looking terminology such as “plans”, “expects” or “do es not expect”, “is expected”, “budget”,
“scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, or “believes”, or
variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”,
“would”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”. These forward -looking statements or

Scheme Meeting and the documents prepared by 92E in connection therewith, the receipt of the required
regulatory, stock exchange (including the CSE, TSX Venture Exchange and Australian Securities

Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of assumptions that, while considered
reasonable by management at the time, are inherently subject to business, market and economic risks,
uncertainties and contingencies that may cause actual results, performance, or achievements to be

from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not
to be as anticipated, estimated, or intended. There can be no assurance that such information will prove
to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such
statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information.
Such statements represent the current views of ATHA and 92E with respect to future events and are
necessarily based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by
ATHA and 92E, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, political, and social
risks, contingencies, and uncertainties. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to the
following: inability of ATHA and 92E to finalize meeting materials and/or obtain the requisite
shareholder approvals; inability of ATHA and 92E to complete the Scheme or satisfy certain conditions
precedent thereto; the inability of ATHA to satisfy all conditions to its proposed listing on the TSX Venture
Exchange; a material adverse change in the timing of any completion and the terms and conditions upon
which the Scheme is completed; inability to satisfy or waive all conditions to closing the Scheme; 92E
Shareholders not approving the Scheme; the CSE and/or the TSX Venture Exchange not providing

shares; changes to ATHA’s and/or 92E’s current and future business and exploration plans and the
strategic alternatives available thereto; growth prospects and outlook of the business of each of ATHA
