Glance CEO Desmond Griffin: Glance Nominees Supported by Both Independent Proxy Advisory Firms

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 31, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Glance Technologies Inc. (CSE:GET.CN) (OTCQB:GLNNF) (FKT:GJT) ("Glance" or the "Company") Chief Executive Officer Desmond Griffin today announced that both of the leading independent proxy advisors have recommended that shareholders vote only the BLUE proxy FOR the Glance nominees (the "Glance Nominees") in a contested election for the Board of Directors.

Glass Lewis & Co., LLC ("Glass Lewis") and Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. ("ISS") are recognized as the leading independent proxy voting and corporate governance advisory firms in both Canada and the United States. Their analyses and recommendations are relied upon by hundreds of major institutional investment firms, mutual funds and fiduciaries throughout North America.

The independent recommendations, based on a careful review of the facts and arguments made by Glance and by the dissident shareholder Penny Green, are intended to assist shareholders in making choices regarding proxy voting decisions.

The Glass Lewis report consists of 18 pages of detailed analysis. In recommending that its clients vote the BLUE proxy FOR the Glance Nominees, Glass Lewis made the following comments:

• "We believe that Ms. Green's attempts to take substantially all of the credit for the Company's share price run-up prior to her ouster, and deflect blame for the Company's share price decline following her departure, is highly disingenuous."
• "We believe the Dissident's acquisition strategy largely amounts to a highly speculative plan that is short on key details."
• "We are highly skeptical of Ms. Green's attempt to draw a decidedly favourable correlation between her presence with the Company and the Company's share price."
• "The Dissident's case is insufficient to warrant rejection of any of the Management Nominees or the support of any of the Dissident Nominees."

The ISS report consists of 21 pages of detailed analysis. In recommending that its clients vote the BLUE proxy FOR the Glance Nominees, ISS made the following points:

• "The Dissident has failed to provide a detailed business plan and has not identified a qualified and credible new management team to run the Company."
• "The Dissident's aggressive acquisition strategy may introduce further risks."
• "The Dissident has failed to make a compelling case that a change in board control is warranted."
• "The proposed Dissident slate does not appear to represent an improvement over the management slate, which includes four independent nominees."
