[PR Newswire] – The Board also considered Mr. Mason’s outside board and public company commitments, noting that Mr. Mason has stepped down from one public company board, and the remainder of the boards he sits on are junior TSX Venture Exchange companies which generally require less time commitment of their directors. The Board determined, based on these factors and Mr. Mason’s demonstrated past commitment to the Company, that Mr. Mason would continue to have sufficient time to meet his commitments and provide valuable contributions to the Company. The Board concluded that acceptance of Mr. Mason’s resignation would not be in the best interests of the Company and would represent a significant loss to Great Panther. Accordingly, Mr. Mason will continue as a duly elected director of the Company.
