CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This news release includes certain “forward-looking information” and “forward-looking statements”
(collectively, “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities
legislation. All statements in this news release that address events or developments that we expect to
occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that are
not historical facts and are generally, although not always, identified by words such as "expect", "plan",
"anticipate", "project", "target", "potential", "schedule", "forecast", "budget", "estimate", "intend" or
"believe" and similar expressions or their negative connotations, or that events or conditions "will",
"would", "may", "could", "should" or "might" occur. All such forward-looking statements are based on the
opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made. Forward-looking
statements in this news release include statements regarding, among others, the terms and completion of
the Private Placement, raising the minimum and maximum amounts of the Private Placement, the
payment of finder’s fees and issuance of finder’s securities, the anticipated closing date and the planned
use of proceeds for the Private Placement. Although the Company believes the expectations expressed in
such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not
guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in
forward-looking statements include the ability to obtain regulatory approval for the Private Placement,
the state of equity markets in Canada and other jurisdictions, market prices, exploration successes, and
continued availability of capital and financing and general economic, market or business conditions. These
forward-looking statements are based on a number of assumptions including, among other things,
assumptions regarding general business and economic conditions, the timing and receipt of regulatory
and governmental approvals, the ability of the Company and other parties to satisfy stock exchange and
other regulatory requirements in a timely manner, the availability of financing for the Company’s proposed
transactions and programs on reasonable terms, and the ability of third-party service providers to deliver
services in a timely manner. Investors are cautioned that any such statements are not guarantees of future
performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-
looking statements, and accordingly undue reliance should not be put on such statements due to the
inherent uncertainty therein. The Company does not assume any obligation to update or revise its forward-
looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future or otherwise, except as required by
applicable law.
