Forward Looking Statements
2

    This presentation contains certain statements that may be deemed "forward-looking
    statements". All statements in this document, other than statements of historical fact, that
    address events or developments that the Company expects to occur, are forward looking
    statements. Forward looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and are
    generally, but not always, identified by the words "expects", "plans", "anticipates",
    "believes", "intends", "estimates", "projects", "potential" and similar expressions, or that
    events or conditions "will", "would", "may", "could" or "should" occur.

    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 may differ materially from those in the forward-
    looking statements. Factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from
    those in forward looking statements include, failure to successfully negotiate or
    subsequently close such transactions, inability to obtain required shareholder or regulatory
    approvals, uncertainty with respect to findings under exploration programs and general
    economic, market or business conditions. 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. Forward looking
    statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company's management
    on the date the statements are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update
    these forward-looking statements in the event that management's beliefs, estimates or
    opinions, or other factors, should change.
