Elissa Resources Ltd. to Commence Media Campaign for Spectrum's Blade Optics™ Technology

Simultaneously Launch Initial 2016 Investor Awareness Program

VANCOUVER, Feb 09, 2016 - Elissa Resources Ltd. ("Elissa") (TSX VENTURE: ELI) and Spectrum Optix Inc. of Calgary, Canada ("Spectrum" and together with Elissa, the "Companies") are pleased to announce that Elissa has engaged Primoris Group Inc. ("Primoris") to provide national and international media relations services and Equity Marketing Strategies ("Equity") for investor awareness services.

From its office in Toronto, Canada, Primoris will provide a full range of media relations services including the coordination of editorial coverage through print, radio, TV and online media outlets. The editorial coverage will aim to focus on Spectrum's patent pending Blade Optics™ technology.

"With the anticipated delivery of Spectrum's first proof-of-concept prototype approaching, I look forward to bringing national and international attention to the patent pending Blade Optics™ technology." said Paul McKenzie, President and Chief Executive Officer of Elissa.

Equity is based in Vancouver, Canada and has been engaged to provide investor awareness services for Elissa.

Under the leadership of Alexander Smith, a well-known financial commentator reporting on the small-cap space in the North American technology and resource sectors for the past nine years, Equity will coordinate investor awareness programs on behalf of Elissa, primarily targeted towards institutional and retail investors.

Alexander Smith's writings have been syndicated on many of the top online financial hubs across Canada and the United States. He has been instrumental in implementing online marketing programs for several Canadian publicly traded resource and technology companies throughout his career. With extensive experience in building market awareness for small-cap companies, Mr. Smith has created relationships with media and public relations groups as well as institutional and financial professionals involved in the capital markets.

Primoris has been engaged by Elissa for a one year period at a rate of CDN$3,500 per month, subject to early termination upon 30 days' written notice by either party. The agreement is renewable on a month-to-month basis following the initial one-year period. In connection with the approval of its change of business, Elissa will grant Primoris options to purchase 125,000 common shares of Elissa at an exercise price of CDN$0.15 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance.

Equity has been engaged for a one year period at a rate of CDN$6,000 per month. In connection with the approval of its change of business, Elissa will grant to Equity options to purchase 250,000 common shares of Elissa at an exercise price of CDN$0.15 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance (together with the options granted to Primoris, the "Options"). The Options will vest quarterly over the initial year of the option term and are subject to regulatory approval.

Elissa further advises that, in addition to the aforementioned stock option grants to Primoris and Equity, it will also grant incentive stock options to certain of its directors, officers and consultants entitling them to purchase up to 190,000 common shares of Elissa at a price of CDN$0.15 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance.
