assumptions or future events or performance are not statements of historical fact and may be “forward-looking
statements.” Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties which could cause
actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without
limitation: risks related to failure to obtain adequate financing on a timely basis and on acceptable terms; risks
related to the outcome of legal proceedings; political and regulatory risks associated with mining and
exploration; risks related to the maintenance of stock exchange listings; risks related to environmental
regulation and liability; the potential for delays in exploration or development activities or the completion of

consistent with the Resulting Issuer’s expectations; risks related to commodity price fluctuations; and other
risks and uncertainties related to the Resulting Issuer’s prospects, properties and business detailed elsewhere
in 390’s disclosure record. Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in forward-looking
statements. Investors are cautioned against attributing undue certainty to forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof and the Resulting Issuer does not assume any
obligation to update or revise them to reflect new events or circumstances. Actual events or results could differ
