    Expresses Concerns with Existing Board's Strategic Direction and Lack of Responsiveness to Shareholder Concerns

    Urges Management Team and Board to Commit to Formal Strategic Review

    Voss Capital, LLC, together with its affiliates ("Voss", "we" or "our"), a top shareholder of Thunderbird Entertainment Group Inc. (CVE: TBRD) ("Thunderbird" or the "Company"), today announced its nomination of up to six directors for election to Thunderbird's Board of Directors (the "Board") at the Company's annual general and special meeting of shareholders, previously scheduled for December 6, 2022 (the "2022 Annual Meeting"). Voss has nominated six highly qualified director candidates to better represent shareholder interests in the boardroom and bring the experience and skills needed to unlock value at Thunderbird through the exploration of a formal strategic review. Voss's highly qualified nominees include Heather Conway, Asha Daniere, Peggy Hwan Hebard, Taylor Henderson, Mark Trachuk and Shannon Valliant (collectively, the "Voss Nominees"). Depending on the total number of directors eligible for election at the 2022 Annual Meeting, we reserve the right to withdraw, not withdraw or nominate additional candidates to the Board, subject to the Company's governing documents and applicable law.

    ***

    Voss has been a shareholder of Thunderbird Entertainment for over two years and currently beneficially owns 13.3% of the Company's shares outstanding. Over the course of our investment, we have closely monitored the Company, followed industry developments, and regularly engaged with Thunderbird's management team. While we have been vocal supporters of the Company and its operational prowess, we are disappointed by the current Board's strategic direction, as well as its apparent lack of urgency to create value and unresponsiveness to shareholder concerns.

    We believe the Thunderbird Board has failed to take advantage of key opportunities for value-creation and is leading the Company in a destructive strategic direction, concerns we believe we share with many shareholders. For example, the Board continues to myopically pursue a failed acquisition strategy focused on buying up smaller studios, rather than recognizing the current M&A landscape of the entertainment industry and the large potential value of Thunderbird in that landscape.

    When Voss has expressed these and other concerns to the Board, we were met with a lack of engagement and did not feel that our suggestions were seriously considered. In fact, one of our recent communications to the Board did not receive a response for nearly three weeks and, when we did hear back, many of the important points we raised (including regarding M&A strategy) were either dismissed or completely ignored. Thunderbird's recent announcement of an up-to-three-month delay of the 2022 Annual Meeting only reinforces this pattern of unresponsiveness and demonstrates the Board's apparent unwillingness to allow shareholders to rightfully and promptly voice their concerns as owners of the Company.

    "While we believe in the work that Jen and the Thunderbird management team are doing, in our view, the current Board's unwillingness to fully explore strategic alternatives for the Company is placing Thunderbird at a significant disadvantage to competitors," said Travis Cocke, Voss's Chief Investment Officer. "We believe that a revitalized and open-minded Board, with deep M&A experience, extensive knowledge of the global media industry, and a focus on creating shareholder value will enable Thunderbird to reach its full potential while continuing to produce the quality creative content they have come to be known for."

    Thunderbird's stock price has languished long enough under the current Board's leadership. Voss's slate of nominees offers shareholders a chance to finally unlock the value of their investment through a formal and thorough review of strategic alternatives. Voss's six nominees have extensive experience in the media industry and have successfully negotiated multiple complex deals in the space.

    We believe it is a pivotal time for Thunderbird and the quickly consolidating media and entertainment industry. We believe the time has come in the company's journey to fully explore strategic alternatives.

    We encourage you to review the Voss Nominees' impressive qualifications below.
