These forward-looking statements may include statements regarding perceived merit of our properties, exploration results and budgets, mineral reserves and resource estimates, work programs, capital expenditures, operating costs, cash flow estimates, production estimates and similar statements relating to the economic viability of a project, timelines, strategic plans, including our plans and expectations relating to the Donlin Gold and Galore Creek projects, completion of transactions, market prices for precious and base metals, or other statements that are not statements of fact. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management. Statements concerning mineral resource estimates may also be deemed to constitute "forward-looking statements" to the extent that they involve estimates of the mineralization that will be encountered if the property is developed.</div>

</div>

<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">In February 2015, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) guidance was issued to amend current consolidation guidance. The amendments affect both the variable interest entity and voting interest entity consolidation models and primarily relate to: limited partnerships and similar legal entities; evaluating fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as a variable interest; the effect of fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination; the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination; and certain investment funds. The Company determined that these changes did not have an impact on its previous consolidation analysis and elected early adoption of the new standard effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2016. Application of the new guidance had no impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.</div>

<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">In February 2016, ASC guidance was issued to amend lease accounting guidance. The new guidance amends the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases and amends disclosure requirements associated with leasing arrangements. The new guidance is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients. Transition will require application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements.</div>

<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">In January 2016, ASC guidance was issued to amend the guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. The new guidance significantly revises an entity's accounting related to the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. The new guidance also amends certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments. The new guidance is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018. Early adoption for most of the provisions is not allowed. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements.</div>

Preparation of the applications for some of these permits and approvals requires additional, more detailed engineering that were not part of the Donlin Gold feasibility study. Completion of this engineering will require a significant investment of funds, time, and other resources by Donlin Gold and its contractors. Also, the Donlin Gold board must approve a construction program and budget before construction of the Donlin Gold project can begin. The timing of the required engineering work and the Donlin Gold board's approval of a construction program and budget, the receipt of all required governmental permits and approvals, the availability of financing, among other factors, will affect whether and when construction of the Donlin Gold project will begin. Among other reasons, project delays could occur as a result of public opposition, limitations in agency staff resources during regulatory review and permitting, or project changes made by Donlin Gold.</div>

General and administrative expense decreased by $1.2 million, primarily due to lower share-based compensation costs compared to the prior year. Our share of losses at the Donlin Gold project decreased by $0.5 million, as 2016 activities continued to focus primarily on permitting and the draft EIS public comment period.</div>

<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">In the first quarter of 2016, cash and term deposits decreased by $9.8 million. The decrease was primarily related to $7.7 million used in operating activities for administrative costs, withholding taxes on vested performance share units and working capital changes, $1.9 million to fund Donlin Gold and $0.2 million to fund Galore Creek. The term deposits are denominated in U.S. dollars and are held at two Canadian chartered banks.</div>

<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Cash used in operations increased by $2.1 million, primarily due to higher withholding taxes paid on performance share units vested, partially offset by reductions in working capital. Cash used to fund affiliates decreased by $0.5 million due to the timing of funding requirements at Donlin Gold. No cash was used in financing activities in the first quarter of 2016 or 2015.</div>

The amendments&#13;affect both the variable interest entity and voting interest entity consolidation models and primarily relate to: limited partnerships&#13;and similar legal entities; evaluating fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as a variable interest; the effect of&#13;fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination; the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination;&#13;and certain investment funds. The Company determined that these changes did not have an impact on its previous consolidation analysis&#13;and elected early adoption of the new standard effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2016. Application&#13;of the new guidance had no impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify; background-color: white; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify; background-color: white"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Recently issued&#13;accounting pronouncements&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Leases&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In February 2016, ASC guidance was issued&#13;to amend lease accounting guidance. The new guidance amends the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for&#13;those leases classified as operating leases and amends disclosure requirements associated with leasing arrangements. The new guidance&#13;is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted&#13;using a modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients. Transition will require application of&#13;the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance&#13;and the impact on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Classification and Measurement of Financial&#13;Instruments&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In January 2016, ASC guidance was issued&#13;to amend the guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. The new guidance significantly revises an&#13;entity's accounting related to the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain&#13;fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. The new guidance also amends certain disclosure requirements&#13;associated with the fair value of financial instruments. The new guidance is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning&#13;December 1, 2018. Early adoption for most of the provisions is not allowed. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance and&#13;the impact on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;</us-gaap:SignificantAccountingPoliciesTextBlock>

The new guidance amends the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for&#13;those leases classified as operating leases and amends disclosure requirements associated with leasing arrangements. The new guidance&#13;is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted&#13;using a modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients. Transition will require application of&#13;the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented.

The new guidance significantly revises an&#13;entity's accounting related to the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain&#13;fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. The new guidance also amends certain disclosure requirements&#13;associated with the fair value of financial instruments. The new guidance is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning&#13;December 1, 2018. Early adoption for most of the provisions is not allowed.

The amendments&#13;affect both the variable interest entity and voting interest entity consolidation models and primarily relate to: limited partnerships&#13;and similar legal entities; evaluating fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as a variable interest; the effect of&#13;fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination; the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination;&#13;and certain investment funds. The Company determined that these changes did not have an impact on its previous consolidation analysis&#13;and elected early adoption of the new standard effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2016. Application&#13;of the new guidance had no impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.&lt;/p&gt;</NG:RecentlyAdoptedAccountingPronouncements>

Exploration costs may be incurred both before acquiring the related property (sometimes referred to in part as prospecting costs) and after acquiring the property. Principal types of exploration costs, which include depreciation and applicable operating costs of support equipment and facilities and other costs of exploration activities, are: (i) Costs of topographical, geographical and geophysical studies, rights of access to properties to conduct those studies, and salaries and other expenses of geologists, geophysical crews, and others conducting those studies. Collectively, these are sometimes referred to as geological and geophysical or "G&amp;G" costs. (ii) Costs of carrying and retaining undeveloped properties, such as delay rentals, ad valorem taxes on properties, legal costs for title defense, and the maintenance of land and lease records. (iii) Dry hole contributions and bottom hole contributions. (iv) Costs of drilling and equipping exploratory wells. (v) Costs of drilling exploratory-type stratigraphic test wells.</p></div>

<p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify">In February 2015, Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) guidance was issued to amend current consolidation guidance. The amendments
affect both the variable interest entity and voting interest entity consolidation models and primarily relate to: limited partnerships
and similar legal entities; evaluating fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as a variable interest; the effect of
fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination; the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination;
and certain investment funds. The Company determined that these changes did not have an impact on its previous consolidation analysis
and elected early adoption of the new standard effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2016. Application
of the new guidance had no impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.</p>

<p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify">In February 2016, ASC guidance was issued
to amend lease accounting guidance. The new guidance amends the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for
those leases classified as operating leases and amends disclosure requirements associated with leasing arrangements. The new guidance
is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted
using a modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients. Transition will require application of
the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance
and the impact on its consolidated financial statements.</p>

<p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify">In January 2016, ASC guidance was issued
to amend the guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. The new guidance significantly revises an
entity's accounting related to the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain
fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. The new guidance also amends certain disclosure requirements
associated with the fair value of financial instruments. The new guidance is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning
December 1, 2018. Early adoption for most of the provisions is not allowed. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance and
the impact on its consolidated financial statements.</p><span></span>

its accruals and disclosures with respect to loss contingencies. Accordingly, estimated losses from loss contingencies are accrued
by a charge to income when information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that
a liability could be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the contingency
are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is
made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.</p>

<p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify">In February 2016, ASC guidance was issued
to amend lease accounting guidance. The new guidance amends the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for
those leases classified as operating leases and amends disclosure requirements associated with leasing arrangements. The new guidance
is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted
using a modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients. Transition will require application of
the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance
and the impact on its consolidated financial statements.</p>

<p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify">In January 2016, ASC guidance was issued
to amend the guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. The new guidance significantly revises an
entity's accounting related to the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain
fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. The new guidance also amends certain disclosure requirements
associated with the fair value of financial instruments. The new guidance is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning
December 1, 2018. Early adoption for most of the provisions is not allowed. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance and
the impact on its consolidated financial statements.</p>

Consolidation Analysis</i></p>

<p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 8pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: justify">In February 2015, Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) guidance was issued to amend current consolidation guidance. The amendments
affect both the variable interest entity and voting interest entity consolidation models and primarily relate to: limited partnerships
and similar legal entities; evaluating fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as a variable interest; the effect of
fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination; the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination;
and certain investment funds. The Company determined that these changes did not have an impact on its previous consolidation analysis
and elected early adoption of the new standard effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2016. Application
of the new guidance had no impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.</p><span></span>
