NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE U.S. OR THROUGH U.S. NEWSWIRES

LL One Inc. (" LLO " or the " Company ") (TSXV: LLO.P), a capital pool company, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement dated November 13, 2020 (the " Definitive Agreement ") with The Limestone Boat Company Inc. (" LBC ") and 2790889 Ontario Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (" Subco "), which shall govern the Company's qualifying transaction (the " Qualifying Transaction ") pursuant to Policy 2.4 Capital P ool Companies (the " Policy ") of the TSX Venture Exchange (the " Exchange "). The Definitive Agreement supersedes the non-binding letter of intent dated October 9, 2020 (the " LOI ") entered into between LLO and LBC.

Overview of the Qualifying Transaction

Pursuant to the Definitive Agreement, the parties will complete a three-cornered amalgamation (the " Amalgamation ") whereby LBC will amalgamate with Subco and, pursuant thereto, all of the common shares of LBC and Class A common shares of LBC (collectively, the " LBC Shares ") will be cancelled and LLO will issue 50 common shares in the capital of the Company (the " LLO Shares "), issued at a deemed issue price of $0.16, in consideration for each such LBC Share so cancelled (the " Exchange Ratio "). In addition, each convertible, exchangeable, or exercisable security of LBC shall be exchanged for a convertible exchangeable, or exercisable security, as applicable, of LLO on substantially the same economic terms and conditions as the original convertible, exchangeable or exercisable security of LBC based on the Exchange Ratio.

The board of directors of each of the companies has agreed to relative pre-money valuations of each of LLO and LBC of $1.952 million and approximately $12.49 million respectively, after giving effect to the Concurrent Financing (as defined and described below) and on the basis of raising the minimum amount thereunder. Assuming that minimum amount of Subscription Receipts (as defined below) are issued pursuant to the Concurrent Financing, the number of LLO Shares to be issued by LLO to acquire LBC is anticipated to be approximately 78,038,600 LLO Shares. Following completion of the Qualifying Transaction, and on the basis that the minimum amount is raised under the Concurrent Financing, it is anticipated that there will be approximately 90,238,600 LLO Shares issued and outstanding, with holders of LBC Shares holding approximately 86.5% of such shares and current holders of LLO Shares holding approximately 13.5%. Additional LLO Shares will be issuable in the event that any in-kind dividend payments are made to holders of LBC Shares on or prior to Closing (as defined below).

The Amalgamation is not a Non Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction pursuant to Section 2.1 of the Policy and, as such, the Company is not required to obtain shareholder approval for the Amalgamation. However, the Company intends to hold its annual and special meeting of shareholders to approve certain matters ancillary to the Amalgamation, including a name change and change in the board of directors, effective upon closing of the Qualifying Transaction (" Closing "), as well as standard annual meeting business. The Company has called the annual and special meeting for December 15, 2020.

It is anticipated that all of the current officers and directors of LLO, with the exception of Alan Gertner will resign from their respective positions with LLO. It is currently anticipated that the insiders of the Resulting Issuer will include: Scott Hanson, as a director and Chief Executive Officer, Telfer Hanson, as Chairman, Donald J. Page, as Chief Financial Officer, Taylor Hanson, as Chief Operating Officer, and the following directors: Charmaine Crooks, Brian Pearson and Charles Pennock.

Upon completion of the Amalgamation, LLO will continue the business of LBC with LBC as its wholly‐owned, operating subsidiary (the Company, after the Amalgamation, referred to herein as the " Resulting Issuer "). Effective on Closing, it is anticipated that the name of the Resulting Issuer will be changed to "The Limestone Boat Company Limited" or such other name as may be acceptable to LBC and the Exchange.

All LLO Shares issued pursuant to the Qualifying Transaction, except those certain LLO Shares issued to U.S. persons who are affiliates (as defined in Rule 144(a)(1) under the United States Securities Act of 1933 , as amended (the " U.S. Securities Act ")) of LBC at the time the Qualifying Transaction is submitted for vote or consent by the shareholders of LBC, will be freely tradable under applicable securities legislation but may be subject to Exchange imposed restrictions on resale.

Certain of the LLO Shares to be issued to the holders of LBC Shares pursuant to the Qualifying Transaction, including up to 100% of the securities to be issued to "Principals" (as defined under applicable laws), may also be subject to escrow provisions imposed pursuant to the policies of the Exchange.

None of the securities to be issued pursuant to the Qualifying Transaction have been or will be registered under the U.S. Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and any securities issued pursuant to the Qualifying Transaction are anticipated to be issued in reliance upon available exemptions from such registration requirements pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable exemptions under state securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.

Concurrent Financing

In connection with the Qualifying Transaction, LBC has entered into an engagement letter dated October 8, 2020 with Beacon Securities Limited (" Beacon "), as lead agent and sole bookrunner, on its own behalf and on behalf of a syndicate of agents which may be formed (the " Agents "), pursuant to which the Agents have agreed to sell, on a commercially reasonable best-efforts private placement basis, subscription receipts (the " Subscription Receipts ") of LBC at a price of $8.00 per Subscription Receipt (the " Issue Price ") for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of a minimum of $2,000,000 and a maximum of $4,000,000, or such other amount as LBC and the Agents may agree. In addition, the Agents have been granted an option to sell up to an additional number of Subscription Receipts at the Issue Price for additional gross proceeds of up to $600,000 (collectively, the " Concurrent Financing ").

LBC has agreed to pay to the Agents a cash fee of 7% of the gross proceeds of the Concurrent Financing and, subject to regulatory approval, to issue to the Agents compensation warrants equal to 10% of the aggregate number of Subscription Receipts issued under the Concurrent Financing. Beacon may, in its sole discretion, elect to receive all of a portion of the cash fee payable to the Agents in Subscription Receipts at the Issue Price.

Advances and Loans

In connection with signing the LOI, LLO advanced $25,000 to LBC, as a non-refundable deposit. Subject to approval from the Exchange, LLO has also agreed to advance to LBC a secured loan in the amount of $200,000. The funds advanced to LBC will be used to cover expenses incurred with the Qualifying Transaction and for general and administrative expenses.
