<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><I>All statements, other than statements of
historical fact, contained or incorporated by reference in this news release, including any information as to the future performance
of Kinross, constitute &#8220;forward-looking statements&#8221; within the meaning of applicable securities laws, including the
provisions of the Securities Act (Ontario) and the provisions for &#8220;safe harbour&#8221; under the United States Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are based on expectations, estimates and projections as of the date of this news release. Forward-looking
statements include, without limitation, expected or possible events, or statements with respect to expected or possible events.
The word &#8220;intends&#8221;, or statements that certain actions, events or results &#8220;may&#8221;, &#8220;could&#8221;,
&#8220;would&#8221; or &#8220;might&#8221; and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements
are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Kinross as of the date of
such statements, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Many
of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect, and could cause, Kinross&#8217; actual results to differ materially from
those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, Kinross. These factors are not intended
to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect Kinross. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements
will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.
All of the forward-looking statements made in this news release are qualified by these cautionary statements. Kinross disclaims
any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or to explain any material difference between subsequent
actual events and such forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable law.&nbsp;</I></P>
