Forward-Looking Statements
Some of the statements in this news release may constitute "forward-looking information" as defined under applicable
securities laws. These statements reflect Morien's current expectations of future revenues and business prospects and
opportunities and are based on information currently available to Morien. Morien cautions that actual performance will be
affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond its control, and that future events and results may vary
substantially from what Morien currently foresees. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in
forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties described in documents filed by Morien with the Canadian
securities regulators on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) from time to time. Morien cautions that its royalty revenue will be based on
production by third party property owners and operators who will be responsible for determining the manner and timing for the
properties forming part of Morien’s royalty portfolio. These third party owners and operators are also subject to risk factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted herein including: volatility in financial markets or general
economic conditions; capital requirements and the need for additional financing; fluctuations in the rates of exchange for the
currencies of Canada and the United States; prices for commodities including coal and aggregate; unanticipated changes in
production, mineral reserves and mineral resources, metallurgical recoveries and/or exploration results; changes in regulations
and unpredictable political or economic developments; loss of key personnel; labour disputes; and ineffective title to mineral
claims or property. There are other business risks and hazards associated with mineral exploration, development and mining.
Although Morien believes that the forward-looking information contained herein is based on reasonable assumptions (including
assumptions relating to economic, market and political conditions, the Company’s working capital requirements and the
accuracy of information supplied by the operators of the properties in which the Company has a royalty interest), readers
cannot be assured that actual results will be consistent with such statements. Morien expressly disclaims any intention or
obligation to update or revise any forward-looking information in this news release, whether as a result of new information,
events or otherwise, except in accordance with applicable securities laws. All dollar values discussed herein are in Canadian
dollars. Any financial outlook or future-oriented financial information in this news release, as defined by applicable securities
laws, has been approved by management of Morien as of the date of this news release. Such financial outlook or future-
oriented financial information is provided for the purpose of providing information about management's current expectations and
plans relating to the future. Readers are cautioned that such outlook or information should not be used for purposes other than
for which it is disclosed in this news release.
