Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves and Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources: The mineral reserve estimates reported by the operators were prepared in accordance with Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, as incorporated by reference in National Instr ume nt 43 - 101. RGI has not reconciled the reserve estimates provided by the operatorswith definitions of reserves used by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. 2. While the terms “Mineral Resource,” “Measured Mineral Resource” and “Indicated Mineral Resource” are recognized and required by Can adi an securities regulations, they are not defined terms under standards of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Und er United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “Reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineral iza tion could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve estimation is made. The mineral resources reported he rei n are estimates previously disclosed by the operator, without reference to the underlying data used to calculate the estimates. Accordingly, RGI is not able to reconcile the estimates prepared in reliance on Canadian National Instrument 43 - 101 with terms recognized by the United States S ecurities and Exchange Commission. Readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the measured or indicated mineral resources wi ll ever be converted into mineral reserves . 3.
