gaming and tech industries in the next five years?

  1. The Ethereum ecosystem will evolve into a hub for practical applications, driving large-scale enterprise adoption of blockchain technology.
  2. The growth of Web3 will empower users to have self-custody over virtual collectibles and in-game items, enabling the purchase of ‘phygital’ items that merge the physical and online worlds. This evolution will facilitate free trade on blockchain-powered marketplaces and allow brands to explore new monetization strategies for digital assets.
  3. Generative AI (GenAI) will revolutionize gaming experiences, enabling players to interact with non-player characters (NPCs) in more natural and dynamic ways, and experience storylines that adapt and evolve in real-time.

Can you share a recent innovation in the gaming/tech industry that excites you? What challenges do you think the industry needs to address? The integration of GenAI within gaming environments excites me the most. It offers unprecedented, natural-like interactions with GenAI-based NPCs and allows for fluid, dynamic storylines. However, the industry must navigate the ethical implications of AI, ensuring that these technologies are developed and used responsibly.

What has been the most surprising or valuable lesson in your career within the gaming/tech sector? In my career, the most valuable lesson has been the constant need for innovation and adaptability. The rapid pace at which technology evolves requires a perpetual learning mindset and the willingness to embrace change.

How do you see the role of AI and emerging technologies shaping the gaming and tech industries? AI and emerging technologies are set to fundamentally reshape the gaming and tech industries by introducing more immersive, interactive, and personalized experiences. These technologies will not only enhance gameplay but also offer new avenues for creativity and innovation within the sector.

What advice would you give to someone starting their career in the gaming or tech industry? Never stop learning. The gaming industry, in particular, is characterized by its rapid evolution and innovation. Staying informed and continually enhancing your skills is crucial to staying ahead in this competitive field.

What do you think are the biggest challenges facing the gaming and tech industries today? Addressing the ethical and societal implications of rapid technological advancement, including privacy concerns, data security, and the potential for misuse, remains a significant challenge.

How do you see regulations impacting the gaming and tech industries, and what changes would you like to see? Regulations need to strike a balance between fostering innovation and protecting consumers. I hope to see regulations evolve in a way that supports the ethical development of new technologies while ensuring they are accessible and beneficial to all.

What are you most looking forward to at the Prague Gaming & TECH Summit? I’m eagerly anticipating the opportunity to delve into the latest industry trends, connect with fellow professionals, and share insights on the evolving landscape of gaming and technology.

Is there a specific message or insight you hope attendees will take away from your session? I hope attendees recognize the enduring significance of blockchain technologies and are inspired to explore and experiment with their vast potential for innovative use cases.


Kaspar Szymanski – Founder of SearchBrothers

What do you think are the biggest challenges facing the gaming and tech industries today?

One of the primary challenges in an industry saturated with numerous market players offering similar web platforms and services is effectively defining and communicating a compelling unique selling proposition (USP). While brand building, prioritizing user experience, and optimizing website performance are essential, they are merely steps towards the ultimate goal of offering a service or product that isn’t readily available elsewhere. Moreover, developing a long-term strategy presents a significant challenge in an industry that tends to favor short-term success. The pressure of organizational and market demands often hinders decision-makers from adopting strategies focused on sustainable, gradual growth. This challenge is particularly evident in search engine optimization (SEO), where the goals of long-term growth and meeting immediate organizational needs must be aligned, as search engine algorithms prioritize actual ranking signals over organizational constraints.

What are you most looking forward to at the Prague Gaming & TECH Summit?

I am eager to share the unique insights into Google Search that I gained during my time working for Google, as well as my experiences as a consultant helping clients in competitive niches outperform their competitors. My presentation will include exciting real-life case studies, debunk several myths within the SEO industry, and provide attendees with actionable advice they can immediately apply. I am also looking forward to listening and learning from others, and eagerly anticipate addressing audience questions during the Q&A session following my presentation.

Is there a specific message or insight you hope attendees will take away from your session?

I want my audience to understand that Google penalties are not the end of the world and can be resolved. SEO setbacks, while initially unwelcome, can actually offer an opportunity for significant growth, potentially surpassing any previous rankings on Google Search. These moments can be a hidden blessing, revealing new paths to success. I invite anyone curious about the inner workings of Google Search, how it can benefit your website, and seeking genuine answers to their Google and SEO questions to join my session.


Jasmina Poglavc – Senior Product Manager at Gamanza Group AG & Freelance iGaming Consultant

Can you share a recent innovation in the gaming/tech industry that excites you, and what challenges do you think the industry needs to address?

My background in iGaming platforms and online operations has given me a unique perspective on the transformative potential of advanced data analytics and AI. These technologies promise significant changes, especially in real-time player engagement for iGaming platforms and operators. By analyzing player behavior, preferences, and patterns in real time, we can offer personalized promotions, customized gaming experiences, and targeted loyalty programs. This not only boosts player satisfaction but also optimizes revenue streams.

However, the full realization of these benefits faces challenges, primarily concerning data privacy and security. Protecting sensitive player information is paramount, and navigating the evolving regulatory landscape to align data-driven practices with compliance standards is equally crucial.

What has been the most surprising or valuable lesson in your career within the gaming/tech sector?

Adaptability has been the most valuable lesson in my career. The gaming and tech sectors are incredibly dynamic, with constant evolutions and innovations. Embracing change, remaining agile, and continuously seeking learning opportunities have been essential for navigating challenges and achieving success. Anticipating industry trends and staying informed about technological and regulatory developments are key to staying ahead.

What advice would you give to someone starting their career in the gaming or tech industry?

Stay curious and proactive. Embrace challenges as growth opportunities, keep up with industry trends, and cultivate a strong professional network. Innovation drives the gaming and tech industries, so developing a mindset that embraces change and fosters creativity is crucial.

What do you think are the biggest challenges facing the gaming and tech industries today?

The primary challenges include cybersecurity threats, talent acquisition and retention, and adapting to an evolving regulatory landscape. Balancing innovation with compliance is challenging, as regulations often lag behind technological advancements. A strategic, adaptive approach is essential for navigating these challenges, necessitating proactive engagement with regulators and an awareness of legal frameworks.

How do you see regulations impacting the gaming and tech industries, and what changes would you like to see?

The gaming industry, exemplified by the situation in Germany, faces challenges from overregulation, which can drive players toward unregulated, black-market operators. While regulations are crucial for ensuring fairness and consumer protection, too restrictive an environment can hinder the industry’s growth and inadvertently compromise player safety.

I advocate for regulations that evolve with technological advancements, are harmonized globally, and are developed in collaboration with industry stakeholders. This approach aims to balance consumer protection with innovation, ensuring a thriving, responsible gaming ecosystem.
