      Provides Update on Rainy River</b></font>
    </p>
    <p>
      TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 1, 2019--<b>New Gold Inc. (&#8220;New Gold&#8221; or
      the &#8220;Company&#8221;) (TSX and NYSE American: NGD)</b> today
      provides an update on the operation of the mill at the Rainy River Mine,
      located in northern Ontario.
    </p>
    <p>
      In the late afternoon on April 24, management at the Rainy River mine
      temporarily shut down the mill to assess a buildup of water in the
      Tailings Management Area (TMA). Upon further examination over the
      ensuing days, it was determined that approximately 700,000 m3 of excess
      water was stored in the TMA, driven by the rapid spring melt and large
      snow pack this year in northern Ontario. To manage the excess water, the
      Company is transferring water from the TMA to the Water Management Pond
      (WMP). Extra pumping capacity has been installed and more pumping
      capacity is being added to expedite the water transfer. It is expected
      that the mill will be fully operational within 5 days, depending on
      precipitation levels during this period. The Company is working with the
      relevant regulators to expedite the deposition of tailings into Cell 3,
      which would significantly improve overall TMA water management. The
      Company has taken advantage of the mill shutdown to accelerate
      maintenance activities that had been planned for later in May.
    </p>
    <p>
      Mining and crushing operations have not been impacted and continue at
      planned levels, with ore being stockpiled and segregated for processing
      when the mill restarts. Management anticipates that any production
      delays will be offset so that the Company will still be in a position to
      achieve its annual production guidance.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;Management is addressing the issue of excess water appropriately and in
      a manner that is consistent with our commitment to protecting our
      environment. We remain focused on executing our current mine plan and
      are confident that the mill will resume normal operations soon,&#8221; stated
      Renaud Adams, CEO.

      In addition to, and subject to, such assumptions discussed in more
      detail elsewhere, the forward-looking statements in this news release
      are also subject to the following assumptions: (1) there being no
      significant disruptions affecting New Gold&#8217;s operations; (2) political
      and legal developments in jurisdictions where New Gold operates, or may
      in the future operate, being consistent with New Gold&#8217;s current
      expectations; (3) the accuracy of New Gold&#8217;s current mineral reserve and
      mineral resource estimates; (4) the exchange rate between the Canadian
      dollar and U.S. dollar, and to a lesser extent, the Mexican Peso, being
      approximately consistent with current levels; (5) prices for diesel,
      natural gas, fuel oil, electricity and other key supplies being
      approximately consistent with current levels; (6) equipment, labour and
      materials costs increasing on a basis consistent with New Gold&#8217;s current
      expectations; (7) arrangements with First Nations and other Aboriginal
      groups in respect of the Rainy River mine and Blackwater project being
      consistent with New Gold&#8217;s current expectations; (8) all required
      permits, licenses and authorizations being obtained from the relevant
      governments and other relevant stakeholders within the expected
      timelines and the absence of material negative comments during the
      applicable regulatory processes; and (9) water pumps at Rainy River
      performing in line with expectations..

      Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on estimates and
      assumptions that are inherently subject to known and unknown risks,
      uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, level of
      activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from
      those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such
      factors include, without limitation: significant capital requirements
      and the availability and management of capital resources; additional
      funding requirements; price volatility in the spot and forward markets
      for metals and other commodities; fluctuations in the international
      currency markets and in the rates of exchange of the currencies of
      Canada, the United States and, to a lesser extent, Mexico; discrepancies
      between actual and estimated production, between actual and estimated
      mineral reserves and mineral resources and between actual and estimated
      metallurgical recoveries; risks related to early production at the Rainy
      River Mine, including failure of equipment, machinery, the process
      circuit or other processes to perform as designed or intended;
      fluctuation in treatment and refining charges; changes in national and
      local government legislation in Canada, the United States and, to a
      lesser extent, Mexico or any other country in which New Gold currently
      or may in the future carry on business; taxation; controls, regulations
      and political or economic developments in the countries in which New
      Gold does or may carry on business; the speculative nature of mineral
      exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining and
      maintaining the validity and enforceability of the necessary licenses
      and permits and complying with the permitting requirements of each
      jurisdiction in which New Gold operates, the lack of certainty with
      respect to foreign legal systems, which may not be immune from the
      influence of political pressure, corruption or other factors that are
      inconsistent with the rule of law; the uncertainties inherent to current
      and future legal challenges New Gold is or may become a party to;
      diminishing quantities or grades of mineral reserves and mineral
      resources; competition; loss of key employees; rising costs of labour,
      supplies, fuel and equipment; actual results of current exploration or
      reclamation activities; uncertainties inherent to mining economic
      studies; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined;
      accidents; labour disputes; defective title to mineral claims or
      property or contests over claims to mineral properties; unexpected
      delays and costs inherent to consulting and accommodating rights of
      Indigenous groups; risks, uncertainties and unanticipated delays
      associated with obtaining and maintaining necessary licenses, permits
      and authorizations and complying with permitting requirements. In
      addition, there are risks and hazards associated with the business of
      mineral exploration, development and mining, including environmental
      events and hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected
      formations, pressures, cave-ins, excess water, flooding and gold bullion
      losses and risks associated with the start of production of a mine, such
      as Rainy River, (and the risk of inadequate insurance or inability to
      obtain insurance to cover these risks) as well as &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221;
      included in New Gold&#8217;s Annual Information Form, MD&amp;A and other
      disclosure documents filed on and available at <u>www.sedar.com</u> and
      on EDGAR at <u>www.sec.gov</u>. Forward-looking statements are not
      guarantees of future performance, and actual results and future events
      could materially differ from those anticipated in such statements. All
      of the forward-looking statements contained in this news release are
      qualified by these cautionary statements. New Gold expressly disclaims
      any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking
      statements whether as a result of new information, events or otherwise,
      except in accordance with applicable securities laws.
