("GRAT" or the "Company") (TSXV:GRAT)(FRA:CB81)(WKN:A143MR) wishes to provide an update on the Press Release issued May 21, 2020 relating to the coronavirus pandemic ("COVID-19") as it affects the Company and the status of the filing of its annual financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis, and related CEO and CFO certifications, for the financial year ended December 31, 2019 (the "Annual Filings"). The Annual Filings have been completed. Arno Brand, CEO of Gratomic stated "we would like to thank our auditors, D & H Group LLP, who were able to coordinate an on-site review of the exploration assets at our Aukam Property during this pandemic as part of their audit and who's staff went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that the audit was completed on time."

The Company anticipates filing its interim financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis, and related CEO and CFO certifications, for the first quarter of 2020 ending March 31, 2020 (the "Interim Filings") by July 15, 2020. The Company issued the required press release to obtain an extension pursuant to Ontario Instrument 51-502 Temporary Exemption from Certain Corporate Finance Requirements (the "OSC Temporary Exemption")

The lockdown resulting from the outbreak of COVID-19 has created unprecedented disruptions in the global economy and stock markets.
